    19 in 6 months, what car to get?

    agreed to a certain extent but as long as the car is getting good use for other drives rather than to work and back then it wont be a problem. my old 190 brake 172 got used daily to go 1.5 miles to work and 1.5 miles back from work 7 days a week but it also got plenty other use and aloud to warm...

    lol at all the people saying you will kill yourself in the clio 182 SUPER CAR!!! maby if it was a 320bhp turbo rear wheel drive car you would kill yourself, you would need to be a mongo to crash something as predictable as a clio! i had my 172 when i was just about to turn 18, cost me a bomb...

    a potentially stupid question bout oil change

    just take it out for a good blast before you change the oil and get plenty oil temperature in it, will drain better after that.

    Relocating battery - Intake ideas

    thats the best setup you can do above ^ again ideally with a ph1/v6 airbox on it as its better. the bit ive circled red acts as a cold air duct when the grille is all fitted in place taking loads of cold air to the battery area as thats where the standard setup takes its cool air from so...

    172 problem

    they are very lumpy on idle and the exhaust splutters on idle especially when cold but they always do it even when warm. however you shouldnt really feel the car vibrate a great deal at all unless you have uprated engine mounts assuming the engines running ok so my guess would be as above check...

    Whos done an engine conversion in essex? Help needed

    to convert a diesel to a petrol is really not worth it with the ammount of work required, thats before we get to the fact its a better engine your removing!! now, for MUCH less hastle and money you could buy the dci65 van, use a set of dci 80/100 (same on both) injectors, DCi 100 Turbo, DCi...

    have you ever used R888's on the road? what car? ive found them better than any tyre ive tried on the road (ive never used them on track however) but in 195/15" i found the grip phenominal. as for brakes yes agreed improved pedal feel is nice but again as is the extra power of matched inlets...

    Top 10 1*2 Mods

    yep only engine mod id do if i was going for it again, possibly matched inlets again as i got a good gain from them but once you start you cant stop so on a budget if i was to get another as a bit of cheap fun the 182 manifold is the only mod id do. i gained 18bhp and 15lb/ft of torque from ITG...
