    Welcome to the forum Keiran. That's a lovely colour!

    Race battery's

    3M will be enough to do both the positive feed, and an earth lead (if you're going behind the passenger seat - I got 5M to relocate mine to the boot). Just depends on how you want to route it. I used a longacre thru adapter for the bulkhead...

    Carbon canister

    No idea I'm afraid. I got that particular vent though, and it slides into the pipe fine. I put a cable tie round it just to keep it secure. Also, I have since been advised to change the resistor, for a heatsink type. Picked mine up from RS components. It's an Arcol HS10 Series Aluminium Housed...

    Banbury & Bloxham spots

    White 200 followed me last week up by Aldi. Blue 182 parked on Woodgreen Ave, and a Black 182 heading into Bloxham this morning.

    No dude! We've had it running, and I'm just waiting on when Alex is free to finish the last bits on the loom, get it painted, and finish the last few bits.

    Project: Nick Frost 172

    Got a few more jobs done this afternoon. Refitted the spoiler and boot latch, and made a start on grinding off the unwanted brackets before the grinder packed up. Not bad for 10 years I suppose. Will grab another one this week and crack on grinding them down now they've been cut off...

    Waiting on some bits to turn up. Bolts, etc. Got some caps to blank off 2 of the heater ports. 51mm if anyone needs to know. Also trimmed up the fog light surrounds to fit the brake ducts. Secured with the good old cable ties. List has changed slightly. Completed a few jobs but also...

    Oh doesn't have to be this week buddy. We tend to just do Tuesday and Friday nights now, so if you're on one of those at some point, I'll give you a shout!

    @Gorms Any chance of helping us nubcakes thru the new raid? We're still yet to attempt it. Be me and the other 3 guys.

    ClioSport Festival 2017 - Book Tickets Now!

    Yes, but you have to wear a beret, don a dodgy moustache, and carry round a baguette for the weekend IIRC

    The XBox One Thread

    We moved from a One, to a One S back in November (Black Friday deal). Not a huge difference to be honest. No massive power brick, and a smaller unit as you said. Reverted back to a traditional "push" type power button on the front on the console. We did get a 4K telly at the same time. If you...

    Greetings from South Africa

    Howzit! There's a few folks from Joburg and CT on the boards.

    Yeah, I realised that after speaking to @dann2707 about his, but I kinda like how snuggly it fitted. Plus the bolts were £1.50 for a pack of 25.

    It's all thanks to @AlexW ! The lad knows his way around them for sure.

    Sister and the kids went home a couple of days ago so inbetween other jobs I found some time for the car. First of all, started on the horrendous job of removing the roof tar. What a b*****d... Then that was followed by the frightening job of putting the aerocatches in the bonnet...

    Front Anti Roll Bar Fitting Tips

    It's not impossible but I seem to recall some mild abusive language.

    Front Anti Roll Bar Fitting Tips

    Like Budgie said, no need to replace them. It was a b*****d of a job whilst on the car too.

    Slightly longer bolts and swearing.

    Which cage now?

    Sounds like yours is the international multi-point cage. The clubman 6 point MSA cage like I have doesn't connect to the turret and doesn't require the extra work for the loom.

    Today I popped to Halfords to get some heater hose. Last bit I needed to finish off the coolant hoses. Need to get some edging to go round the hole the hoses pass thru, to stop them rubbing and splitting. (Yes, there's a couple of jubilee clips to go on too) Also cracked on with the doorcards...

    Few more little bits done in the little free time I've had over the weekend so far. Started to remove the tar patches from the scuttle panel. After mounting the switches in the centre of the dash, I decided to locate my Hazard switch on the right-hand side. The EPAS adjuster will also be...

    Adam's 172 Turbo Build

    As said, goes to the acoustic valve. Pull it all out and you can get a nice silicone end cap to put on it off eBay for a quid or 2.

    Steath weight reduction

    I and no doubt others have weighed various bits, so if you search the forums there'll be some figures thrown up. Think the sound deadening tar crap weighed about 14kg, and that was just what's on the floor. There's still the panels on roof and in the scuttle panel. I've had my loom modified...
