Pfft that's nothing, I just spent £900 on my engine, talk to me when you're down nearly a grand!

I'll never get rid of the dog kennel, it's like another pet to me, plus i've put a lot of money into it over the years so to get my moneys worth I need to keep it for life.

That's Adam from Wolverhampton, he likes it because it annoys everyone which is fair enough in my book. :approve: (He's not on the site any more) Fair play to everyone showing up in that weather.

I need to drive one of these to see what all the fuss is about.

I'm pretty sure almost everything's slow compared to a ZX7R. lol

Why have you gone off it, mechanical issues, or just plain bored of it?

Would have been nice if they'd actually let us hear what the thing sounds like, instead of drowning it out with sh*t music.

I think it's safe to say i've got a problem.

I do like a good Pikey fix. :approve: I have so many squeaks and rattles I don't even notice them any more, partly because i've got use to them, but mostly because I drown it out with the Stereo.

Check out the high roller with his multiple front ends! :cool:

If the ph3 bumper fits then mesh all the way, those 3 lines a sh*t.

Nothing wrong with your car Spinksy, especially since you ditched the green bits. How big is the IC, will it stick out a bit? (What engine is it again? I've forgotten) :o

I also think you should ditch the 3 lower grill lines for mesh.

The only thing i'd change on that Ph3 bumper is the two vertical lines that separates the 3 bump strips, wouldn't be too hard to smooth those two bits.

You mean these?

Well you know as well as I do Raz, that bumper's going to explode when you release the tension on that thing, you also know how I feel about RS bumpers on non RS Clios. :nono: So with that in mind i've put together a small selection of Ph2 bumpers for your consideration. 2009 Campus 2011...

I got my fuel rail guard off with a normal socket set and a small extension bar thing, it's just that you have to put the socket in first then attach the handle thingy bit, as there's not much space in between the guard and the front of the car.

I know a bloke like that, he just tinkers with his classic bikes and builds Tritons. (Triumph engine with a Norton frame) However I know another bloke that's built a Cobra rep with a Rover V8 in it, i'll be checking that out this Saturday, i'll try and get some pics but my DSLR's broken.

Holy sh*t!!! Your old man's got skills. :cool:

Then the oil vapour will drip on the manifold instead of being burnt off in the engine. I use one of these instead as i'm using a silicone elbow with a V6 box.

I'm subscribing to this magazine, it has everything in it I like.

The acoustic valve is behind the passenger wheel arch. Taken from another thread. * Remove (entirely) the air box, disconnecting both air feeds (one to the right and one directly under). Air box is held in place by two screws and jublie clips * Jack the car up under front left, ensure you...

The things you find when you're bored on the internet.

There's 100s of those body kits about, i've seen three Clios like that where I live.

Butter knife or flathead screwdriver with some tape over the end, then start at the front of the bullets and gently twist/prise them off, they're only clipped in so should just pop on and off.

You can't get PE2s anymore, it's been a while since i've used them. I agree with keeping 1*2s in top condition, I just spent £900 on belts, dephaser, water pump, alternator, injectors, coil pack and sump gasket, looks like i'll be running rubber bands on mine for a while. lol

I used PE2s for years usually around £95 a corner, i've never found the grip lacking on any of the cheaper tyres i've used, however the PE2s lasted a hell of a lot longer than any tyre i've ever used since. Never tried PS3s though, i'll have to give them a go when I win the lottery. ;)

So you wouldn't spend less that £120 a corner? I used to be like that, only buying the most expensive tyres I could find, then from talking to people on here I realised I could get good tyres for far less. Don't get me wrong if you're happy spending that then that's fine mate, it's your car...

I've never looked for 205s, I only buy 195/45/16s same as the OP, which means for £45-£60, he'll get a good tyre for his car. If I had 205s i'd be looking to spend £60 and above.

No it doesn't.
