    New CCTV Camera

    Ive just ordered a Foscam Ip dome camera. Was about 60 quid, has POE and a micro SD slot, both of which are important for me. Pick it up today and will let you know how it is!

    Amazon fire TV sticks

    Im trying to install Jarvis on a fresh stick, im at the download page in ES Explorer, but when I click on the 'ARM' link, nothing happens? Exe files etc. All seem to work but obviously arent the right ones.

    What have you ordered? *Detailing*

    AF Tripple and DJ Purple Haze panel pot for a change!

    Have you taken your skirts off, to check for rust?

    I think its a case of screws either side and along the bottom, and drilling a few rivets out.

    Brake Dust Removal

    Be careful with strong wheel cleaners and powdercoat, I stupidly ruined 2 sets of powdercoated wheels, one with ag wheel cleaner, the other with clean wheels. It dulled the finish and caused spiderline cracks all over the surface.

    Driveshaft differences

    Am I right in thinking that we are only limited to second hand shafts now as Reno have stopped making/refurbing? And the 3rd party ones dont fit perfectly?

    If your car was off the road, what would you do to it?

    Dont do it. Ive read tonnes of 'epic' rebuild threads where they never get finished or life gets in the way etc. I said to myself I would fix/upgrade if broken, otherwise, just drive it. That was over 6 months ago and the cars been on stands ever since, subframe/steering rack/engine...

    Alfa Romeo Giulietta

    Hi @percy555 not yet, I have a few warranty bits to sort first. Uconnect headunit occasionally crashes, but I cant pinpoint why - its completely at random. Rear drivers door doesnt 'catch' unless you slam it shut Small rattle/knock/clunk on gear change at low speed Hoping the above are all...

    172 exhausts

    Ktec stealth with the centre silencer (important!), is common. Pure motorsport do a stealth one in various db ratings as well. A lot of 172 exhausts have tailpipes under the bumper which may not be your thing

    Yet another Clio. 55 RB 182.

    Looks fantastic! What are you using on top of amigo glaze? Ive heard a lot of sealants have solvents which strip some of the fillers!

    EPAS on 172 Cup

    Any ideas how they can be split? Assuming it can be done!

    EPAS on 172 Cup

    Hi all, Does anyone have any pics of the mounts of the DCI rack? I picked up a refurbed one but looking at it 'square' the mounts dont seem to be flat, one is at a different angle to the other if that makes sense. I have attached a pic to show what I mean. If the rack is mis-aligned, any tips...

    Epas conversion, dci rack but which inner control arms?

    Ive got dci ones on mine and they were same length as the 172 ones i have spare, longer iirc! Track rod ends are 172.

    Topaz Blue M3

    Red leather looks great! Just FYI, if you clay/decontaminate, that will strip all the protection (if any!) on the car, so depending on how long you leave it you should do it again next time, and just whack some aqua wax on after shampooing if you havent got time to do the full works.

    Detailing Chat & Questions Thread

    How can I tell if an LSP has solvents? I want to use Prima Amigo as a glaze, but EGP on top - will this strip the glaze? Also, whats bests to go under a glaze if applied by hand? Im assuming SRP is pointless, I was thinking something like a cleanser or ultimate compound?

    Alfa Romeo Giulietta

    I just went for it to be honest, 3 year warranty inc. breakdown, and an allowance covering the monthly cost + a decent amount of running costs! Nothing else like them in the work car park (Jettas, A3s, Passats...). Ordered a 'Wizard' backbox - 100mm slash cut inward rolled straight through...

    172 Tarmac Rally Car

    Wow, close call! Ive got a real soft spot for 206s, think they are underrated compared to the 205/106/306, not sure if thats warranted though! Good luck with the rebuild.

    Alfa Romeo Giulietta

    Thanks for the comments! Well this was ~£23k list, and I got it for ~£16k, with a £2.5k deposit contribution, so was hands down the cheapest out of the crop of cars I was looking into! It is full finance to own the car at the end, as the Missus wants it afterwards. Planning to fit an...

    Exhaust bumper trim

    Ebay, Paul Temperton on Facebook, or Pure Motorsport do a carbon one that works out slightly cheaper.

    Alfa Romeo Giulietta

    Cheers all :) The facelift (2014 on i believe) is big step up in interior quality and kit, id say it is as good as the a3 i had before it. Reliability wise, its fairly late in the models life, plus a facelift, so reliability wise they are as good as anything else. I went for petrol so no dpf...

    Alfa Romeo Giulietta

    Hi all, Thought I would post some pics of my recently aquired G! Using this everyday and have a 172 project. Opted out of the CC scheme at work and took the allowance, and am now saving circa £100 a month, which is nice. It is a 1.4tb in cobalto blue metallic with rear parking sensors, rear...

    JAMason's Clio 172

    Not sure if you said but where did you get that stripe? Looks great!

    Oil breather thingy maybe ???

    @RichieJA on a Ph2 it connects in a different place, closer to the coilpack iirc. I would say it needs to be connected or a filter added and blocked off at the other end purely because its allowing unfiltered and unmetered air into the engine, which is never a good thing.

    New Car - First Detail - Tips?

    Well, was a little annoyed with the dealer! They didnt clean it as I asked, but they pressure washed it and dried it with a cloth! Argh! Ended up citrus power, iron x, bug and tar, clay mit, srp x2, sealed with x2 egp left to cure for an hour each time, rain x on glass, clean wheels and ag...
