  1. ahh, thats pretty good, i'm up for one of these guards though, depending on how money flow is at the time i have had enough of cringing everytime i see a slight bump in the road just hoping its only my exhaust scraping! when will these be up for sale then do you think?
  2. yeh that is true in a sence, but it does mean if you catch somthing its going do dent/cut ur sump gueard before your sump, but i do like the idea of having somthing inside the sump. I heard r32 sumps are shallower and fit the vr6 lump? done know how true this is though?
  3. what filter was used in the last photo of your car? to give the windows that blue-ish tint? or did it just come out like that?
  4. i could be intreasted in this, i was goingto make my own but that looks pretty smart
  5. I cant seem to find anywere thats sells the short HT leads, anyone know of anywere?
  6. arr! hope you get it in time then! im always around if you want a hand but i imagen youl be fine get some photos up when you get them and keep the updates coming!
  7. at 176 thats not far of doing the chains again and probly some more horrrors! the first option sounds more apealing to me! and at that price to get it all sorted its a bargain! get on it! heheh
  8. how much is that one up for? i suppose it worth comparing the price of a car that needs no work to a car that needs work and the price to fix it
  9. yehh i think thats a good plan, Best get some pictures up when you get them! . some coilovers would be necessary though, got to get it in the weeds raddos look 10 times better slammed. sounds good though, its nice to have abit of work to do with a car when you get it i think. gives you an excuse to do stuff to your new car without wasting money driving it to the shop to buy stuff you dont need as an excuse to use it ! hehe. Plus it feels more like yours when you have worked on it! il be looking forward to having another radoo in the club! just hope you get this one!
  10. Yeh i think 1.2k is good, id try to nock him down abit as normal, chains and a matrix arn't to bad if your mechanicaly way inclined. r32 lump could be a good choise with some silly cams1 :), 6branch and miltack sounds like a plan though! you got any photos of it?
  11. heheh! im looking forward to it! no doubt it will be a monster! you found any possible ones recently?
  12. looks realy nice mate, heres a couple of mine.
  13. Cheers mate, I went for some jamex in the end. I was debating something abit more up-market, but for what i use it for (my daily) I didn't see too much point in spending mega money. there actaly quite a nice ride, thre firm but not so stiff. so your not bouncing out your seat every 5 seconds.
  14. cheers mate, not done much since i bought it, tidied everything up, taken the 17's off and got them wheels for 21quid with tires! while i try to find some nice ones and slammed it on coilovers!
  15. i know wilco car master sell them, in like packs of 5 all different sizes, i belive halfords do aswell, iv done the same, de-wiperd and rubber bung
  16. took some photos today, only got one at the moment but will put the rest up tomorrow
  17. yehh there nice, just not very wide, look good polished tho, seen them on polo's alot
  18. dooo ittt! carrado's are amazing, you wouldent regret it!
  19. I suppose it all comes down to what you want, if you want something that’s going sound really nice and have a bit of a cheeky power gain with it, id keep an eye on the forsale section of this forum, get yourself a second hand BMC and buy yourself a decent s/s exhaust system.
  20. yes, you can by aftermarket ones that are a direct replacment and just inprove the flow of air
  21. yeh thats what i run and in my opinion its the best! its not 6 exhausts its just divided the branches of the manifold into 6 individual pipes rather then the normal set up, if your car came with a cat you will need one for MOT, there was a discussion on it a little while ago, the de-cat pipe is a section of pipe that replaces your cat, so for MOT you would have to put your cat back in, so it will make a part of your exhaust strait through, again the power gains arnt amazing but it does sound nice
  22. 6 branch manifold, http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NEW-HIGH-PERFORMANCE-SST-MANIFOLD-VW-GOLF-VR6-2-8-2-9_W0QQitemZ360102798019QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item53d7cca2c3&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14 a decent one of those, de-cat, that would sound lovley!
