Couple of other updates. I have dropped off the gearbox to a gearbox specialist in the area, he will be fitting the Wavetrac differential i have bought. Also picked up some Brembo calipers which came off a Seat Leon Cupra R. I bought these after following some advice from a mate who said they would fit straight on but i now know this will not be the case. I will see what work is involved when i am ready for them to go on. In the meantime i had them powder coated red as they were originally yellow. Since i had the calipers powder coated i've had this really bad urge of getting a lot

seen as my vr6 gearbox has crapped out for the second time im looking to upgrade and go the v5 conversion. ive done a bit of research and i will need: v5 gearbox (assuming any gearbox code will work??) 100mm bolt in driveshaft flanges from a mk4 tdi mk4 gear linkage (will any mk4 5 speed linkage work or does it need to be v5) to make it worth while i was going to put in a tdi 5th gear as well to keep revs down when cruising (which one will i need mk3? mk4? or just any tdI) Can anyone help me out and confirm my information and fill me in on the gray areas much appreciated

Coolant crack pipe just got delivered. Would have preferred it in black but nobody had 1 in stock. Ordered this one form awesomegti.com

Some of the other bits i have ready to go on: Schimmel 263 cams supplied by Vince at Stealth Siemens 630cc injectors bought off ebay Arp head bolts which i read were a definite must when going turbo. Bought from h-tune.co.uk

So after all that fuss of wanting to sell it, today i ordered the following: KW V1 coilovers Eibach front and rear anti roll bars Raceland Exhaust Manifold Timing chains and tensioners Sachs clutch SFS Silicone hoses Oil G12++ coolant MK4 R32 head gasket Ermmmmm...... Oh and I'm waiting for someone on here to remove their 263 schimmel cams so I can purchase them. The plan is to pull the engine out, fit all the parts and replace anything that looks like it needs replacing, refit and then take it for a remap. This should be fun!!!

Yes next year we are arranging a rolling road day, probably at stealth and a annual meet. So don't worry

Thanks I am hopefully going to be starting in the next couple of weeks. With the help of a couple of mates aswell.
