    Clean Vee!

    Had the wheels refurbished last week and this morning the car was looking trashed (yes, it gets driven - hard!) so set about it. Usual 2BM, Dodo Supernatural, Bilberry, i4d big fluffy yellow drying thing - nothing special, but I thought it was looking ace!

    acer internet 65mbs should be 130mbs, help!

    Theory is a wonderful thing. Although I sat the other night going spare at my Virgin box before realising the reason I was only getting 10Mb/sec was because I was using a laptop with an 802.11b card!

    Flol at hiding the embarrassment. New 911 Turbo has been out for a little bit now. The 998 is the following year...

    Evo Car of the year 2009

    At 21 I was rolling in a nearly new 182 and a brand new Megane GT. You're not special. Let me know if you roll in a Gallardo at 22. x

    Yea, we are a bit Louise. What was on topic? How fugly the 200 is?

    Evo Car of the year 2009

    I'm yet to see in car footage of you doing anything remotely quick. By all accounts (even your own!) you're average on track so aren't really in a position to comment on other people's abilities. At least when I did a trackday in my 182, Bibendum didn't come home and a couple of M3 owners...

    Use Powershell. If you're on 2007.

    Wheres the best place to fit the bluetooth kit??

    Dash is easy to remove - don't even need a guide: Take the silver (or painted) strips off the front of the dash, remove all Torx hidden away. Look just inside the doors, on the side of the dash is a plastic Torx-headed locating pin, take those out (one each side). Pull the top of the steering...

    Mk2 Clio V6 or Mk3 Clio 200

    Maybe rather than 'being around' them, you should try driving them. My Vee is a million times more fun than my old supercharged Exige, and in terms of looks - well to sum it up EVERYONE looks. The Exige drew looks from car enthusiasts, the Vee draws looks from everybody under the sun. And as...

    Excellent stuff! Cheers bud!

    Zircotec Coating - What Colour?

    Yeah, although I can imagine a lot of the heat in the IM is due to the metal contact between it and the block. PTFE gaskets anyone?! That's probably a year or so down the line yet, mind. Will probably do matching and that at some point eventually...

    Zircotec Coating - What Colour?

    Yeah, not sure whether the effects are one-way but it's certainly picked up a bit of filth over it's life so would make it pretty again...

    NG05 WPE - Birmingham

    Yep, Black 182.

    Zircotec Coating - What Colour?

    Right on. Single plenum too.

    Zircotec Coating - What Colour?

    Sorry, completely forgot about doing those! Basically it's a ceramic coating that reduces the heat transfer. I'm not sure getting the inlet done will do anything (although it'll be a shade prettier as mine's filthy) but the exhaust can lose anything up to 33% (according to the spiel) of the...

    Black V6 - Birmingham

    Had. Got another one going on. R5 BAU was the first one, getting V6 UFD on it when Shaun sends me the paperwork :)

    Zircotec Coating - What Colour?

    The inlet will probably be done in due course - the exhaust is the big one at the moment as I've having one made (twin box it would seem!)

    Zircotec Coating - What Colour?

    Car's black - and I was tempted by white but you'd see it through the rear vents so wasn't sure if it'd look a shade shoite. Plus it'll get s**t up when Fred works on it!

    Black V6 - Birmingham

    Probably. Was in it Tuesday and in it again today.

    Zircotec Coating - What Colour?

    For everything - starting with the backbox (and maybe collector) next week, to the rest of the system at the start of next year. This on on the Vee BTW. http://www.zircotec.com/page/-_performance_colours/47 My thoughts are the metallic black?

    297bhp Mk2 vee

    WTF? For that sort of work I'd want evidence not just a picture of a chavved up Vee.

    When you've finished overtaking someone, move the f*ck over afterwards. Clownshoes like you are the reason my journey to work is s**t!

    Yeah, I can do that.

    i5 or i7?

    If your current board can take it, stick a Q6600/Q6700 in there. Mine still benches fine and runs Crysis et al. The GPU is the biggest bottleneck in any modern system still... £120 and good as new.
