Now I know why I didn't find out you had a 172 until today, I don't go in the projects section as Clio's don't really interest me, other than driving one which I still enjoy.

Oh. lol

When did you join the 172 cool kids? You kept that quiet.

Quad fogs, bangin' y0!

£145 on car tax today, it wouldn't hurt as much if I actually knew what they spent the money on, because it sure as sh*t isn't the roads.

I think he was referring to the Pheonix being associated with Cov, loads of stuff named after it in this city.

He isn't, he was born in Ilford and raised in Essex, I saw a documentary on him only the other month.

Those photos were taken in December.

I think troll bidding is in order until every one of his items is over £100k, there's more to this than asking silly prices, I think the parts come with big bags of coke or something.

I like the colour, if you're building a 1000bhp Supra you might as well make it stand out, it's not exactly going to blend in with that kind of power anyway.

That's some shopping list, can't wait for the next update.

It's just for the baby seats, but it weighs sod all so you won't see any benefit, the rear carpets weigh more than the isofix bar. If you really want to shed some weight take the rear seats out, the seat bases weigh nothing but the bench weighs a bloody tonne!

15.00 last time, i'm hoping to get into the 14's next time, oh and tear everyone a new arsehole! :evil:

First time I went it made 151bhp at the wheels, a year later after Fred had changed the belts, pullies, tensioners, alternator, coil pack, HT leads and aircon delete, it made 8bph less, despite feeling exactly the same if not better. Belts had never been changed as far as I know and Fred said...

It's actually in Nuneaton, but they do good work.

My mate works at a garage with a full spray booth, they've done a few peoples bits on here. Message HMS Derv Destroyer, he'll sort you out.

I eliminated all other possibilities, fuses good, relay obviously works because one side was fine, all bulbs worked because I swapped them round, so that just left the physical connection, if i'm going to one day build a Capri to my liking, i'd best start fixing sh*t myself. Although I hate...

Discovered one of the rear lights wasn't working either, turned out to be corroded contacts in the end, scrubbed them with an old toothbrush and everything works now.

All the symbols are on the back of the fuse box cover, the dipped fog symbol is for the fronts and the normal fog symbol is for the back, same as on the dash.

Right, the front fog fuse was broken so i've changed that and now they work, but there's nothing wrong with the rear fuse, but I swapped it anyway, the rears still don't work and there's nothing wrong with the bulbs, is there a separate relay for the fronts and rears, or just one that controls...

Well i'm back to square one of not knowing what the f*ck i'm looking for, i'll just have to hope I don't end up driving through fog ever again, I can't replace a relay if I don't know where it is.

Right then Raz, you're going to have to help me out with this, i'm not fiddling with the thing that controls the entire car, plus I don't know what i'm meant to buy to fix it. It got an mot like this, they never mentioned a thing. lol

None of the fog lights work front or back, the dash light still works but no lights. I planned on checking the fuses but it's been pissing down all day so haven't had the chance, although I doubt both fuses will have gone at the same time, I have read there's a relay for the fogs under the...

Ah right, bloody nice car you've got there, pretty much the polar opposite of what I drive. lol

Very nice, what's that round thing in the middle of the roof?

Re-screwed the splitter back on and removed the carpet out the back, the dog had drooled and puked on it so much it had soaked into the underlay which was stinking, I had no idea the carpet weighed that much, couple of kilos lighter now, should be 0.00000000000000000001 of a second faster to 60.

Got two bags of it out the back and a sh*t load of sharp sand, i'll have to clean it before the weekend otherwise the builder's going to kill me when he comes to finish tidying it up.

That sounds too pikey even for me, i'm going to clean the wet patch tomorrow and slide a spare slab under the car, then clean the spare slab when the oil reaches the edges. I was going to get Fred to fit a new seal kit, but everyone that's changed theirs has told me it didn't stop the leak.

I wish I still had mine, my gearbox selector seal is dripping oil over my freshly laid driveway, which is blatantly why the French fitted them.

Took you long enough to reply to my question, were you sleeping?
