  1. no mate you need to take a bolt out of the top of each wing and replace them with a screwed bolt that comes with your lifters
  2. I reckon stig would leave the r-type for this anyday!
  3. I don't think that is a good price at all. Do you have any diy mechanic skills? If so you could have it done in a couple of hours. But like, the pump is £30, £270 for labour is a bit steep IMO
  4. Put me down for cheshire, I might need a passport to get to worcester!!

    MPG

    I keep my MFA on either oil temp or time - don't even bother with MPG. Just enjoy it I say. The Golf VR6 was not built to be an 'economical' car. Fact.
  6. Tick. What Eat This said.

    i love the look on peoples faces when they realise they have just been done by a ten year old howler and they are sat in a brand new sporty thing. ah, i will never grow up!

    MPG

    29 is the very most i have ever had, it's normally 23 - i think this is realistic!
  9. I got pulled on the M6 last week for, ahem, speeding. I have german pressed plates in the correct colours with GB badge - plod didn't say a word about them?
  10. I have infinity 6012i refernece speaker sin my golf and the factory grills fit fine. I dont understand why yours dont?
  11. my abs light comes on now and again, then next time i start the car it goes off. Braking is never impared. weird.

    MPG

    try using it with the rev counter past 4 - it's much more fun and this justifies the extra fuel consumption as the noise becomes like an addiction and before you know you are driving forty miles out of your way to find a long tunnel to listen to it in!! Sorry, got a bit carried away there
  13. deffo keep it! if it doesn't cost you to keep it, whats the point in all the heartache!
  14. i have a k&n panel filter in my oem airbox. There is a large cone inside the airbox which i have removed. my car sounds fantastic and revs a bit more freely than before. I haven't used a BMC before but i did have a K57i on my Gti which didn't do anything positive to my car,IMO. if anything I think it caused me more problems than anything and didn't sound any better than a free flowing mini cooper! There, thats my 2pence worth!
  15. the rear doors have the same speakers also
  16. i think the main speakers are 6" there are some tweeters in the dash as well but i dont know what size they are!
  17. is your car lowered? if so 45 or 40 would be better imo I had wheels with the same et as yours and the front were fine, i used 5mm spacers on the rear spacers were about £12 for a pair
  18. oh right! I'm getting my front end painted soon and was wondering if anyone had 'moved' their washer jets from the top of the bonnet. Looking for ideas where to shove em out the way!
  19. where have you relocated your washer jets? It looks really good without! lovely car mate.
  20. you might find without spacers at the rear that your hub bolt covers protrude through the wheel not allowing you to put a centre cap on your wheel.
  21. ok, bit l;ate but heres the pic of the backside of my manifold. hope its what you were after! [lightbox=../../e107_files/public/1184069014_5300_FT182168_009.jpg][/lightbox]
  22. Very nice mate. What kind of headlights have you got?
