  1. update for you guys mate is polishing up my inlet manifold, and its coming a long nicely. Spraying the inside of the runners black finished refurbing one wheel today, ready for priming and painting going to spray this up as a test wheel and see how it comes out. Pending how it turns out I will finish off the rest of the wheels, or if not, then I will be saving for a proper refurb Here are the red samco's as well...these were NOT cheap to say the least (£297.....) but will look awesome with the polished mani once it goes on. next up will be covering the top of my airbox in carbon (anothe
  2. got a few bits for the car recently new engine cover, now sprayed up in a crackle red. Came up a treat, so will get some pics up Managerd to get 4 genuine 4x16" Oz racing alloys, with 3 very good pirelli tyres for................£70!! result. Home refurbing these at the moment and will be done in an anthracite grey to give an OEM feel my mate is currently polishing the inlet manifold which is coming a long nicely
  3. which oil do you guys use in your VR's looking to do a full oil change on my VR, fully synthetic. what do you guys use, castrol, opie? Thanks
  4. Managed to get some pics today to show off some of the work so far De-wipered debadged All dashboard buttons pulled out at the moment, currently with a friend who is covering the faces in carbon Shows what a quick 20 mins of polishing the bits in the bay does. Really bought up the bits nicely Fresh new coolant bottle (as it had split from a previous issue of over heating), and polished up the piece next to it as well Part Cleaned engine bay. Sprayed inlet manifold to be fitted soon, but my mate who is doing the carbon bits is also polishing the runners Front fogs lamin-x'd And a pictu
  5. iPhone 4 but I'm not going back to iPhone after my 3gs samsung GS2 with dual core is where it's at
  6. Possibly looking at replacing my standard wheel. What have you guys got fitted? I Love the momo wheel...not very original but it just looks so good
  7. Well a few updates Debadged her (might be re-adding the badges though but covered in real carbon) pulled out most of the dashboard buttons (the blank ones) and my mate is covering them in real carbon Won a cat back Miltek exhaust system (oval tail pipe) which is getting fitted on Monday Lamin-x the fog lightts Got an inlet manifold. It turned up and it was already painted to a really high standard, anthracite, so my mate is just polishing the runners for me cut out the plastic insert on the VR airbox, so it is less restrictive now and got a green panel air filter fitted too Polished all the me
  8. Is that Storm Developments next to Reading mate? They are awesome. Use to get a lot of work done their when I worked in reading with my Leon Cupra top notch service
  9. where did you get the bonnet lifters mate? ebay? do they lift the bonnett high enough because I have had similar looking bonnet struts in the past and they were rubbish and did not lift the bonnet high enough?
  10. well I managed to get a blinding deal and got a cat back Mitlek system for £185 from fleabay! really chuffed with it and getting it fitted on Monday (oval tail pipe)
  11. Looking to get a new exhaust for my VR, but which one Miltek springs to mind, but they are very pricey, and to be honest, from some of my friends cars, their build has been questionable lately Saw a lovely sound clip of a remus system. Anyone use this on their VR? Failing that, it might be the custom route, and a straight through system, but I think this may be too loud, which is what I don't want (non resonated)
  12. thanks mate, I might consider that What are the gains like (apart from more noise) to do the decat? although I thought it was illegal for anything newer than a 93 year old car to run a decat? only thing with a decat is less back pressure, and this isn't one of the torqueist (if such a word!) type engines....
