I was shocked with how well it matched myself lol..... I'm happy that it all worked out better than I thought!

And thanks for the comments everyone!

I'm popping down Peter Lloyd Rallying this weekend to see if he will do me a deal on Corbeau Sprint seats and some side mounts :)

Well this weekend the cage got finished off.... day later because I took it home to paint strip (found some rust we wanted to sort out) and the paint strip stuff I got was crap, the jet wash broke and I only had till 5 to sort it.

So Saturday took it back down to the garage and used this stuff

Thanks for the comments people!

Looking really good, im sure you'll notice a difference on the track, i did once mine was fitted

Already noticed the difference going through the lanes to my missus house hehe.... don't feel so much body roll now and the arb are next to go on hehe.

Looks spot on!

Where did you get your harnesses from? I need on for track days.

I managed to get them off eBay brand new for £60 each, no longer FIA approved but they were back stock that the bloke never sold.

Right then, mission now is to get more power around 170bhp and I'll be happy. So after searching like crazy for a manifold because Supersprint does one but that’s for the LHD model and it would catch the steering rack or something. I found out that TSR produce a 4-1 manifold and downpipe, so ordered that straight away and down to prospeed to get it fitted, would have did it myself but there was not bracket on the sports cat to downpipe it was welded together.

Noticed a lot of difference the car picks up better and rev more freely :)


So what car was that actually for dude, as i have spoken to dave at TSR an he is getting some made for the 1.8 GTI 16 Mrk2 golf, is that the same one you have? how easy did the guys at prospeed fit it?

Cheers for the help from he pics on fitting the cage, you should sell it as a walk threw gonna sale threw fitting it now :)

Thanks again :clap:
