    iPhone camera

    Anyone know what happened to the iPhone camera in recent year or so? My pics have this awful silver look to the high exposed areas. Had iPhones since day 1 and this recent picture thing is awful. Tried various settings but always the same. It’s getting to the point I can see other people’s...

    Check out my shaft…

    Assuming cheap ass shaft prev fitted, new one is solid. Looks like the weld has been failed for a while going off the rusty crack. Just approaching redline in 2nd gear finished it off (the day before my booked track day). Lucky it wasn’t on track I guess!

    Remap advice for 200

    Is it worth getting a 200 mapped which has a decat system and cone filter? Or is it a waste of time and would it be better to put the stock cats on to get rid of the running issue decat creates. Car has an original main cat with it, this can go back in but I’m told the toyo manifold and main...

    Exhaust woes (loud)

    Does anyone have a resonated Ktec stealth system with stock cat? If so, is it much louder than stock? I have just acquired another 172 & it has a decat & non res Ktec stealth system! My god it’s literally deafening loud and the resonance is unbearable, like really, really bad. I’ve got a...

    Washer system operation

    One of the faults on a 172 I've recently purchased is the rear washer not working. When you press the rear washer on the stalk the front washers work instead. Now, obviously first thing I did was a quick google and found the pumps can be a problem. Bought a new pump from a motor factors (yes...
