page 2 and i cant contain myself

[/quote:6d9e3] LOL - this made my evening having a read of this. can understand the pain of the loss at a 'freak' accident. can strangely also relate to his point regarding the seatbelt - not saying i condone it - but can appreciate why he said what he said. i was in a crash with a friend driving - was in the back seat and had i of been wearing my belt at the time I'd most certainly not be here typing today. but....i wasn't the driver nor controlling the wheel or speed. still... what an attitude!!!

yeah it will. gwerks keep half the boost return piping now and run it off at a filter. keeps the noise down by half apparently.

i'll leave the sealant - you dont want some of it getting in the charger

i'm sure billinjah has made his own headlining - maybe drop him a pm to confirm

what happened to your engine mate - i can remember speaking to you about it sometime ago

truly makes you wonder what the world is coming to. frightening really... i was chatting to a guy who works for the navy over xmas - he told me that once they accidentally dropped 90tonnes of fuel (cant remember which) into the atlantic. and they're worrying about particles in the air... its ridiculous

great for carrying bikes though!

nice one. let us know how you get on :)

cheers - is there any particular increase in performance? to hold it in place you could maybe use metal ties tying the hosing and the brake duct together

theres a few different ways so best to just take off the bumper like you say and have a look. taking off the bumper will only take 5 mins

nice. how did you find the cold air feed after fitting? and how did you wire in the neon light? i hate the poor boot light thats std.

my head gasket set has 8 of the injector seals in - etka confirms there are 8 as well. hope that helps

where did you get that diagram? dont forget your cam belt tensioner. are the beru leads decent - just got crappy halfords ones at the moment

and youll have to replace the head bolts. not sure about the injector seals - i'll check tonight as i have the kit at home.

camshaft gasket is included within the head gasket set. g-werks sells the elring gasket set and head bolts with washers at a very reasonable price (just got them myself as changing head shortly) - far cheaper than vag. get a new tensioner with the cam belt. Apart from your fluids thats about it as far as i know. Being anal as I am i've got new manifold studs, nuts, cam shaft bolt and washer etc - just new fixings really.

quality stuff

3rd 80, 4th 110

what i thought - but maybe with a dish - not sure. first time i've really been taken by them though.

well thats true. more importantly - what are the wheels on the picture above?

what about when you go abroad and you have the reverse? sure it'd be easier leaving it alone!

cool - will use this alongside the tape for now then.

i've used some decent gaffer tape and it seems to do the job. spent a good while neatly taping it on. not sure what tank tape is - assuming tape with extra strong adhesive?

:) cool. think i'll get 2 exra screws for the rev gauge face too. cheers guys

^^ agreed cheers guys i'll give that a look. i did notice when i put the rpm gauge back on - there were only 2 screws - whereas there are 4 available spaces to use them. anyone notice this?
