    Powder Coating Wheels - Centre Cap A Problem?

    When I had mine powdercoated, the guy sprayed the caps for me. I've not noticed them being any different but really, how often are you going to be looking at them / close enough to notice if it's a shade out !?

    Head Gasket

    Does it get mega hot on the gauge when driving normally ? Do you ever drive over 2500RPM ? Go for a nice long drive .. half hour or so. After 15 mins, make sure it's driven properly... use all the revs (legal speeds, obviously...)... get it properly warm (keeping an eye on the temp gauge...

    Subwoofer losing power??

    I think a Walkman is a safer bet TBH !

    Subwoofer losing power??

    Given your other threads... Sub+6x9s in the same box, and busted 6x9 cone, I'd say you need to have a rethink about the setup lol !

    Subaru Impreza front seats + Clio ?

    LOL nice bumpage :o Do it....! Nothing's impossible.. however I bought another Scoob instead. Anyone got a guide for fitting Clio seats into an Impreza ? I just find I get too much support from these seats, plus the driving position doesn't feel like I'm sat on a bar stool driving a...

    Fitting Component Speakers

    Dash info, no. But you won't miss it. The clock still works though. PM 'MT AUDIO' on here and tell him what head unit you've got.. he will supply you with a harness to do it :approve:

    Fitting Component Speakers

    As mentioned... OEM head units are awful. Standard speakers are fine once they've had the low freq's cut. Sub + fronts = perfect setup in a Clio. Back speakers are almost pointless. Take them out and set the fade to the front. Do you ever have people in the back ? Would they even notice...

    Engine conversion insurance

    If it didn't leave the factory with it.. it's not standard, is it ? If you replace a blown 1.4 with another 1.4, it's no different to replacing the battery for example. Sports are SO cheap now, what's the point ?! Insurance will be more than for a sport, it'll cost you a fortune to do...

    Recommend me a hi-fi system

    Budget ? Aiwa do some adequate stuff if your budget and opinion suits £30 of 'hifi'. KEF do some cracking speakers which are roughly the same as one years income if your name starts with HRH. Give us a clue ;) I'd recommend RicherSounds anyway. Proper amp and speakers, decent...

    downgrading in the world of ph1's

    Ah yes. Makes total sense. Sell car for <£1500. Buy new car for £500 and spend £1500 fixing it up to do track days then get bored and supercharge it only to sell up and buy an M3 months later. That's what happens on here normally, right...?! OP = More light needed on the subject...

    My PH1 Odyssey! :)

    First check out the guides in the photography section.... Use some braincells (I can't possibly call it common sense any more as it's uncommon) regarding posting blurry photos unless there's a reason you've chosen to blur the subject. Clearly a stationary car should be in focus. Rule of...

    My PH1 Odyssey! :)

    LOL. Why bother posting 2 blurry photos which are just basically taken from further away from the actually in-focus bad one ? :rasp: Aside from that, Ph1FTW (probably, I can't tell from the photos.) /photosnob.
