A few pics from Spa, not many as I didnt get on track til 11am due to the car playing up (started 10mins off the ferry! drove at 65mph as i couldnt find the prob, absolutely massive thanks to Andy GDI (there with track action) for finding the faults on the morning of the trackday otherwise id...
new Imola & custom subframe, bar welded in rear for 5 point harness (kept original seatbelt for everyday use), courtesy of Yoz & Fred. seat is a snug fit and so much more comfortable than the original, looking forward to being properly strapped in at Spa. new 330mm OMP Targa to replace the 300mm...
a few pics from Donny at the MLR/SIDC/GTROC club day, not great tho! track was wet to start with, weather stayed dry til about 11am then showers all day, track was very greasy. while i was waiting to be towed (throttle cable snapped on 2nd lap aproaching the bend at the pits) i saw several...
few pics from yesterday at Prospeed as i needed a new zorst (pics of old & new), the prospeed motors, a polo (anybody recognize the engine?), & a cup..
looking at online reviews of the samsung D900, most say it has 'soft' ringtones even at level 5, any users comment? changing contracts soon, currently have SE W850i, ringtone volume is spot on, only gripe is when you go to lock the phone, if you havnt hit the first key (star key) hard enough...
thought id post a couple of pics, cars been off the road for a couple of months, big thanks to Andy & the GDI gang, had a few niggles to sort, the Emerald ecu causing the most problems, overfueling (cutting out over 3k) and not having enough adjustment really, Emerald sent Andy stuff to try &...
I plan to chop out the number plate area on the valver, for better cooling, i need to mesh out the whole front section to protect the intercooler/engine. i was looking at 'lockwood' mesh, anybody used it? or recomend something, open to ideas, id like something sturdy (needs to be cut with wire...
had my 30gb ipod video for 8months, i uploaded the latest software for the ipod itself (not itunes), now when i hit the shuffle button it picks an artist and just plays their tracks, it wont shuffle anymore wtf. if i restore the factory settings will it fix it? this will erase all my music from...
following the sudden demise of my 172, Flans 16v caught my eye & im now the proud owner, picked her up on thursday & today had a proper drive, when i think of the £ i spent on trying to tune my RS :rolleyes: , if id have known about transplanting the VAG lump, there should be more of these...
the original seats in my 16v have an arm at the bottom which once pulled moves the seat, reclining it instantly. having just bought some daytonas they dont seem to have this, do the daytonas work with this arm? or is it that the daytonas only recline using the dials on the bottom of them? never...
of course i will try the williams forum also but, the car is running Avo road sport suspension at the mo, which il probably change, what setups have the williams owners tried? from Ledas to the H&R's to name a couple (maybe compared to what i have?). the car has plenty of power but the handling...
got some seats to go in my 1.8 16v, cobra seem to do universal subframe, anybody used them? as the specific frames for mine are £135 on r-tec...ouch :eek:
another one bites the dust i guess, was going to brands hatch but now its off, rear ended on the a417 opposite the 'air balloon' pub, they reckon they have 2 accidents a week there, further up the hill a couple of hours later while i waited for recovery a tvr driver was thrown into the road. i...
looking at the one of the bbt packages, they say.. 'we are able to modify the angle of which the throttle opens in relation to how far the pedal is pushed ie: we can make the throttle body open fully with only a slight touch of the pedal if required. you cant do that with any cable!' so for...
following MarkM but having had quotes between £3-400 i decided to have a go myself, the install is not yet finished and may not be pleasing to the eye to some. i have posted to try & show it is not difficult for those who would like to do it. it may seem extreme for some but rather a battery...
..had a small cross threading problem, tried at least ten garages in aldershot (last was MILL LANE RENAULT who tried to quote me for a new hub etc @£500!) nobody could sort it but Mike fitted me in on short notice as i have a trackday monday! half an hour l8r & a bill under £20 all sorted, so...
longer studs needed for fitting spacers (172 mk2) best place to get them? or do i have to take the car somewhere for a 'perfect fit'? also do they make longer lock studs?
..most boring/annoying threads? for me A) 172/182 v the world. B) show me a picture of your standard car which looks the same as everybody elses standard car. C) clay bar fairies, how you spent 48hrs with your clay. the world would be a dull place if everybody posted the same stuff but these...
