    diesels are the future

    Handing isn't the fault of the engine to be fair though. The petrol Golfs handle just the same as the diesels. I've tried reding my post and I've yet to see where a 182 type diesel I've said will keep with a 182. Race ciruuits are different than drag strips.

    Toying with the idea of turbo'ing the 182

    No TVR that i can think of does sub 10 second quater miles even the Ferrair Enzo doesn't do that it take more like 11 seconds. Brake on a bike arn't bad at all cornering well all down to guts. Given any race circuits the bike would beat a TVR IMO. Evo did a test some time agao superbike Vs M3...

    New Caliper Set up

    I wouldn't drive a car which had brakes with that much air in them thats one heck of a lot of air in there I'd hate for you to suddenly find you've no brakes on the drive back. Why not fit the brakes at the local garage?

    New Caliper Set up

    Duct tape then over the reservior then will reduce loses bbut you still have to bleed the fluid anyway.

    New Caliper Set up

    Why would you want to do that? Using the old fuild is a waste you need to bleed them anyway so why not bleed the whole circuit won't take much longer and you'll have to buy the fluid anway.

    diesels are the future

    I woulnd't expect the petrols to have a chance if we limit them to same. Ie both to 4k (diesel limited due to the weight of the internals to survive at silly compression ratios and temps which would crack a petrol engine just idling). The diesel is much more eficent at both buring fuel (more...

    Yep they do they make to make it up though. Not sure it its spray cans only though but you can always spray inot a cup and use the paint in the cup. Renault sell the touch up for only £7 or so.

    Knocking Sunroof

    Just learn to live with it mine had all the mods don to it and it never fixed it. Only true fix is a new sunroofless roof or keep swopping cars till you find one which doesn't as ones which don't rattle never seem to rattle.
