i love falkens, i rate em very highly, in the wet too. only other tyres ive tried are avons and personally i reckon the are awful. even worse in the wet, the car drifts accross the road on em, pathetic. i wouldnt mind tryin out some toyo proxies tho........or some bridgestones. Ray

lol it deffo aint light on fuel, im gettin 4mpg :o but i think thats also cos theres no speedo cable hooked up and it cant read the new mpg it should be gettin. lofty mate, after it had snapped, how did u get it out, cos the black clips at the gearbox end are sadly no longer with us and the...

man finally the beast is back on the road, and it bloody flys, the group N is sooo durable, feels like u can really go to town on it. if anyone is interested, get urself to andyspares and purchase the ren 5 gtt group n for 56 quid......its awesome. only thing is, is i havent managed to hook...

awww bugger, would have been a nice idea tho...... has anyone got any details on the import 172s or cups? Ray

right, i was up at gordon lamb today buying my new speedo cable *cringe and i suddenly remembered to have a look at the cup. anyway i was wondering, would i get a sports club discount if i bought a clio cup? cos a nice 5-10% discount on 13k wouldnt half go down a treat. Ray

erm, i know 440 and 480 volvo stuff fits - i just fitted a volvo turbo clutch to my williams engine, i think the boxes are the same too Ray

lol well, dont do what i did and follow certain ppls instructions and rip the f**ker out with all ur might. stick ur hand down the back of the engine where the speedo cable goes into the gearbox, push together the 2 plastic clips and gently pull out. then feed it back into the bulk head -...

hmmm car seems to run fine tho, although the alt is making a weird whiring sound so im wondering if that wire has anything to do with that or its just the belt is too tight Ray

hmmmm im not sure mate - my mates maxim had a piper 4 inch slash cut back box with a powerflow straight thro pipe. it sounded awesome even on a 1.4, with only 100rpm of rasp between 6000prm and 6100rpm. Ray

yeah i think thats the 4th one on the valver engine, but the 5th is a complete mystery Ray

decat is around 65 quid, induction is 98.75, hoses are 150 i seem to remember and i aint even seen the under air scoop. Ray

ok, i have found a extra connector on the williams lump that my 1.8 valver engine didnt have. ill try and explain the area its located in. if u imagine the knock sensor, then look to the left about 6 inches, so ur just about behind the gearbox side of the alt. then directly there where the...

right - i was up at gordon lamb the other day and i caught my first glimpse of a clio cup. now although i like the 172 i never saw it as a car that stood out that much. (no offence to 172 owners) but sat right outside parts dept. was a brand new met blue cup. and i have to say - OMG WOW. now...

whats an ultrasonic tank? Ray

erm, we raped it with a wire brush and some wet n dry, took most of the muck off, then sprayed directly onto it. came up a treat... i just hope i can get it back in the bay without marking the bugger. Ray

im gona sell off the parts and then have the scrappie come and pick up the rear quarters and chassis i reckon, unless someone gives me a good price for the shell lol, erm, i doubt that tho. lofty mate, tensioners, get em from andyspares, upper and lower, cant remember the price but they are...

heh, 2 cars, blue one with a willie lump in it, black one with a 1.8 16v lump, willie lump is goin into the black one, with loads of new bits, cambelt, group n clutch alt belt, tensioners, oil filter, swapping gearbox too, silicone hoses, dizzy, erm, everything in the engine bay, driveshafts...

thing is, is that the power gains from an induction are so minimal anyway that u wouldnt feel the "extra gain" anyway. ppl like irvine and the f1 drivers struggle to feel an extra 15/20bhp when the fueling is altered when they are out on the track and can only tell when the lap times come in...

righty, take a look - *caution* not for the faint hearted 19 lovers ;) <A target=_blank href= "http://www.liquidpolygon.com/carconversion/conversion.aspU color=#800080http://www.liquidpolygon.com/carconversion/conversion.asp/U ray

hmmm, with prima, unless they have it on the shelf when u walk in there....dont buy it. youll be waiting for years, took em 3 times to send me p2 eyebrows back in the day and still they bodged it. Ray

right i fitted the brake hose end of the caliper back onto the base thats attached to the hub but i noticed that its very tight and the wheel doesnt spin as freely as the drivers side does. any ideas? also i noticed that upon turning the hub the suspension creaks sh*tloads from the top when...
