o and got a job in halfords on the ripspeed part, so hopefully wid my milltek wid me tomz, my new wheels ordered, waiting for my TIP and new part time job things r looking up " hopefully"
 
lol nice one dude

mines just been left at the vag garage round the corner, clutch is in the boot along with the downpipe, downpipes not a definite though as its a saturday and they said they'll prob close once my car is sorted

225quid in all! gutted but if this means that its got a new strong clutch that hasnt been abused and i can look after it then so be it

hows the road angel Phil? any good
 
Its taking ages to update this bloody thing, had a nightmare tryin to install the software as well. So far so good at the moment tho.
 
not even 255 :( more like 300 now bugger
price of the clutch has jumped from 85 all in, to like 130+vat

but great news is that my problems have definitly been down to the clutch plate, managed to get a pic of it and as u can see its almost as smooth as a babies bottom..

Ryan, the bloke doing the work, who iv learnt was made redundent by Newport Volkswagon after a good service there and has made it his sole purpose to take as much business from dealers as possible, said that it wouldnt have seen past the end of this year on standard power, let alone revo'd after a couple 1/4 mile runs


theyre taking care of it though for me, the garage is now locked up with my car inside, hes even gonna tighten up my splitter as its sagged down abit in the middle

all in all im abit happier now and other than the price of the new clutch, everything is ok
 
Glad its getting sorted Carl.

Phil did you get the road angel, through the other site?? I've been thinking about getting one for a while, but gotta sort out a laptop, and some cupboards.
 
just got car back now!

clutch is sorted car feels quicker now :D the clutch pedal is so light its hard to control at first cos i was so used to it being heavy! came to £300 though doh!

unfortunatly they didnt do the downpipe cos one of the studs snapped :cry: gonna book it back in the end of this week to get that sorted. it aint blowing at the moment and car feels great, but they'll have to heat it up to sort it but they should be able to do it easy enough

Then drive round the welsh valleys looking for random skips to chuck it in
 
PMSL, thats nuts Matt!

Carl, glad its sorted mate, i think i'll be getting my DP done soon too, as the exhaust is rattling a little, and im not sure if i need new exhaust mounts.
 
not tempted to keep the fezza and do that to the beeza the way you curse her sometimes lol?

seeing as im a unemployed bum and my girlfriends gone on holiday with the girls for a week im tempted to take the rocker and inlet manifold off my car to get them polished up and just use her car instead!
 
Good plan dave! That car never died on me in 4 years of getting repeatdly hammered daily.

taking the scenic route
