[mazzerati]

hya mate nice car, sure ive seen this over teeside park a few times on a wednesday night? Liking the black comps and brembos

Yep, dan the previous owner took it there, he has my old car now thanks cheif

Nice car, always liked the mk3s. How does it compare quality wise with the mk4?

Quality wise they are very much the same, still get the rattles, and you get the comforts traction, climate control, ac, trip computer.

I don't regret swapping
The middle screen is quite hilarious as little bumps turn it's back light off haha.

But I hate the fuel light. Why the fu*k is it so dam loud????!!

Finally found the thread , woo lol

 

[mazzerati]

Haha good effort cheif
You need petrol!

 

[Alex 17]

Haha , Yeah i know.. Waiting until my insurance runs out and after i've had the car a year and going after a mk4 r32 i think

 

[mazzerati]

Pfft you always have to go one up don't you

 

[Alex 17]

Haha , True.. But if im finished college doing no miles and earning plenty why not i say! I need the r32 sound in my life!

 

[mazzerati]

To be fair, would need turbo-ing though, you couldn't be getting spanked by Ibizas

 

[Alex 17]

Nah , Dont think i'd be too fussed.. New exhaust filter , lower ,map, hids etc and some exterior mods.. The sound alone would do it for me lol + 4 x 4 = win!
265 bhp aint that shabby

 

[mazzerati]

I'm sure you would make it look tight man, none of this tucking 11" wide wheels :S lol

They do sound nuts with straight pipes

 

[Alex 17]

Lets hope so , Just need too finish college and hope i get this job !

Thanks man, I was looking forward to my progress until someone rang me saying you can't have an exhaust for ten weeks

Rutty from zsoc he's my brother haha

Gunna set the suspension up properley on Wednesday as some b'lend decided reverse rake is good for handling, wrong!

All rattles are sorted yay
Except My custom (****) exhaust is banging on the floor!

Changed all the bulbs as they was all pretty much shafted, so nice and visible again,
Including to the policeman who if he was about 20 seconds earlier would of taken my license away from me
Spent some time talking to him about my car and what I'm doing to it, nice man actually haha.

I've got a raving dash too all the lights on the radio thing come and go as they please
And all brake discs are screwed as are pads
And my alarm is so sensitive it gets me in my house window and my remote to change it has broke so it's off to ram audio Thursday.

Where do i get the discs and pads for the brembos? :S

 

[AlexGSi2000]

Rutty from zsoc he's my brother haha

Cool, thought I recognised it... Im on ZSOC too.

 

[AlexGSi2000]

Where do i get the discs and pads for the brembos? :S

Bill (Badger5) in the traders section.
I bought some elliptically grooved discs & Ferodo DS2500 pads off him - great combo.

 

[mazzerati]

How much was they alex?
putting off stage 2 for another month as stopping this car is far far more important than going fast ha

rears doing tomoro, fronts done when i get prices!
two tyres for front too i think, or new valves as i think they are leaking :S

 

[mazzerati]

Haaa water pump packed in!
New one of those and may aswell do a cambelt again aswell. 10k cambelt change

Oh and milltek cat back on the way and custom 3" downpipe will be made cos I'm going hybrid ko4
