    iPad Mini

    Don't think there's enough of a size difference to the normal iPad if what they're bringing out is really going to be an 8 inch. They'll still sell whatever they tell people to buy though.

    MX5 Number 2.

    I actually forgot to ask what the Plug and play kit price was, but the ECU on it's own is £499 retail, so I think the kit is about £650 ish. I'll check. It's fully sequential fueling and not batch fire too, so it's a lovely bit of modernisation

    MX5 Number 2.

    Well I'm a spax dealer so it's a bit different. I might just go for the RSX coilovers (£650), they'd probably be easier to sell on later. I've been eyeing up the Jenvey catalog too, And Canems (i'm also a dealer) do a plug and play ECU kit.

    MX5 Number 2.

    Think I'm going to stick a Spax PSX kit on mine, and have a browse through the Powerflex catalog. Also got a list of Ultra-racing products on it's way

    did you use high quality bearings, and torque the hub nuts correctly?

    Supercharged Clio's , What is required etc and rough costs ?

    Very ballpark, the stock engine is safe at 250 bhp on a centrifugal (Rotrex) charger. You should see 210lb/ft roughly at that point. You can squeeze more, but i'm going on the safe side.

    AEM Wideband Controller

    nope, they're just more flexible. They're probably actually less accurate as they run on a 5v range rather than the 1v range a narrowband sensor runs. Narrowband can't see much of a wide range of AFR. so it's not suitable for full throttle or high load mapping and that is where wideband comes...

    AEM Wideband Controller

    narrowband is actually VERY useful for mapping the closed loop areas of the map. With feedback displayed you can see what it really going on, and fine tune the map to be making very minimal adjustments. You're actually being more accurate to what will be really happening in real life once it's...

    Crunching into 2nd Gear

    put 80w90 in my mk1 to stop it. Worked for about a month then came back. I just drove around it in the end and it got no worse over 2 years or fairly hard use (I was waiting for it to go bang and replace it, but it never went

    F7* Big End Bearings

    only reason it will do that is a failing oil pump, or incorrectly torqued rod bolts. I would go with the oil pump option myself. If there's enough journal contact to spin a bearing, a tab isn't going to make the slightest bit of difference. Also once a rod has had a bearing spin, it's usually...

    Braided lines -> are copper washers needed ?

    They are also cheap fittings that will rust.

    Cornering too hard? Tyre wall flex?

    Easily sorted with some alignment tweaks. Perfect excuse for a bit more camber, and check your toe. Tyre pressures also may need tweaking to suit different tyres

    Average. No better. Had a lot of people come through work and mention they're disappointed as they didn't really change anything over standard.

    Vodafone increasing line rental

    works with orange every time for me. They've knocked off £5 a month the last 2 times i renewed (so my current contract is £10 less than the advertised price for the package) becuase i asked for a loyalty discount. They also basically doubled all my allowances at the same time. Regarding the...

    Brake pads

    warping disks is a myth, it doesn't happen. What people think it warping, is actually deposits of pad causing unevenness in the disk surface. Can be caused by sitting with your foot on the brake when stationary and they're hot, or sticky calipers.

    iPhone 5.

    just a snippet of info for you, saw a mate on sunday that's had his exchanged already under warranty because it chipped like this in his pocket. It's not just a demo model issue

    Brake pads

    It does depend what you like from a pad as braking, like tyres and suspension is entirely personal taste, but I'm a big fan of the Mintex M1155. Technically a sprinting pad as it doesn't take a lot to get up to temperature, unlike a full race/track pad, but they have lovely feel to go with the...

    Rebuild- How to get genuine 182/172bhp figures

    182 was only called a 182 as the 206 gti at the time was a 180. It was one-up-manship. It's not hard however to build a good strong near standard engine to make good power. Just takes careful measurement, adjustment, and preparation. I can't think of any reason to bother with 197 cams unless...
