Nothing doing at WHSmith in Southend - where they must sell 10 times more car mags than anywhere else in the country! As you say Dazz, sounds like the same old problems...it shouldnt really be some kind of mission just to pick up a magazine when its supposed to have come out. Ill try again tomorrow.

Yeah but where are they??? I just been down to WH Smiths and theres nothing there! This is getting like deja vu...

Looks like you and me are the old school Aaron! Date Of Purchase: 1999 Price: £6500 (Trade) Year Of Car: 1993 Model: Clio 16v Nick

Another good days work then mate! By my reckoning thats 0-100 in mid-high 16s - which is bloody quick for a Clio whatever way you look at it. Theres not a lot of hot hatches out there could live with that kind of pace!

If only I had a vid camera Id do a 0-100 run for you...good work Craggy my friend, how on earth you managed to get it videod as well I dont know! It definitely looks like you start going at just past 1 second on the video timer and finish at around 8. so sub 7 seconds at least

Yeah Craggys box takes a beating I can vouch for that. Still, best to get it done Lou. Anyway, a Williams box is definitely £500 or £550 + vat (cant remember which) - I know cos I just put one in. It IS an engine out job. Anyone who reckons they can do a decent job with the engine still in the...

What is it you find hard about a 35mm drop? It was the best thing I ever did to my valver in the early days of my mods.

Yeah yours takes on and canes all comers around Donny! But I still dont think its standard...no Willy is that quick as standard, yours is like a rocket ship!

hehe Ben you have a lot to learn young apprentice...the modding master knows that with only one foglight out you will be 100x more hardcore than having it symmetrical. You dont see Mat B on the 1/4 mile with *both* headlights out do you? Seriously though, I know what you mean, I had this exact...

Hey whats this about club rum? Its the first Ive heard of it!;)

mines a bit weird, although however deep you dig everything is totally above board and legit, you sometimes get the feeling that all is not what it seems. Maybe it was the fact that it had no crash damage yet I found broken glass under the rear seat and a new quarter light without the security...

Did they have the Fiesta RS concept car? Ive only seen the pics in Autocar and it looks truly mental.

hehe didnt Mel do that to her Clio at Southend last time? Tony used his special skills to pop the lock.You still locked out?

Absolutely correct Chavy I couldnt have summed it up better myself mate (oops we better try not to be pals any more in case anyone gets the hump about it...) So anyway whats everyone think of that new Fiesta RS concept car thats on the cover of Autocar this week? IMHO that is one wacko mental...

Cool its nice to hear some appreciation from the silent majority! :D Its easy for the admin team to feel like packing it all in when all you hear is complaints the whole time. We dont get paid and we didnt get into this because we like people to feel grateful for what we do - just because we...

How did the meet go anyway Ben? Good turnout?

Wicked. But 18s are the starting point,not 17s!

Yeah on a 1.4 you got the bonus of a lot more room to play with. Because my hose is just thin walled super flexible stuff, I cant really put a reliable solid connection in the side of it for the two pipes that usually go in there. Mine has one connection for the idle speed valve and one for the...

Heres some prices for you then - the closest off the shelf custom pipe that Samco do is 102mm, the next one down is 89mm. 102 is basically 4 inch. 1m straight £73.40 45 degree elbow £34.72 90 elbow £31.22 Straight reducer 102mm>76mm £19.78 135 degree bend and 90 degree reducing...

Well it depends what you want it for and how long it needs to be. Any kind of 100mm hose in silicone is gonna be a 5-ply job that will cost an absolute fortune and you wont get very sharp bends either. Is your TB the same as mine? I had that same idea of ovalising the 100mm pipe I got, and...
