I was going to start a thread on this but thought I’d seen mention. Just saw it appear on the fb sales page! I don’t know whether I’m more stunned at the prices for work or I’m more stunned what an idiot I must be when charging for working on Italian exotica! I’m just off to service an F40...

Sure you’re not 180° out? The cam slots are off centre. I still don’t get the idea of using a jubilee clip to do the aux tensioner, the spring is crazy strong and I’d rather not loose an eye! Regardless, It has a female square drive hole on it to allow you to easily move it like you would...

Changed a couple of bulbs which meant this... To get to these... to be able to see this... which lead on to be removing what was left of the sticky crap on the top surround. Painted it ‘hard hat’ black, came out well (dust is post hardened dust) so just got to do the rest of the nasty...

Wouldn’t exactly call it a shed. And you mean you don’t have a car giveaway business? I thought everyone did these days.

I’ve used these at work & love them, I’d have preferred one to the Milwaukee stubby I bought. Yes the Milwaukee is more powerful but the shape of this snap on impact is perfect for getting in places you’d want to with a 3/8”. The Milwaukee misses that longer snout and I find I have to use...

The timing belt fuss these cars attract does kind of annoy me slightly, it’s part of the running costs IMO. Do people also factor in the next 5 years servicing too? I get that it’s a big bill but it’s part of owning these cars and most of us that own them now aren’t kids who can’t afford to...

Indeed, I don’t really know why it’s being lumped in with ‘influencer’ wanna be gangsta channels and whole rants about them. They couldn’t be further from what you guys are moaning about The accent comment was because they’re northerners (still bad I guess) not “u get me bro” menaces. Jay...

I didn’t like the look of my pulley so ended up with a new one. Incidentally, I was told Renault don’t have them anymore but my local dealer could get me one in a few days. I ended up ordering from Kam as they said it was in stock and next day, sadly they didn’t have it in stock as it didn’t...

I think you’re confusing these people with Jake Paul lol. There’s lots of quality channels I watch on youtube, I never watch normal TV. Harry is one of my favs, I even watch his farming channel too. Driftworks is one of the better ones IMO as they’re all really down to earth and some of the...

Love driftworks YT channel, it’s not about drifting. It’s mainly Phill’s cool toys (Lambo GT1 build, GT3, 964 911 turbo, v10 M3, M3 CSL, E30 M3 etc) and the clio track action now with Jay & the Craig from dynotorque in his mini (plus some vids on restoring his Pajero Evo) The Aston Martin Craig...

Lovely car, it’s pure clio perfection on the Turinis :love: I really must get some Turinis for my car. I get the track car tyre choice thing but 15’s just look so wrong to me.

The alternator comment was for the timing belt. I didn’t remove the alternator but just tilted it out the way. Can’t remember exactly why but pretty sure it’s in the way of being able to remove part of the alloy cover the engine mount bolts to.

Just done mine the other week, It is a really tight job. One important thing is to make sure you get a new aux belt and tensioner too. Also, check your crank pulley before you start, mine was quite perished on the rubber damper part so held me up waiting for a new one. Soak the alternator...

Also, could you put thick grease on the flutes of the Tap? Might catch some of the swarf.

Must admit the clio is the one NA car I’m liking the sound of with an exhaust.

Don’t think they paid that much reading the FB post last night.

Nice. Really good looking wheel.

Yes the horn is grey plug. Don’t whatever you do use the metal clip for the horn if it touches any metal connection to the earth on the horn part. It does look like it might be isolated from it though? The black plug is for cruise control The clio needs two airbag resistors, you’re better...

ha, like me with my STI. I only bought it as it was a nice car and don’t really like the colour. Everyone tells me how nice it is but I wish it was sonic.

This never gets old, so satisfying.
