    How can I improve the front of my clio.

    Just leave it the f**k alone. Why does everyone need to 'improve' things ?! Go find the comedy green monster truck project, read that, observe then leave yours alone. It looks fine. :rolleyes: Your plate - is it a private one or just a ridiculous coincidence ? :approve:

    Gordini stripes dimensions?

    People aren't 'hating' .. they're suggesting it's the wrong path to take. Everybody wants to be individual, but generally do the same thing over and over (tints, comedy sized wheels, paint things funny colours and sticker up). It didn't look good in 1994, it doesn't look good now. Most use...

    removing cams and mapped ecu

    What's wrong with the 182 ? Yes, the cam belt needs to be removed to get the cam off the head. :S

    Mine's a 12 plate too.

    I don't like waiting 2 days for a new car once it's decided, let alone 2 weeks. Timeless plates FTW if you're ageist !

    Three finger tap = Dashboard. WTF !

    Right.. unless anyone has a better idea, I've basically disabled the Dashboard. Never really saw a point to it anyway ! For anyone else in the world with this problem - http://www.macworld.com/article/46236/2005/08/disabledashboard.html

    Three finger tap = Dashboard. WTF !

    OK I've tried another program which is much more customisable.. told it a 3-finger tap is middle clicking, but this still hasn't solved it.. there's still no option for Dashboard to click anywhere !? ARGH !

    Some help from the pros please?

    It's like saying I need a car to enter a race, what shall I buy ? Is it off road, an F1 race, an economy race, a drag race... Just use the one you have and see where you're coming up short. If you need a macro lens, buy one. If you need a wide angle lens, buy one. If you need to photograph...

    Three finger tap = Dashboard. WTF !

    I've been using a program called 'MiddleClick' for quite some time now on the Mac. It simulates a middle click on the mouse (obviously), enabling a new tab to open or close for instance. This was working fine until JUST this moment. I switched off my wireless keyboard, and then plugged the...

    Best memory card for Canon Eos 1100D?

    Cheap as you can, higher class means higher speed but in reality you'll hardly know the difference. http://www.play.com/Electronics/Electronics/4-/19666791/Play-com-16GB-SDHC-Memory-Card-Class-10/Product.html pour examplé.

    Newbie looking for a daily driver

    All that's wrong that you can see from the ad... Common faults are shocks, gearboxes, timing belt failures (if not done properly).. £1200 becomes much larger if that all goes boobies up ! :quiet: Generally yes in my experience, but they're 10+ years old now. Depends how well they've been...

    Recent pics of the R26 (few little updates)

    HU looks good. Glad you sorted it in the end. Don't personally like fact it's on show (doesn't look like it is removable face / spinning to hide ?) but that's just me. Nice work :approve: :evil:

    HID's HELPPPPPPPPPPP

    Chavtastic. Good luck !

    Newbie looking for a daily driver

    Don't see many these days, most get broken. Car's worth <£1000 as a C/D, but wheels are £200+, interior is £200+ .. you get the idea. I personally wouldn't want one that had been smashed unless I knew what happened and who did the repairs etc.

    Newbie looking for a daily driver

    You can find cars for that price, but in most people's experience they are dogs and you'll pay twice that on servicing etc unless you're ridiculously lucky ! I think I'd be looking at £1.5>£2k minimum if I were to buy a Ph1 again today.

    182 to Ph1

    Daft idea. You'll save nothing. You might get a grand in your bank between sales, but factor in a belt change or duff shocks or two new tyres and you'll wonder why you bothered. You want a £100 diesel or a mk1 Ka if you want cheap motoring.

    Newbie looking for a daily driver

    Ph1 has longer gearing than the ph2, no electronic aids and cable throttle. Mine had mild breathing mods (ITG, matched inlets, decat and exhaust) and would easily see high MPGs on a run. I don't think it ever went below 30 even when I was doing 2 miles each way to work on a dual carriageway...

    a little help please

    MacBook you say... what about iPhoto ?! What software came with it ? I've never had a problem loading Canon's own stuff onto my Mac. Are they RAW or .jpeg files ?

    Welcome ! Another from Bas Vegas. There's a lot of sports around here. Accord 2.2 diesel ?

    iTunes r****d....

    That's what I'd do. If that doesn't work, let me know and I'll think of a Plan B. Maybe tick the 'compliations' box ? What album is it..?

    iTunes r****d....

    Highlight them all - right click - get info - type album name in box - close.

    You can / should be able to. I turned them off my Ph2 172.

    Newbie looking for a daily driver

    Welcome ! You after a Ph1 172 ? Mine was good for 40 easily, and 45-50 on a run depending how careful I was :rasp: However, with only a grand, you're going to end up with a dog, bearing in mind these are now heading for 12 years old now. It'll probably want belts doing too which is £500+...

    Fair play. Glad nothing has gone boobies up so to speak :approve:

    Front door speakers help

    They will do to come extent. However, I binned the one that came with my latest car though as it was truly awful compared to my one. /nerdyaudiophile
