I stand corrected! Impressive figure for a car still on the standard inlet!

I'm sure that was on bodies? Although dan will kick me into shape if I'm wrong

Haha, it's the only way! I've worked out today, that if I slide the seat closer, then I can sit back, and reach the steering wheel without hunching. However, now i turn right when I move my foot onto the brake :dapprove:

Yeah, rolling road figures can never be taken seriously, but when you've got two cars side by side, and one makes a good 10bhp clear of the other, it's fairly impressive

Indeed! We were all on the rollers that day, his was a good 10bhp over mine, with matched inlets and a remap.

Grays ph1 is a pretty high figure, at 187 on a near enough standard engine.

Last time I measured myself I was between 6"4 and 6"5, I'm just rounding up :rasp: Done that, didn't help :( It's definatley the reach on the steering wheel that's the problem

...or a short arse

That sounds ideal! Can the people at JMS offer this service? Edit: Might have read that wrong... I take it you mean, dropping the steering wheel down, lower than the adjuster currently lets you?

I did think that originally, but it's definately the hunching to reach the wheel that gives me back pain. Exactly the same mate! My upper back and shoulders kill! Like some ones torn my neck muscles or something daft Christ! Sounds a bit extreme!

Hmmmm you make a good point about moving a hard metal object closer. Is there more to the airbag connections than just two wires?

Oh yeah, the slash cut looks awsome. It's the insides of them that I'm not a fan of, the way they slope in.

Now I thought that might be suggested, but I really can't be doing with dished wheels, there's just something about them that I don't like. If it'd help my back though, it might be something that needs looking into

You wish ;) Says Mr. I'vehadtworespraysonthefrontofmyoversizedcliobecauseIcan'tdriveitwithouthittingthings :rasp:

It is ineed Blueflame. Getting them to line up is a ball ache, but they sound awsome with a decat. Just a shame the tailpipes look crap.

Having driven 400 miles in a clio with coilovers set to firm this weekend, I am seriously going to have to address the seating postion before I develop a hunch back. Being 6"5 I struggle with leg room, but then I find myself having to hunch over to reach the steering wheel. My neck gets really...

Looking very nice! I've finally got my collies to the right height/damping. I had a fun drive back from yours the other week :dead:

oooooooh... quotes 'ey? I'll be going quote mental! New roof skin... Dents removed... Respraying bumpers and quarter panels...

Very nice! Best colour and everything, just a shame it's a cup ;)

Gravel can make some strange noises when caught in tyres, sure it's not just the tyres "pinging"?

Blueflame. Not a fan of the tailpipes, which is why I never clean the insides of them. It sounds awsome though, when the baffles aren't rattling around.

Boosh indeed.

Hello

Looks very nice! If you're after a splitter, I've got a group buy running for them at the minute?

Surely it wouldn't be unexpected any more though, if it were expected?

Everytime I pass a Renault dealer, I'm always tempted to pop in and ask how much it'd be for an exhaust system, including cat. Then laugh.

Facking hell! You can get them for £30 or something like that, from eBay!

Was that including lube?

Nice one, good little project that is! The written off clio reminds me of mine, horribly.

n0rms asked me to put his name down, we haven't got a list from what I can see though. So... 1. n0rm
