you gays still usin your clutches? amateurs.......

yeah i was told that my passenger seat runners werent under warranty!!? they are certainly expensive to replace, so i didnt. My drivers side seat used to squeak. It stopped squeeking when i used the height adjuster and put it 1 notch up from the bottom. This stopped the squeak.

full throttle gear changes. Practise your starts loads and your shifts and get them mega quick. If you can perfect it, dont use the clutch. Crunch crunch crunch.....

cat171 - i agree with you. Its down to the parents. Im always seein kids roaming the streets, fag in hand etc up to no good. They need something to do. I was into modding bikes before i got into cars, why cant they just do that? They have some good policies in Arab countries where they do...

As it instructs on the filler cap to use 98 and everyone says the Optimax is wonder-juice ive used it at every fill up. For a change i decided to mix in some super unleaded from total and also from Texaco. Dunno whether its just an "ecotek effect" but it seems more lively and pulls harder...

matt - know how you feel i got 4 all round for £200 fitted plus balancing. Felt ultra boaty when new, I think ive gotten used to them, but it still boats around. Grips pretty well tho.... May go for those michelin Exaltos that Cerbera4.5 was talking about.......

thatd take a bit more than bug-n-tar remover to shift.

it should look pretty mean once its on. Hey, cool Louvres is just down the road from me - about a 15 minute normal drive away....are you gonna go and pick it up soon, or are they sending it back to you? if youre about, i wouldnt mind having a drool over your snail-kitted clio if you dont mind...

2 live - how did you do against tim at york?

Good lad! and good choice! itl be interesting to see some ap22 times. What reg did you get? did it come with the change up light? i guess if he didnt hit over 6 you wouldnt have seen it.

or if it looks like youre gonna get caught engage the NOS and get outa there!

oh no, sorry to hear that mate:cry:. Its so gutting when you ding your car, and especially when you do some real damage. I touched someones arse (car) with my old scirocco in a cue waiting to come out of a junction and it wouldve (shouldve) been a £49 repair but the ar$ehead claimed that his...

tell me about it im on my third gearbox and 2nd clutch....... didnt think there was anything wrong with the clutch, but its nice when they tell you its broken and i got a whole new one fitted for £80 including VAT and fitting.

oh no, bad luck mate. If you live in the south and dont mind waiting for new tyres to be fitted/queing up etc try micheldever tyres near winchester. 01962 774437 . I got 4 eagle f1s fitted plus balancing and tracking adjustment for £200....

nice, cant wait to see these! Is the larger TB lots of $$$$$s? id be interested......

380 bhp and only 12.87 seconds? You need to practise your starts mate ;) A good friend of mine had a pulsar with only 265 bhp and top mount running 1 bar. He managed 12.54 at the pod. But i think he upped the boost to 16 psi for the 12.54. He was running 12.7/8 all day.... A modded pulsar...

Jim, you need to thrash it some more mate! mine had a spate of doing that. It would appear like the fuel pipe had come disconnected or something (it hadnt but felt like it) and the acclerator just slowed the car down until it cut out etc. Then the car stank of eggs (CAT). Just turned it back...

yeah its that new invisible paint. Forget Montecarlo Magic at £600 a litre, this is £3000 a ml and completely shrouds your car. The ultimate in stealth

Whenever a discussion comparing different cars of similar specs to the clio in general, one wild card that most rivals use is; "Renault build quality is bad". Now not wanting to cause a row, but after reading the CTR board which is often compared to the clio, the supposedly superiorly reliable...

Paddy did you strip to make that time? Just stripped my bros BRM and those rear seats weigh an absolute tonne.

1700 bhp!!!!! and i thought 172 was pretty nippy!

ive done this twice: once whilst racing a Fiat coupe 20v turbo we were both pretty even (in the wet so wheelspin) upto 80-90 when i went for 4th and selected 2nd! ouch! the revs have never jumped so quickly, right over 8k rpm and i stamp on the clutch "VrrrrrrOOOOOooooOOOOM!!!" , needless to say...

yep ive parked next to a titanium silver and had one let me out of a junction and then follow me once (VR6man) , the titanium seems lighter and more silver. Whereas the iceberg has blue tint to it as someone put it in here. A bit like my old scirocco which was Kosmos silver, but that was bluer.

hi jim, ill have a look and see today. It helps to get a torch in there and check the roundness of the pipes as they seem to get squashed really easily. Or just take them off completely and youve got yourself one loud mutha....try it, its cheaper than a viper!

plz may i see the vid? can some1 pm me the address? cheers. Minel do 120 in 4th nicely....

Hi mate did you ring SMC Woking. They seem to be clued up on how to fix it....Mount under the battery i guess is the offending item. Hope you get it sorted soon. I know how you feel...

Alright mate, cheers. Its well hard trying to steer/change gear/avoid crashing and film at the same time. You can hear me pressing the horn whilst holding the cam hehe. She was running quite nicely that day, not too hot nor cold - got into a few nice races on that outing. VX220 in red that...

jimblive - you have a mk.1 check those cold air feed pipes mate. I bet the mechanics put them on the wrong holes. Mine always do and it feels like boat. I had trouble out-torquing a 406 when i had kinky pipes (im hoping he was in 4th as i was in 5th).....
