    Quick question regarding EPS

    That's a massive help cheers, the steering on the PH1 is pretty heavy, however I've just learned the aux belt is about to give up as a tentioner is on belt so might not need to convert after all :)

    HELP !

    Takes the PH1 out today and noticed a strong rubber smell, I've taken it back home and noticed the spring (tentioner?) on the aux belt is pressing against the belt !? Where is this tentioner meant to be sitting ?

    Removing air con heat exhanger/rad from blower unit

    I think I saw the mention of them when I skimmed the guide, they are above the pedals, really not hard to take out (Especially when you have snapped the unit it with pliers piece by piece ;) ) Edit: 4th last page in PMS guide :approve:

    Re: Harphamominom's Ph1 Project Looking cracking fella, it's like reading what I did to mine only quicker then I did xD I agree about the rear lights, they just need a good polish after 10+ years of beatting - one of the largest improvements i've did on mine along with a new throttle cable...

    Guy gets caught vandalising a car.

    Anybody would be angry and want to beat the sh1t out of him, the difference is the ones who would actually do it - personally id be waiting for the police to arrive, what if he pulls a knife (Or as this is America, a gun) Your fucked and over what, some damage to your car ? Yes i'd be pissed...

    taxing a car after SORN?

    Yep, read the fine print on the site when I did mine, you can display your old tax disk for up to 5 days as long as the new tax disk has been purchased before the current has expired.

    This fell off my car!!

    I thought this at first, but if I was using those points to pull the engine out i'd be sure as hell they where bolted to high heaven - probably just rattled off with it being bolted directly to the engine.

    Laptop getting very hot

    It's likely a build up of installed applications running in the background, your google tools bars and what not. Either that or an over zealous antivirus. Start > Run > MSCONFIG > Startup Untick everything (Within Reason - Google Updater for example) Apply > OK > Restart Machine
