What is the online game experience like? I'm buying a PS3 + GT5 tomorrow afternoon! Would appreciate some feedback on how the online side of things is!
Anyone else looking forward to the release of GT5 prologue at the end of this month?? 16 player online multiplayer, full 1080p 60fps HD ... I'm buying a PS3 just to play this - looks AWESOME!
Question: Should I get a 40gb or a 60gb ps3, and why are people paying a fortune for the 60gb ones...
Wow Ashy, just found this thread, amazing work mate!! Please invite me to come and see the finished product once it's done, looks awesome! Get some pics up of the actual car, are you running it on 15's? Keep it street sleeper and standard mate, if you ever consider selling it contact me first lol :)
I've owned a 5 turbo for the last 10 years, as well as a 172 cup and I think I can answer this question for everyone.
A standard 5 is not fast, a 172/182 will leave it for dead...
The thing with the 5's is that you can wind the boost up quite easily and for not much money they will put out a...
How much for an engine and manifolds etc? Im thinking to put one in a renault 5 turbo as they bold straight onto the renault 5 gearbox apparently...
Just need a running block and ecu and a bit of bodging to make it fit tight..
yeah ralph, the crap thing is the classifieds on there are now restricted to members only... another reason why paying them £15 a year is a ripoff, you advertise something and don't even get full market exposure :|
I used to be a member Clart, I've had 5 turbo's since I was 19 (i'm 27 now)... and I think the RTOC is a rip off... £15 a year to chat on a forum... Why should the site owners profit so hard from running a forum? Fair enough they have other stuff to offer but I live up north and don't go to any...
although they do exist..! I picked up a minter 100% standard 1 lady owner from new, every receipt from new and FSH for £1500 on ebay 2yrs ago ;).. it sits in my garage waiting for the summer months.
I remember ages ago on the RTOC website seeing an article about 5 turbos having a problem where the starter motor just makes a clicking noise and doesnt turn over sometimes, but it was fixed by changing some relay or something, wasn't the actual motor..
can anyone help me out?... I dont wanna...
£55 gets 220 miles :( but he's left a full tank... the only hassle is I have to drive 30 miles every 3 days to his house to feed his cat lol... seems a good deal to me.
I had a 172 cup from new until my son arrived 8 months ago then I had to switch to a family scenic ...
Anyway, just checked out the photos etc of the new 197 and I can't believe Renault have taken what I considered "the best" hot hatch available and basically fucked it all up...
Here's...

Just sent the little t**t an email.. (check who it's from too - wonder if he gets it!)...
Hi,
I'll take the car, how can I send you the money? Please...
Righty,
I've got a minter 5 turbo which I keep garaged in the winter and drive in the summer. I'm the 2nd owner from new, the previous keeper was a lady in her 50's who owned it from new since 1989. She sold it as she had a shoulder problem and the doctors told her she needed a car with power...
sorry, but the more I see the "new" clio.. the more it just reminds me of a shitty pug 206 with a renault badge on it...
long live the 172 cup (the best "clio" ever made imo!).. renault have cocked up on this occasion I think.
its bullshit, i checked the site about 3-4 months ago and it said my exchange would be active in march 2006 for 24mbit... I checked 2 weeks ago and now it just says that there are plans with no specific date...
it's one of those sites which wants to start on the hype, pre register users.. but...
yeh its the 1.4... at the end of the day, yeh its slow.. but it gets from A to B, thats all I wanted.. something bigger, safe, with basic comforts.
When we go back to being a 2-car family i'll get another hot hatch or so, i've still got my 5 turbo in the garage for the summer months ;)
