Going towards the motorway junction round about coming from Two Mills direction.
Think you had speedlines and a carbon splitter? Looked lush!
Anyone on here?
Cheers again for the good comments!
I don't think I am going to colour code guysy.
I have done/doing my badges (side, front and back) in Ford Graphite Grey and my wheels will be the same colour, so it might all go with the bump strips anyway!
They're great mate!
They were brand new, so no worries about wear at the moment.
Feels a lot more comfortable going around corners now too, which is always a good thing.
Finally got it lowered yesterday with help from a mate.
It's currently on 60mm Apex springs, until September (birthday) when it shall
be on coilovers!
Excuse the missing badge, it got sprayed today :cool:
Next things to do are:
-Headlight correction
-Brakes
-172 wheels and change the colour...
I'm still not sure about this game. Playing with mates on the demo, it was fun.
Being the Marine is ok, stick together with shotguns ftw.
Graphics are a bit hit and miss, but it's only the demo.
Oh and being Alien is far too fun :D
Love stalking Marines and hissing above them then dropping on...
Kneel - I will have a look over everything you've mentioned, I reckon it might be the earth to be honest. The wiring kit isnt new, but I had a look over it, changed the fuse etc, and it should all be ok.
Brown Bear - Cheers, I shall have a look for that shortly.
Yeah, I wanted something a bit better, but being in uni, I just grabbed something as cheap as possible!
Ive got the ground hooked up to the little bolt behind the back seats.
I was going to use the larger bolt on the rail behind the seats, but couldn't get it off after WD40 galore!
Need better...
I felt like buying some cheap ICE last week, so I purchased a FLI Trap 12 off Ebay, with a wiring kit etc, got it all for £48, not bad!
Fitted it today, got everything done fine, until i got to testing it out...NOTHING.
The unit doesn't seem to have any power going into it at all.
Now the...
It's quicker top end than the VTR, only because of the 16v's.
Feels boggy down the low end because of that too.
My VTR was pretty nippy anyway with the Manifold, exhaust system etc etc
So there's not that much difference overall!
Cheers for all the good comments, and the pictures posted of other 1.6s look great!
It's so solid compared to the VTR, which seemed so highly strung all the time, felt like it was going to break 24/7!
Ahh cool, I'm in Uni in Chester doing Photography :approve:
There are tons of mags out there, but Amateur Photographer, Digital Photographer etc should suit you more. Saying that, they're all useful!
Hey all, taken me a while to get round to posting pictures of the car, been very busy in Uni.
Got it a few months back, had a VTR and wanted something a little more solid, the 1.6 engine is just nice, and better that what I was wanting (a 172) on the insurance.
Plans are as follows;
Lowering...
I'll have to keep an eye out for you in Chester mate.
Lovely shots, a tripod would of helped alot, but practice makes perfect...
Why not read up on Night photography, and learn about exposure times etc?
There's always good features in the monthly mags.
New-ish to the forums, but seen a few around...
This morning in Chester uni, by the old English buildings. There was a Blue
Dci, colour coded bumpers, white Dci bullets, RS grill.
Parked next to a nice Two-tone Vtr.
Last week, a black ph1 sport? With black alloys going past the hand car-wash.
Whoops, forgot about the car details!
Cheers Nick.
Im heading off on my holidays in a day, so when I am back I will buy the full
membership don't worry.
I plan to use this as I have done other car forums with past cars for parts etc.
Just thought I would join Clio Sport and say hello. I bought my first Clio today.
Part Exchanged my Saxo VTR and paid a little extra and ended up with
a 51 plate 1.6 16v Clio :approve:
I will post pictures when I have to car and probably start a progress thread.
