    1 series external modifications

    Some nice graphics on the body will be cheap and can make a massive difference to your car. I quite like the M Sport, does it have the 5 spoke alloys? Carbon fibre bonnet and roof can look good and you can get film that mimics this. Please post up some pics when you can i'd love to see your...

    Ever wished you hadn't started

    How many of you guys ever started a project that you wish you hadn't. I have had to abandon 3 projects now. Perhaps I've been unlucky. I just bought a nice MG ZS - the previous owner showed me receipts for a rebuilt engine. I now get the car and the head gasket is split and I doubt the guy...

    Speed camera trigger speeds

    :lol: I had a hill to help me and saw an opportunity, the git just accelerated and made it really hard for me which is why I needed to crank it up to 70. I dont think the car had much more to give to be honest. Thanks for the info. Someone else said that my speedo at 70 was probably only...

    turbo oil flow?

    If the turbo is getting really hot it might be boiling off the oil. Does the oil levels drop much?

    Reconditioned parts.

    I'd rather have recon stuff that the cruddy replacements offered by some cheapo part companies. I had no trouble with a recon gearbox, alternator and starter motor. All of them seemed much better after they were reconditioned that they ever were.

    Speed camera trigger speeds

    I went past a GATSO the other day and it didn't go off. I was overtaking and when I looked at my speed I was doing about 70 mph. It was only a 60 mph limit, but this moron was driving slowly and then speeding up as I went to overtake him. I spotted the camera too late and was on top of it...

    New owner

    Sweet car, much better than an old jaguar! ;) :) It will look really nice lowered. I cant think why the ECS would complain unless you went really low.

    Hi from Australia

    So unusually for you things improved when you got married ;) Im sure the BM will more than make up for it. The 740s have a quite a few reliability issues over here from what i've heard. mainly electrical faults but with so many toys I guess that is what you can expect. Why not convert it...

    makes me laugh

    It depends a lot on the car. Jap cars are pretty good brakes wise as standard. Its when car makers fit the same brakes to a 1.4 and 2.0 that you start to worry.

    corrola levin and trueno sprinter

    They sound like an import specialist. There are quite a few around the UK. Most of them give a list of whats in their Japanese warehouse and they ship it over to you when sold. So long as you get a warrantee you should be ok.

    Do drivers slow up as they get older

    Do you think drivers slow up when they get older. If so why is this? My thoughts on this are that older drivers are probably as quick overall but take less chances. Is this your experience or do you think differently? At what age does this sensible im not invincible realisation occur...

    Favourite Fast & furious Film

    1. Tokyo drift 2. 2 fast 2 f 3. F&F 4 The F&F The cars looked better in the films according to my order. If youre talking plot then its probably reverse order. Overall its a good bit of a brain dead car gorp fest.

    Flashers beware

    I usually do a double flash. I think it is renaults that have a really slow clicky light flash. I prefer the ones you just pull to make it flash like in the Golf and Polo.

    Dealing with Ram raiders

    I find if you keep your lights on all the time people tend to move over if they are outer lane hogging. THere is no need to go right up behind them at speed! :evil::evil::evil::evil::evil::evil:

    advice on cutting bodywork plz!

    You can probably do something like that with a high speed jig saw. Laser cutting or a milling machine might be neater. I've seen some of these done on cars and it does look great but I dont really know how or where. Water shouldnt be too much of a problem but does need to be taken into...

    Critique of our main site please

    The bodykit pictures do look a bit chavvy if you dont mind me saying on the bodykits page. Some fitting instructions would also be good.

    What is your torque

    I wonder how many people actually know what the peak Torque is of their engine. How does that compare with your BHP? Be honest and own up if you had to look it up. Anyone been on a rolling road and were you dissapointed or surprised?

    What is back pressure

    Is back pressure a good thing? I've been told that a 4 inch exhaust will lose too much back pressure but no one seems to be able to explain what they mean. Is there a way to calculate the optimum exhaust size for an engine based on say the CC or BHP rating?

    Curves or angles

    I think it is too hard to choose. Both look good. Weve done curves to death though so perhaps its time to go back to clean angles and lines. What was that really pointy BMW? Was it the Z1 or 750Z? Volvo have always done angles and now they are going all bendy on us.

    How do you defrost your windscreen?

    30 seconds is all my kettle takes to boil the water so that would be too hot. Cold water from the tap does the job fine to me. Its over 0 degrees so will melt the ice. If you use enough it doesnt refreeze either.

    Clearing your windscreen of ice

    I nearly got hit 2 times today by drivers who had only cleared a small window in their windscreen.:mad: Surely it can't be that hard to spend a little more time and remove all of the ice from your screen.
