    Gearbox Worries for a Novice!!

    Get it to a specialist. They'll probably have seen the same issue many times already, and will be able to offer more advice on what's wrong.

    Mansfield Meet

    I don't know whether I'll be attending or not yet. Depends if I get my own car back by then, and if the wife wants picking up from work.

    THE INTERNET IS USELESS WITHOUT GOOGLE.

    That's easily sorted. I forgot he couldn't Google though. Follow the link above and give it a try. If you don't have permissions to install it, download the standalone executable from the same page instead and I'll talk you through elevating your permissions ;)...

    Download HiJackThis. Run it. Post the logfile up.

    Uprated Clutches

    It does handle the power and torque fine though. I reckon it makes launching the car easier too. Personally, I'd say don't bother unless you actually need one to run big power.

    Probably this. Sounds like your hosts file might have been tampered with.

    Uprated Clutches

    It's very VERY harsh at first. If you go from a standard 1*2 clutch to the Helix paddle clutch you'll probably end up stalling the car every 5 minutes for the first hour or so of driving (like I did). It's very heavy compared to standard and the biting point doesn't become apparent until you've...

    Best deal on Microfibres at the moment?

    Tesco - 3 for 99p and as far as I can tell there's nothing wrong with them. Then again, I'm not a detailing geek...

    Possibly the best courtesy car I've ever had...

    Don't see why not. It's just having a few little niggly bits and bobs sorted out (bushes replaced etc). Nothing major, but I can't get time off work in the week at the moment so I've opted to leave it there until next Saturday. Not much in this instance. Seen it done before. Cars and bikes...

    Possibly the best courtesy car I've ever had...

    It needs more grunt TBH. That's the only thing wrong with it. It feels slow, not just compared to my car but to any 1*2. It's only done 18K though, so maybe it'll loosen up with age and mileage. Other than that, I really like it :)

    Oh trust me, I do! Not that this is a bad car or anything. It's great in fact.

    Ambulance: don't watch unless you intend on buying!

    Because it's an Amberlamps, innit.

    Should I make a Genius booking?

    Netgear kit is generally shite. Every piece of Netgear equipment I've ever had has developed a fault. Every piece of Cisco kit on the other hand has been flawless. Netgear stuff is cheap for a reason - you want quality you pay for it.

    Should I make a Genius booking?

    They'll only try to sell you an Airport Extreme anyway, even if you don't need one. Personally I'd take the laptop to somewhere other than your own home and test the wireless connection there first. If it's still crap, by all means go see a "genius". If it's better than at home, get yourself a...

    Happy SysAdmin day!

    What products do people want to start seeing? (clio related)

    There aren't many options for lightened bonnets available at the moment, especially for the Ph2's. The only ones I've seen are carbon fibre ones which generally cost an arm and a leg. Perhaps a cheaper carbon fibre option, or a fibreglass or aluminium alternative would be good for those looking...

    Just got my CCNA

    Definitely. A lot of the questions are simply multiple choice and you can more or less learn the answers. But the hardest bits by far are the simulations. You have to know how to configure / troubleshoot the routers / switches, otherwise you'll lose too many marks. If you answer all the multiple...

    Just got my CCNA

    CCIE level is pretty overkill for most jobs. The level of expertise required to achieve that certification is unnecessary for most employers, hence why the professional level certifications were introduced in the first place. If you look around for jobs requiring a CCIE you won't find many. It's...

    What products do people want to start seeing? (clio related)

    A tubular manifold that comes around the back of the engine to where the battery and ECU normally sit, in order to allow a much bigger turbo to be fitted than K-Tec's current offering. Oh, and a downpipe and other pipework to suit.

    Just got my CCNA

    All the Cisco Professional level qualifications (CCNP, CCSP, CCVP, CCIP etc) are pretty hardcore. But then again they're nothing compared to the level of skillz you need to even attend a CCIE vetting interview.

    Virgin Media broadband and Macs

    Your broadband will have nothing to do with the issues you're having, especially if the other machines all have a decent connection. You've either got a s**t or misconfigured router or you've got a configuration problem somewhere on the MacBook.

    Uneven brake pad wear?

    Probably, but I'll end up buying 4 pots sooner or later, so it might as well be sooner.

    Uneven brake pad wear?

    Where can the spare bits be purchased? Or would it be quicker / easier / cheaper to just get new calipers? If it's going to cost much more than just disks, pads and braided lines I might as well just go straight for a set of 4 pots.

    What are you like with your friends/passengers and your car?

    Oh yeah. The headrests being up really pisses me off too. Not something I have to worry about now though. Stripping the rear FTW.

    What are you like with your friends/passengers and your car?

    I'm not too bad with friends / family in the car. The only things I don't like are: - Other people farting. If I fart it's OK because it's my car. - People smoking in the back seat because there's no ash tray and the windows don't go down. I don't mind smoking in the front seats though because...

    Clio 200 at local Garage

    CL10 FTW would be better. It wouldn't surprise me if someone on here already has it.
