    my first car: what to do to it next?

    Pretty much, most people on here don't like anything other than Speedline/OZ aftermarket wheels.. Anything else, other than the CS approved list of mods is s**t, according to those people..

    my first car: what to do to it next?

    Wheels actually look alright. Next, lower it, and I'd say that's a pretty epic first car!

    Cambelt needs to be done every 72k or five years. Whichever comes first. As the car is five years old, it needs doing. It's usually about £4-500 from a Specialist (there are plenty on here, depending where you're based?). Don't go to Renault (too expensive) or a local garage if you can, as...

    Awesome! Despite the car only having 18k miles, make sure the cambelt has been changed. It needs doing about now.

    Want to upgrade my suspension but don't....

    Get some second hand coilovers, mate. £250 should see you a reasonable set of KTec or Vmaxx, and you'll be able to sell your sportlines for £100!

    fan stuck on, where do i find the fan resistor pack

    IIRC, it's held on to the black plastic thing by one 6mm bolt, and the wiring goes down underneath the blower unit. Use your left hand, and face the front of the car and the clip will come off easily..

    Has a garage ever damaged your car? what was the outcome?

    There must have been literally no way they could claim it wasn't them. IMO, if you accept the wheels back in that condition, and hand over any money, you've got no leg to stand on..

    1st & 2nd knocking

    Re: 1st & 2scd knocking If you want the timing proper checked, give JMS an email. Best way to test it, is get someone who knows the cars to come out for a quick drive. If the timing's out, they'll probably notice.
