    What tyres for wet / rainy trackdays??

    Hmmm that's an idea. Point me in the right direction? Don't want something that'll be ruined after one or two days though..

    What tyres for wet / rainy trackdays??

    They're not as good as R888s and I was slipping around on them this weekend.

    What tyres for wet / rainy trackdays??

    I run R888s when dry and have only had a chance to use them in very very slightly damp conditions once. But on my second set of wheels I want a tyre which I can rely on in wet/rain. I know R888s work in the wet too but wasn't sure how much I could push them this weekend at the 'Ring and...

    Roll Cage Supply & Fitting

    I'm miles from MF but just got it delivered to my house. They pay your local welder £50 odd quid to weld in the floor plates. Then bolt it in yourself. Very easily done. The only hard bit is the welding.

    Roll Cage Supply & Fitting

    I got mine from Mark too. Great guy to deal with.

    Roll Cage Supply & Fitting

    Are you after a full cage or just a rear section? I've got a Safety Devices rear cage. Nice bit of kit. Cost about £400 basic. All you'd need is to get someone to weld in some floor plates and you can simply bolt it in and out as you please.

    Permanant iMessage? iOS7

    Turn off iMessage if you don't want your phone to try and send them. If it's off your friends will only be able to send text messages. Then all your messages will go through as text message and will always work. I know what you mean, I've had similar issues too. Bit of a pain in the ass.

    Hi, new 172 CUP owner

    Looks good, orange is OK. Didn't look to be foggy in the last photo though.

    Bucket seats question

    I don't know actually to be honest.

    Bucket seats question

    That seat looks far too uncomfortable for my liking. But I'm not sure what it's worth even if it is real carbon fibre. Under the original seats there is a large washer type thing. It pops into the chassis holes and just pops out. This is what you'll need to remove to get the OMP subframes...

    Bucket seats question

    No problem. Here's a link about the extra low Cobra subframes. Might be worth a read. http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?599480-Anyone-with-Cobra-X-Low-subframes

    Bucket seats question

    But yeah you got the idea. Before you edited it out ;) Those OMP ones you linked are exactly what I've got. They do sit wonky but you just need to take out the original bump stops from under the original seats. Where are you located? More than welcome to come and sit in my car for a feel of...

    Bucket seats question

    My base mounted seat. You can see the four fixing points. One on each corner.
  22. Martin.

    Bucket seats question

    Base mounted means the seat is secured to the subframe from the underside. The subframe then bolts through the chassis to the underside of the car, like the original seats. Side mounted means the seat is secured from fixings in the side (which are low down not half way up obviously). Side...

    Bucket seats question

    I'm 6'2" and I have more than enough room. But for you I'd say it's worth going for the lowest subframes you can get just in case. Height depends on the subframe, whether you have sliders or not, whether it's a base mounted or side mounted seat and the type of seat itself. In my car I have...

    Bucket seats question

    Another thing worth knowing is if your seats are base or side mounted? Mine are base mounted and with my OMP subframes they sit more than low enough for me.
  25. Martin.

    Bucket seats question

    You'll need some seat subframes specific to a Clio floor plan. There's a few off the shelf products like OMP etc. Or the proper weld in mounts which give you a bit more control over position. I can't remember the specific name of them though.

    Is redex for petrol engines too?

    Range Rover Driver Runs Over Bikers in NYC

    Maybe he was revving the engine trying to warn them. A few thought f*ck this a backed off, which is what the video shows us. But the rest are still banging at his windows. So he speeds off. Make him right. Bunch of c*nts. END

    Milltek exhaust

    Might get an idea of the sound from my Youtube video. I have a decat fitted too. Centre section is still in place. It's not too loud but there's enough noise to enjoy. Motorway driving isn't too bad. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ODY2gZRzr28

    Range Rover Driver Runs Over Bikers in NYC

    He should have been on the phone to the police straight away and just driven along the motorway slowly, but not slow enough to let them come beside him. Knocking anyone over who tries to stop in front of him or whatever and just waiting for the police to catch up. They were already damaging...
