[rich.h44]

not as yet no, sat in the garage at the minute, still working on the house. Bought a little Polo TDi though for daily drive now. will put some pictures up when i get chance

is it at the point of been a full track car now then?iv got a 306 dturbo at the min wile i sort mine out!but i carnt resist and have done a stage one tune and got an fmic aswell!,you got the cage in yet?

 

[ian_cupra]

very much so yeah

 

[ian_cupra]

Right then, finally got my nice new manifold from JBS. Just need to find the time to get it fitted.
Next job is to get my brakes removed so i can get them sold to a fellow SCN'er, which will be a sad day as i do love those brakes but needs must.
Once i have the brakes sorted its time to take the gearbox out and get it sent off to get a diff fitted, and while the box is out i'll be getting the cage fitted

i'll post a few pictures up of manifold and a couple of other bits tonight

Good news Ian, If i was keeping my car, i would of bought your Brakes off you.
Lets hope this "JBS" Mani don't crack
And be awesome to see when you have your Roll Cage in it

Keep up the Good Work!

Ive already seen his roll cage




Was in about 50 pieces in his mates spare room along with all the interior bits that have come out. Wouldnt like to be the poor bugger putting that in.

Small update....

Got the rest of the aircon out, what a waste of effort it was. All that was left was the unit in behind the dash. Took me a little while to work out how to get to it, but i got it sorted. I was expecting a little more in the way of weight but never mind. 1.8kg was definately not worth the effort, but its done now

Brakes are being ordered soon, along with steering wheel and seats.

lol, I was always curious as to how much weight it was actually worth behind the dash

Not tempted to get the dash flocked while it was out? Nice one though mate, be good to see this back on track where it belongs

 

[springer]

Nice work

 

[tris]

Thats something I could not do with out on track
