well yesterday i managed to get the mini booked in at rs tuning for its tweak on the map for the new injectors 2.5" exhaust system and the longer 90mm trunpets, to be honest i wasnt expecting it to make much of a difference from the previous session where it had made 203bhp well after paul had...

i had my e91 330d over with paul at rs tuning yesterday for him to check everything was all good and he decided he wanted to stick a map on it for me and have to say what a cracking job hes done (as usual) the car drives completely different and the torque is imense and in the wet and the...

took the mini for its first outing at oulton park yesterday for a shakedown test. it highlighted some pretty big issues like rear tyres scraping on the metal arches and causing the rear end to drag round and make the rear snap out and making me spin. also when engine had got hot after a few laps...

i went to fit my camber bolts which i purchased off a fellow cs member but when i put them in the top holes of the strut they just wiggle around and do sweet FA. now am i doing something wrong or are they wrong for my car? are they the same for all mk2 clios or are they specific for each car?

right i have the ideal opertunity of a full respray on the clio. its something i have wanted to do for a while but not been inspired :( i think the problem is choosing a colour, the colours i have been considering are rb, white, my painter is really keen on doing it in the GULF petrol colours...
