I was away to start looking for my own first system soon. Is there a need for night vision or are these Swann and Hikvision pretty good in low light? I'd Ideally like 5 cameras, two for in the house where wires wouldn't be an issues, one for inside the garage, another for the summer house and...

Nice colour... overspray ahoy though, did he just want a cheap job doing?

How did you find the Allen key hole held up on them while putting them in Marc? @Pauleds can you link yours too. They're tidy nuts... 😂

In lemans terms what you will feel on a machpherson strut setup is the car snatching at the wheel when you hit uneven roads, like holding tight to a country lane which is rough on the inside, it wants to rattle the wheel/drag you either way depending on negative/positive scrub IME. Appoligies...

On the apple ear bud front.... For your standard persons ear they're not!! I would imagine you need a lug like a used candle to get them comfy, design over function gone mad there. I'll be staying on my 6 for the time being, I hope. Ask me that with a 7 in my hand it might change.

I'd agree with this man. Don't spend the earth but put some touches of your own on, surely you's posters can remember your first car, you just had to do something to it. Painted side strips would improve it no end. A set of premium tyre's and original Renault wheels as another had said...

Sorry I can't be of more help, MM will have software to allow connection to a computer, being such a big company I wouldn't imagine you will get access. Ahh okay, so is yours one of the "illegal" cars? Was you lucky enough to get some spares for it, I have a complete front suspension set up...

I'm pretty sure they ran Magnetti Marelli ECU so if you're looking for a diagnostics lead of some type I would contact them direct, or a local dealer. Nice find BTW

I enjoyed my VXR, it was plagued with an overboost fault (made it faster) which turned out to be a vacuum pump, had everything swapped for new on that except the engine and box pretty much through warranty. Get yourself OPC front grilles, it slaps the Halfords right out of them IMO. Winter...

Pretty sure they're the same pod, just a different covering as they're fibreglass haha and I'm sure Chris at CMcomposites is doing them?

I wouldn't get hung up on what's listed, from what I gather Renaults part system is hopeless... Well experienced partsmen struggling with finding things. If you're looking for particular parts, search a particular registration that you know has "insert here" part fitted as when I went to look...

No.... they might be now from factory as they ramp down production on an ageing product line and slimline their production numbers. I have spent months researching the difference and 172 cups have different subframes, wishbones, drive shafts and steering arms compared to the original ph2 172...

Cheers folks. They rev out to circa 8300rpm and come on "lift" (Vtec) at 6200rpm, I see it as a Civic Type-r but it's cheaper on tax being a 1.8 litre, it is also more frugal if driven out of lift. They also have essentially a 140bhp engine before you come on cam so they're a lot more useable...

This is now up for sale, I have tried to update this thread but it keeps on crashing for some reason so I'll put up pictures later. https://www.gumtree.com/p/cars-vans-motorbikes/low-mileage-celica-t-sport-vvt-i-190bhp/1162684521 The car has just had a refresh for sale, front splitter painted...

It's a Honda colour, I'm pretty sure it's the same colour as my first car a Civic EK. Athlete Gray metallic is the name I think, I just looked through flip charts until I found a colour steering clear of any paints with pearl in there to cheapen it up. The colour itself changes quite a bit in...
