As I am stuck in decided to spend a couple of days on my car.
Day one
involved removing winter wheels cleaning arch’s with Gtechniq W5 APC, painting mudflap bracket as the paint had chipped, fit new discs and pads on front (did rears a couple of months ago) paint discs, give everything I could...
My Dad has a 2018 Honda Jazz (he's old lol) he keeps going on about reversing cameras, unfortunately they do not have them as an option for his model so got to go for a aftermarket one.
Anybody got any recommendations for one preferably one with the mirror screen so it looks a little neater in...
I have the “normal” thicker bracket PMS a/c delete kit.
I have just taken My car to bits to work on the power steering pump and as I have access is it worth upgrading to the new kit as it is not cheap...
My 182 is only really used for trackdays and today on the way to the RS trackday when I started the car I heard a quick squeal, just thought it was the aux belt needing adjustment (PMS a/c delete kit).
I adjusted the belt before going out on track but still a quick squeal on start up after...
I have recently brought a new laptop and all my folders ie documents, photos, music etc are directed to C drive my SSD but it is only 128GB and I want to save everything to my D drive which is 1TB.
What is the best way to go about this?
My desktop is 6 years old now and so slow it is becoming annoying.
I am looking for a laptop to replace it but no idea of what I really need.
I will be using the laptop for normal use ie internet and PP excel, word etc, playing around with my gopro videos but also using Solidworks.
With...
Looking online yesterday I seen the amazon fire 7 for £30 and brought it, As i have had a thought of using it for my track car for monitoring with something like torque pro and probably put a sat nav on it.
Is this tablet suitable for the apps or would I be better taking it back and getting...
I have my Gaz Golds on now and looked at a couple of places to get them set up,TCR want £300+vat and Lohan will not touch a Clio.
Anybody know anywhere else that is not going to cost half the price of the coilovers
I am going to be fitting my new wishbones in a couple of weeks, does anyone know the correct torque for the bolts had a search but can't fid anything?
Cheers
I have my roof scoop painted with rattle cans Hycote white primer Hycote florescent orange and a acrylic lacquer but after a couple of years it looks like a tortoise shell, all my badges and mirrors are painted the same way and they are fine so I assume it is the fibreglass.
The paint or paint...
I decided to paint my calipers again so removed it last night (just the front right) and put on a spare caliper but did not notice there was no nipple in it.
Today when I went to put it back on there was fluid on the floor but still fluid in the reservoir so just refitted the caliper as I have...
Ordered some silicone coolant hoses but not sure what clamps to get either jubilee clips or is it better to get some mikalor clamps or somthing similar?
I am changing the rad and removing my AC soon so while everything is out I thought it would be a good time to change the hoses.
Am I better reusing the Renault clips or replace them with jubilee clips?
Also does anybody know where to get some orange hoses from, I have found them on JS...
Not Clio related but thought it would be best in here.
I have a Suzuki Swift and the spring keeps popping off the mechanism, I assume this is normally a press fit but it no longer stops in.
I have tried drilling a hole through and I was going to tap it and put a bolt and washer on to stop it...
As my boot would knock when going over bumps I decided to fit some pins.
I have had them for about 4 months but finally got round to fitting them today, I cut some carbon vinyl out to put under the latch to stop it scratching the paint and used stainless bolts instead of rivets, not bad for £5...
Just had the 2016 Demon Tweeks book and you can now get AST from DT, so you don't have to deal with Curtis.
Don't know how the prices compare but may get CS discount as well.

£2890 +vat club sport 5200
£3150+vat 5300
My iphone 6 has randomly started to show "searching" in the top left corner.
It will be working fine and then "searching" will come up and no signal (wifi still works fine), it happened when I was in France a couple of weeks ago the phone was working fine then it stopped for 3 days, I tried...
Just come back from France fishing and Reims was a small detour so decided to stop off for a couple of photos, it was high 30's all week and on Saturday it never stopped raining:disappointed:, it would be a fantastic place when the weather is nice.
I am thinking of getting some coilovers for the track car but just wondering how much it is to get them set up?
Also whats included in the price is it just corner weighting and ride height or is a full alignment included?
Just working out a budget before I buy them.
I have been using the Dunlops for a while now and seem to keep getting a weird wear pattern, where it is creating a staircase type pattern.
I run 30psi hot normally but do up the front pressure to 32-34psi hot sometimes as the main loaded tyre begins to roll and wear the edge.
Sorry about the...
After changing the brake fluid on Friday from the Rockingham trackday just over a week ago so it is ready for Donington at the weekend I decided to give the track car a machine polish today as there were some fine scratches from using the cover when it is in the garage.
I used Meguiars 205 and...
I am thinking of wrapping the manifold but don't want to remove it as it is a pain.
I only want to keep the radiant heat away from the coil wires as it is affecting my shift light.
Just having a little look I could probably do to the red lines fairly easy with in inlet removed and possible get...
I will be removing my AC in a few months so while I am at it I thought of getting an ally rad.
The eBay ones are quite appealing for the price, has anyone got one?
This one...
What torque setting should the sandwich plate bolt be tightened to for a oil cooler?
I assume you tighten the sandwich plate a bit tighter than the oil filter to stop it undoing the same time as the filter when changing oil?
I have brought a SPA oil temp and pressure gauge but the bottom LED does not seem to be working.
When it is in the test mode with everything flashing the top LED flashes but the bottom one does not, can anyone confirm that it is supposed to flash in test mode?
