Thanks for turning your high beams on before overtaking. That, or your levelling is shagged.

Both Washer pumps are flat dead on Soph's 182 with Xenons. It looks to us like there is a twin outlet pump & a single outlet pump. Her dad ordered one of each off eBay, and apparently the connectors were wrong. I've just rung Renault, and they say it's 2 of the same pump (at an extortionate...

ABS/SERV and Traction Light have been on Soph's car for a few weeks now. Had a sniff around it today checking the ABS rings (fronts are fairly crusty but not cracked), and noticed the N/S/R caliper sticking. After playing with that, it appears the piston isn't retracting after the handbrake is...

​Who's this?!

Most of you know I'll be owning a white car soon. Now this worries me, because frankly I'm not interested in cleaning enough to spend 8 hours a week making it look spot on, but also want the cars I own & actually like to look spot on. I want the easiest way of keeping white sparkling. No...

Around 8.30, in 3 lakes. 54 plate IIRC, CS sticker in the rear window, some form of aftermarket exhaust I think too.

A few weeks ago, JMImports informed me that I had won this Skyline at the Japanese auctions. Today, she's made her way to the docks and I've received the pre-shipping photos. It's a 94 model, with just shy of 80,000 miles on the clock. She's no pristine example at a Grade 4B, but JM will sort...

The other weekend, I thought the clutch on Soph's 182 was starting to slip. If you floored it from low revs, they would shoot up about 1000rpm until road speed seemed to catch up, in all gears but 5th. However, since then it seems to have stopped as we can't replicate it. Now, I'd expect a...

If anybody around Yorkshire is after a cheap reliable runner, my Megane hasn't let me down once... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Renault-Megane-1998-S-1-6-8v-Alize-5-Door-Blue-60-000-miles-Cheap-Runner-/170924908919?forcev4exp=true#ht_500wt_1156

I can't look at the exhaust to sort this out as the car is in the UK and I'm in Prague, but the joint on an old Yozza system for a 182 near the rear axle is blowing. Anybody know the gasket size? I'm assuming it's a normal 2 hole 2.5" gasket, but could do with it confirming.

So, in a totally oddball choice for me, I've wound up buying a Honda Accord Type R. In silver too, a colour I generally loathe with a passion! So yesterday I made a 4 hour round trip with the Mrs to Hartlepool, and came back with the car. Pretty much full service history, just rolled over to...

Been taking some pictures of my mate's 200sx as he's selling up. He painted this the same time he painted my old 14a for me. Gareth Jones' S14a by gaz_roberts01, on Flickr Gareth Jones' S14a by gaz_roberts01, on Flickr Gareth Jones' S14a by gaz_roberts01, on Flickr Gareth Jones' S14a...

Had a pop at using some on my stepdad's car, but having a hellish time with it. Car has just been washed and has AG ultra deep shine on it. I've misted the pad once and tried to apply it as little as possible as per the bottle. Problem is it just causes a smeary oily looking patch about the...

It turns out the RX7 is so old school it doesn't have a clear coat, but that means it needs more care really to prevent it fading in the UV. I loathe polishing & waxing, so I need some sealant that I can apply over Blackhole quickly and easily. I'd use Colli 476 but frankly I hate spending all...

Wondered if I knew you, Don't think I did tbh. Black Rx7 and RB182z

Well, this has been a long awaited thread (for me anyway!). Last night, I finally had my RX7 sat in the garage. I put a deposit on it 3 weeks ago, was meant to collect it last weekend, and the seller finally brought it up to me this weekend. So, some details. Imported from Japan around 6 months...

Apologies if it's a repost, searching on Tapatalk sucks. http://www.twinturbo.net/net/viewmsg.aspx?forum=general&msg_id=2079707 EDIT: Can't even type the bloody name right either, it's Zama.

Spotted a low orangey 182 going over the harbour bridge in Whitby town, had a carbon wrapped roof IIRC. Around 1.30PM.

I know these need to be removed when doing discs, but are both a standard right hand thread, or is the N/S/R a left hand thread? Also, what's the torque figure for them, must be knocking around 200lbft or so?

Anybody know which type of coolant Type-D is, OAT or Glycol? Won't be buying the Renault stuff for a label when I get Trade elsewhere ;)

Can anybody recommend me a good online reasonably priced print company for a wedding album? Snapfish sucks the quality out of photos, and iPhoto won't log in to my appleID account for some bizarre reason (itunes will though.) Not looking to pay the earth, just want something which doesn't rape...

Saw your car, never noticed you though to say hi.

Awesome quality.

Sat on a sliproad in traffic this afternoon I noticed the engine light flashing for a minute or so on Soph's 182. Once we got moving it stopped and hasn't come back on. Worth plugging it into a diagnostic for, or is it something of nothing? The car felt fine, no adverse running at all.

Start a bit slowly, but very interesting if you're into engineering & the F1.

Some may know I refer to the car as the Whale Penis now and again, f**k knows why. Anyway, cleaned and sealed it up for the winter. Regas will be coming off soon for winter rims to go on :( SX Side by gaz_roberts01, on Flickr SX Nose by gaz_roberts01, on Flickr SX Rear Flank by...

Parked on a road down from a nursing home. Lowered on orange wheels, scene type stickers on it.
