  1. Tighten My Nuts

    Home made 'Maxogen' fitted today...

    Can't say I've noticed any difference low down, still kicks up at 4k, then again much harder at 5k. Does seem to pull harder through from 5k though, and continues right through 7k too. Difficult to tell, as it always had enough to spin the wheels in 2nd before this change so can't feel...

    172 Cup vs 182 Trophy

    A gnat's c**t hair seperates them in reality...but the cheap one just edges it. If ultimate performance is all that you're after get the Cup as it'll outperform the Trophy and cost a significant wedge less. If it being a comfortable daily driver with suspension you won't be able to afford to...

    Exige chasing and Cup hunting :)

    Smooth lad.

    Out of the box home cinema system

    I bought a Sony DDW-890 - £215 delivered from eBay but I can't see anymore on there now. 1,000w 7.1 DD Got my Wii, 360, Sky HD all hooked up to it...very easy setup, and very good quality sounds. If you can find one it sounds ideal. They've got it listed at pixmania...but as...

    Really bad tyres - your experiences please

    For the record, accidents aren't generally caused by tyres, but by drivers exceeding the grip available to them. If you have sh*t tyres, drive slower. A539s were always fun in the wet for me.

    My New Track Wheels...

    I think that might have been me. I ran a set (orange) for a while...had brake fade problems with Pagid Blues so swapped for some TSWs and I've been fine since. That's not to say it wasn't a change in my driving though...but with almost as much spoke as space I always thought they might...

    EBC Green Stuff pads

    I'm ROFLOL at people who blame pads being s**t for their brake pedal going to the floor. That's your lines and/or fluid failing, not your pads fading.

    2.0l badges or 1.6 16v

    I think you should do the 2.0 badges tbh. If it looks alright go for it...why would you care what other people think...if you're happy yourself do it. That won't stop the abuse though!

    ITG panel filter...isit worth it??

    I can't say my ITG panel filter made a difference to the performance. Definitely did to my wallet though. ITG foam panel filter = £47 x1 = 102k miles = £47. Renault paper filter = £15 x17 = 102k miles = £255. So yes, in the long run they're worth it.

    Your sessions will fit in around your commitments...you just work it out with your observer. You're halfway there already with your attitude so get yourself booked up!

    I like the average post bit...almost self-ownage there for the new boy.

    Data transfer from old to new desktop...what options?

    It'll have to be that as I've not got an ethernet network card in the old machine. New machine running Vista, old machine creaking along with XP home, with me being a typical 'home user', is setting up the link across wireless going to have me tearing hair out?

    Data transfer from old to new desktop...what options?

    Like the wireless then? Or would it be better for me to hardwire them? Got plenty of cable at work so could be do-able.

    Data transfer from old to new desktop...what options?

    My old PC is creaking, and I can't get the DVD drive to write any data discs, so options are? USB key Standalone HDD Or could I have them both connected through my wireless router then just fire the files straight from one HDD to the other? If not anyone have any recommendations for the...

    How fast can you run with a 25kg back pack on your back? Same applies to cars.

    Locking doors....

    Smash the window. Let's face it, if you need someone to open the door from the outside following a crash you're going to be so f***ed up that it won't matter even slightly if they put the window through and open the door using the inside door handle.

    Woman trying to do me out of money, has she messed up big time?

    I'd use that one. Will she not see you about it face to face?

    They sound suitable for me?

    172 inlet manifold PTFE gasket

    Ahhhh, but my plenum airspace is blocked by a CAF running across the front alongside the fuel rail...would that give me higher plenum temps as I'd not get full cooling airflow around it?

    Woman trying to do me out of money, has she messed up big time?

    I'm looking forward to hearing what happens next with this. What are you going to say when she gives you the bill?

    So when we getting the R27.R then Renault?

    If they went only halfway from the R27 starting point, as they have with the R26R thing, then I could possibly be tempted into one of these.

    172 inlet manifold PTFE gasket

    Thanks for the answer. In a trackday application then, does the engine bay reach that ultimate temperature throughout if going at pace for say 20 mins? I'm just trying to think if for me as maybe I'd get the benefit all the time my tyres and brakes are cold (start of session), then when...

    New. From an Espace V6 circa 1995 IIRC.

    I fitted this beautiful thing tonight...

    You're the first to give me an indication of ram air effect and speeds :approve: I've not known hence the question marks. This whole exercise is purely speculation on my part. I saw the space, thought this would work so I've bolted it on...I'll find out if it performs :D, or if I'm just...

    are these coilovers on ebay any good

    All the info says they're adjustable and offer different spring rates Fred...just not to an acceptable range for road use I guess?
  28. Tighten My Nuts

    I fitted this beautiful thing tonight...

    It travels further yes, but straighter and with more force/flow compared to how these two restrictive feeds bend and turn surely?
  29. Tighten My Nuts

    I fitted this beautiful thing tonight...

    What do you mean, level of filtering? The foam filter itself? You don't think it's good enough to do its job? I know there's lots of doubt surrounding this...we'll see on the RR LOL :evil:
