    Re: Block the small hole of return of oil in the decanter of oil : Good, Bad, Dangero KumKum - You're getting confused reading replies. Straight forward answer - you can block hole 1 with no issues at all.

    172 Cup Track/Fast Road car.

    Oh almost forgot - I re-wired the electric window switches into some universal switches on the dashboard too I've written up some bits for a guide if anyone needs one :)

    It's a modified OMP cage. Originally just had a rear diagonal in - but now has a full cross and harness bars welded in :)

    172 Cup Track/Fast Road car.

    Well yet again K-Tec have delivered. They said they could get me some Oreca door cards in 2 weeks (in time for FCS) and yesterday they arrived! Massive thanks to Martin and Sean at K-Tec for sorting me out It took me all afternoon to get them fitted, you have to open the holes up for the...

    Good website Designer?

    He seems ok but he's quoted you £1000 which you think "is a bit steep" lol - that's cheap to be honest for an e-commerce site design You'll have to pay extra for product photography on top. Proper product photography is an art in itself

    Opinions on these wheels?

    Speedline Comp 2's!!! One of my favourite wheels ever. Girlfriend had them on her 106 GTi and I kept trying to steal them lol As for the subaru wheels - like you say they look like a fancy version of the standard wheeel

    Good website Designer?

    £750 isn't much of a budget for a full site design AND product photography - £1500-2500 is a bit more realistic You're best bet might be to find an off-the-shelf skin/theme you like and modify it to suit - and use a pre-built e-commerce solution like Magento But even then you'd need a...

    Domain names - recommended company?

    Yes 15 years as a web app developer - combined 20million visits a month to my sites - I know f**k all Sorry but the days of spending £20 for a "shared" hosting and being stuck on a badly maintained out of date server with 400 other people are IMHO over Cloud hosting is so much more flexible...

    Domain names - recommended company?

    123-reg are SUPERB for domain names If you use any of those cheap budget hosting companies for a website you're an idiot anyway to be blunt Just get some cloud hosting - pay for what you use - job done

    Car burnt out drivers door loom, now won't start!

    Holy moly. You're lucky there Must have been the lock on the door seize up - but it'd have to draw some serious power to melt the cabling right back to the fuse box. Ouch! Glad you got it running though!

    Car burnt out drivers door loom, now won't start!

    They need programming as far as I know :( Won't be the fuel cut-off they are impact triggered, and as you say the starter isn't even kicking in The last time I had that random buzzing and doing nothing was when I'd accidentally not attached one of the UCH earths after having my dash out

    Oil breather throttle bodies/rs2 ???

    I chopped the big bit off that sticks up (the big oval piece as Dan says is the old breather for the fuel tank) then stuck a metal plate over the whole thing using silicon sealer. Stops it breathing through the pin hole and looks neat enough :) I can get pics if you need them

    Sell up all my DSLR kit for a Compact System?

    Saying none rival DSLR's is a bit wrong - a lot of them these days actually use DSLR sensors and easily equal the quality. The "old" style bridge cameras like the Canon G10/G12 that use cmos sensors do suffer a bit from quality but they are quite cheap. I had the same issue with my DSLR kit so...

    172 Cup Track/Fast Road car.

    Yeah I wear ear plugs and my helmet - but I don't like wearing them on the road because I might not hear an ambulance or whatever.. I know really it should be on a trailer but I haven't had time/money to go buying trailers and tow cars this year :(

    Wiring diagram? Need to remove this start button.

    Ermmmm if they've done that then it will start the car even without the key in!? You're supposed to take a feed from the 2nd position on the key to the switch then to the starter Oh dear :(

    My new rallye

    Coming from 106's to Clio's - the 106's definitely have a lot more issues with sensors. Every car I had I ended up playing the "swap all the sensors until it runs ok again" game Up until 6 months ago I still had a huge box full of spare coil packs and sensors and ecu's for 106's in the garage lol
  25. Cup_Phil

    My new rallye

    I didn't list every sensor - I could if you would like And TRUST me the ones I listed are common failure points. Not that I'd know what I'm talking about - only had 106's for 8 years and own 106owners.co.uk ;)

    My new rallye

    Oh yeah I think they're a bit busy trying to get the demo cars finished for FCS next week. I'm on their stand as they've done loads of work on my cars over the years Might be worth swapping the coilpack if you know anyone with a 16v local - as they're a common fault. Or like others have said...

    172 cup fast road / Track

    Whiteline rear ARB is a brilliant mod - makes the car handle a lot more like your 205 gti or a 106 gti. Bit of lift off oversteer - lively back end. Reduces understeer a lot too Eibach sportlines are a good set of springs and used by a lot of people. I took my cup round the 'ring with just a...

    Exhaust dilemma

    Yeah I know what you're saying mate - and after being in my mates Civic running a piper exhaust I'd kinda agree But I've run out of time/money lol Donington next sunday, my car won't pass noise tests and I don't see me selling the oreca and ordering a piper and getting it fitted in under a week...

    172 Cup Track/Fast Road car.

    Mini update One of those jobs that for some reason kept slipping my mind was the brake vacuum feed I originally fitted a rubber hose from the solid pneumatic pipe on the bodies to the back of the bay and then onto the original brake vacuum pipe that clips to the bulk head Unfortunately I'd...

    Exhaust dilemma

    Too much work - the oreca middle section is a straight piece of 2.25" pipe - easier to just chop it and weld a silencer in No point making another middle pipe with the bend and trying to make it join the back box Was yours stripped out? Cos honestly this thing is deafening lol
