    Sods Law strikes - not a happy bunny

    I think it's definately some kind of motor vehicle because of the paint left on my car and it was on the side facing into the road. I'll be having a look around on my street when I finish work in the morning to see if anyones car's got scuffs but I seriously doubt I'll find the culprit :dapprove:

    Problem with xenons-electrical wizards required

    Don't really want to do that as it's supposed to be a 10amp fuse and it could wreck the lamp itself, and it's fcuking expensive to replace :dapprove:

    Mates Sierra XR4x4 2.9 V6 twin turbo

    I remember my dads old XR4x4, back in 92-93, fuel pressure regulator went mental & used £20 of petrol in about 7 miles :eek: we had to push it to the petrol station good times :cool: I also helped him fit a K&N cone filter and when a spanner went missing it was the fault of the 10 year old boy...

    K-TEC RACING

    don't waste your money trying to make the 1.8 go faster, you're never going to get an extra 40bhp out of cams & a remap, you wont be far off 170bhp with the same done to a 2 litre lump I'm selling a 2.0l F7R, drop me a PM if you're interested ;)

    Extreme computer novice help needed

    spent the best part of 2 days with him lol he's going on one of those 1 day courses at the library soon, I knew it was going to be difficult when I said "double click that" to which he replied "what's double click?" it also feels like I'm being patronising when trying to explain stuff as...

    MSN's Top 50: Disappointing Cars. No.39 Clio V6

    I can vouch for that, take 1 drunk V6 owner, put him into the passenger seat & drive him to a party :rolleyes: talk about ego trip lol! :rolleyes: Although I must say it's very easy to put the owner back in his place with a 2nd gear corner and a "watch this" moment :rasp:

    MK1 Clio Suspension Question

    I think all the subframes on mk1's are the same (apart from the williams) so the wishbones & arb will fit You'd also need the driveshafts from the 19 or williams, as for the rack you just wind the track rod ends out a bit more. The suspension struts will have to be modified or replaced with...
