I took the rear seats out as I didn't see the point in carrying around something I never used and they're quite heavy. Other than that given I'm a lardy b*****d myself I don't see much point unless I'm going to do something which will properly strip weight out of it like GRP panels etc.

Heh, was the best way I could think to describe that feel of instant shove you get from it without going all motoring journalist :)

Keep the 172. 197 is great but it doesn't have that over-engined feel of the older cars, it's just a bit less exciting.

They should be fine, just make sure they move freely and don't have tons of corrosion on them.

You should be able to just download the tool again, there are some links in my previous post in the thread. Hope it works :)

Thats really weird. (I'm just full of helpful comments ;) ) More details on the process here: http://arstechnica.co.uk/gadgets/2015/07/how-to-do-a-clean-install-of-windows-10-from-windows-7-and-8/

I ran PS3s for my first track day and they stand up really well, they just don't have the grip of something like the AD08R. It's much more of a road tyre in terms of grip and wear. @mark smith87

Yes, you do the upgrade, then run the upgrade tool again and select the create media option. You can then do a clean install. You must upgrade first and make sure win 10 is activated or your clean install won't be recognised as genuine. When it asks you for the product key during the install...

AD08R is an ideal road/track compromise. Great tyres.

Windows 8 was really solid under the skin, plenty of performance improvements etc, but they shagged the UI big time. It's still not quite there in 10, but it's much, much better. I'd go from 7 to 10 in a heartbeat just for the performance gain in gaming which is reckoned at around 10 to 20...

Rear wheels definitely look locked. What a t**t.

I feel your pain BTW OP, my ADSL here is only about 1Mb and I was used to fibre. I had to wait for the local cabinet to be upgraded before I got an order slot for fibre, took three months. Still, it's OK now. I remember the days when 256kB seemed like light speed, how things change ;) In all...

A lot of suppliers seem to be going that way now, 40 down 2 up is getting common on the cheaper BT-based fibre services. Fine for streaming etc but if you use cloud storage or P2P services it blows. It saves them money and they can still advertise the high headline download speeds.

If it's bulky stuff try Paisley Freight

Nice, you'll not go far wrong with anything from Onkyo as a general rule :)

Given the tiny difference in price I'd go genuine, the saving isn't worth a punt on some random no-name parts IMO. It's hard to tell from the pictures but the ball joints don't appear to have the extra caster either.

Nothing on the Clio, but washed and waxed the Alpina. First time waxing a car ever, I'm getting a bit worried about myself. I'll be buying snow foam and clay bars next.

It just didn't work at all, no reading whatsoever. The sender was OK so it was easier and cheaper just to replace the clocks than to try and get them repaired. Did Bedford yesterday, the CGLock worked really well and the new gear lever was brilliant. I was much, much quicker than last time out...

Caned the living s**t out of it round Bedford, scrubbed two 888's to almost completely slick, grinned like a fool the whole time :)

Have a look in the battery usage option in settings, you might find it's a particular app which doesn't play nice with 8.4.

I like the exhaust very much, just found it too much with the decat on it too. Mine is a non-resonated system and some of the interior is stripped which didn't help with the noise. :)

Got the car out of the garage for a pre-trackday check over. Pressures and levels all spot on. Loving the new ash/scenic gear shifter even more. Can't wait to get it out on track tomorrow.

Yeah if you've been running 95 RON for a while on a 98 RON map...... compression test definitely a good idea.

I think the current clamp will be fine - when my mechanic fitted mine he didn't charge me for a different clamp and said it bolted straight on. I had it taken off again a bit later though, the noise was just bloody irritating :)

Yeah, I do prefer iOS. But then the Galaxy has a much better camera, screen and 32gb of storage vs 16. Hopefully the 6S/7 will match it.

Just wondering if maybe the seal on the dipstick itself has failed, is it still quite stiff to pull out or does it slide out easily? (Ooh-er missus ;) )

No, you're right. Apple Pay works just like any other contactless payment - you're just authorising the payment and authenticating the account. The phone doesn't need to do anything over the mobile network. Work are just about to upgrade our phones, it'll be a choice of Galaxy S6 or iPhone...

Pilot sport is a good shout. AD08R is noticeably grippier and is a good road tyre as long as you keep it out of standing water. T1-R was pretty good in it's day, but that was a bloody long time ago. ;)

Any fault codes/warning lights on? Mine held back far more noticeably with RSTuner map on it with the EML lit compared to when the car wasn't mapped. My front lambda is intermittently refusing to give a sensible reading, it's obviously dying so could be the same issue you're having.
