Went out for a few blasts yesterday - first time since before xmas on proper dry roads. Was pleased to find the clutch is still sound for now.....
Those Bridgestones are very drifty

I did the same yesterday only the local roads were a bit damp in places but my clutch seem to not slip at all until i gave a little too much power in fourth going up hill where i should have been in 3rd,my clutch seems to slip a lot more often when its cold.
I have got a new clutch waiting to go on its just finding the time and motivation to fit it.
Whilst we are on topic of clutches what do you all recommend for these cupra's?
Also don't want to go single mass but would you say OEM dual mass is good for stage2
finally where would be the best place to purchase these parts from, guessing Alex at AKS would be a good place to start?
Mine is fine at the moment but will need doing at some point so would like to know where I stand in advance.
Cheers
Craig

Revs had been rising for me in 4th/5th was worried it was clutch but seemed to all bite just fine yesterday. Pulls like hell in 3rd/4th, flooring it in 5th and 6th was fine too.
Must have just been the underlying dampness plus these non grippy Potenzas.
Think I might be pulling the trigger on this BCS plan with KebabWarrior, just cant decide on the extra couple hundred for powervalve or not.
Get some F1's when your ready to change them Paul you won't be disappointed.
I'm not going to bother with the powervalve mate just want full sports system with 200 cell cat.
Hopefully my clutch doesn't see its arse and decide to throw a paddy
Good efforts there mate nice and shinny
I was gonna drive down for a detail from Daniel, but it looks like my car will end up more filthy from driving out of his gaff than it is now
Must be that lovely Borough smog
It's this one Locky.....looks really really nice:
Check out this item I found on eBay: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=331432598472&alt=web
Was thinking if that would fit, it'd look awesome to compliment the black wing mirrors against red
That's not going to fit your motor Andy, I'm sure from 2010 onwards they are a slightly different shape/size
Yeah, as has already mentioned.
Such a shame as it's a proper nice grill that.
Don't know where I can get a badgeless facelift grill from. Keep searching but coming up blank
Will do some more searching but it seems there are none available, daft really as you can get one for PFL
Have found this one mate but it's not cheap

I've managed to source a TSi badge for a front grill. So I'm thinking get a badgeless grill mesh style & have the TSi emblem im the bottom left of right corner.
I currently have the mesh insert that fits behind the standard grill fitted to mine with the chrome edge wrapped black.
Not too bad at 74 for that grill. Think I'm gonna bite the bullet and buy in

Your welcome mate think that will look good with the TSI badge, get some pics on this thread of your efforts as I'm sure others will see it and think I want that in my life ha ha

Haha
Will do grill now bought!
Good effort fella. Sunday's are bad for spending money I've been looking all day at what I can buy lol. But holding back as I want a BCS system.
Haha it's the dust from work. I work on a steel making plant and the dust off the coal/coke etc is horrendous. Gets everywhere
Good efforts there mate nice and shinny
Thanks Craig, took me about 5 hours. Is dirty again now due to the rain.

Lol, blame the steel works I work at for the dirt.
Know what you mean mate, the H&R springs are down to £122 + delivery on eBay now and its so tempting
