I bought a chip off eBay for £80 soldered it into the ECU myself and it made a huge difference There are gains to be had. The resistor mod is a bit basic and doesn't really do much

Not as much as you'd think. If you can imagine a drain pipe full of tennis balls you put a ball in at one end, a ball comes out of the other, not the same ball so you don't have to wait for the ball to run all the way through the pipe. Same sort of thing with an intercooler its already full...

The main problem with Silverdale is that no one maintains it between play days. So people with mad mud tyres churn it up and cut DEEP ruts but because its just left it gets worse and worse. I made it round on at's just about. The other problem is its quite narrow and people stop on the trail to...

An intercooler on its own won't GIVE you anymore power. What it will do is help you to hold on to what ever power you have got due to reducing thermal losses in air temperature. Bolting an intercooler on without adjusting the pump or boost pressure will have little or no affect in everyday...

Just bought a set of these AT tyres for the disco and wondered if anyone had any experience of them? They seem to do OK in the reviews but not really one of the names I've used before. My last disco had Grabber AT2's and they were great but at £250 For a set of 4 brand new I couldn't turn the...

I know that ! I was wondering as a percentage how many were 3door? Cause there were thousands upon thousands of D1's made so if its like say 10% that's a small percentage but still a lot of cars.

A Renault sport Twingo 133 Gordini more of a special edition than anything

Sorry didn't mean worth a couple of thousand I meant a couple of thousand made lol

So are we talking a couple of thousand ?

No cause the stratos wasn't turbo charged it had a Ferrari derived V6 in the back

Yep all the same places

Yeah this one needs sills and a few bits and bobs once its done it'll be a good un

ERM right, blanked off the egr, took off the fan, tweeked the pump, fixed the passenger door lock, fitted a stereo, new wipers, new head light bulbs, de greased the engine, would have serviced it but the stuff hasn't turned up yet that's about it really

Yep this is basic spec with no sun roof

I've bought one and just looking around on eBay etc most of the adverts say "rare 3 door" I was just wondering just how rare? I mean we've got a car that there were only ever 200 made so I would say that was rare but if there are like thousands and thousands of them that's not that rare.

OK did you top it up then go through the gears? What I mean is. Park it up hand brake on, wheels chocked, some one inside with their foot on the brake. Engine running and while you pump the oil in slowly go through all the gears up and back down till it starts coming out of the fill hole ? Was...

Ours is called Peanut cause its P reg and the bloke we bought it off must have said "its as sweet as a nut " about 50 times.

Tried the looooooong press and still nothing. :-( Might look into the mfu in the morning

OK I give up, my rear fogs don't work an MOT fail too. The fuse is ok and if I bridge out the switch the rear lights come on and the tell tail light on the switch works too. Its the non latch type of switch I can't hear any relays in the passengers foot well clicking and I've swapped no 1 and...

steve parker make them so it'll drop straight in
