    Best Mod for under £150 . . . . ???

    I'd buy braided lines and a decat, but I'd fit them myself. I hate lowering springs with a passion

    Braided Lines

    I fitted Hel lines to ours, kept all the original fittings I used a screw driver to open the clip up then just got a set of pliers to close them up, bit of brute force tbh

    Do I sound like an old man?

    £60 is a lot of money for something like that, it doesn't cost much more to watch the BTCC events and you get a proper day of racing for that. Plus the fuel food etc, I mean we only live in Leicester but I bet it'd cost £20 odd

    Do I sound like an old man?

    After reading Russ's thred about autosport I thought I'd pop down as I haven't for around 3 years, and then I got some freebie tickets from an exhibitor. Anyway just looked and for a ticket for me and wifey it's £60 for the pair, now that just feels like a lot of money for a few hours of...

    I'm not a big fan of Clarke stuff, never lasted very long at work. I will say the Halfords pro stuff is actually pretty good these days, its what I buy now.

    Question for all you young uns

    No that's free it's only the renewal that charges, I think it's a good idea tbh. Stops stuff like people barrowing a license. Renewal also gets rid of expired points, I had to renew mine in 2010 and my 6 points were removed

    Advice please on cambelt,aux & waterpump change??

    Get it changed, if the worst happens and the belt let go its a very, very, very costly job

    Heel & toe gear changing

    The throttle response on the 197/200 makes it more difficult as you can't just jab ai it quickly. A 182 is far better to heel toe

    New Years Resolutions ......

    Mate I can definitely empathise with you, getting the movement back in my arm was one of the most emotional/happiest days of my life, i have never been so relieved. It sounds cheesey but I've become so grateful for the use of my limbs, its somethiing we take for granted.
