  1. not for me Im safely at my desk - will pass it on Yash thanks :) VR6, you joker ;)
  2. can anyone tell me how to get the wing mirror off? ta -pablo
  3. hmmm i think i have recaros :) nice one :D
  4. i can do one in 2 steps: 1. find an R32 lump and running gear 2. hand it and loads of cash to someone to install. step 3 is optional: 3. get car removed from first hedge you came to :D
  5. i think to be fair the door pods arent the place. mine were buried as far away as poss in the kickwells to expend the path lengths as much as possible. and i didnt use TA either ;) for the price of some blutak tho ;)
  6. on my rainbow 3way install i had the 6.5s in the doors, the 4s and 1s in little fibreglass kickpods. the sound was unreal. bar a little lacking on the far pass side it was perfect. scored real high on iasca sq test too :) it sounds silly to put the tweets down there but you really CANT tell.
  7. the pods are big enough man ;) making premade housings kinda defeats the purpose too - aiming is the name of the game with tweeters.
  8. you prob know this already but kenlowe make slimline fans. I know the rover lads used to use them when fitting fatter intercoolers. looks swell btw :D
  9. mne broke so I drilled a hole in the metal bracket and did some bending and its better than before :)
  10. if need needs any pointers tell him to try this: http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=1264409 was reading it there and looks OK like.
  11. aye mate :) how much did agnews want for the timing job? Was reading a DIY on it and it looks doable alright. depends how much of a balls getting the box off is tho.
  12. and minis - white of course :)
  13. 80 mile round trip home yesterday and got 35mpg on the MFA :) drove like a total sissy mind but nice to see the raddo can give some approxomation of economy :) mixture of Mway A and B roads -pablo
  14. touch choice man ;) cloth or heated recaros? HMMMMMM!!!!!! :evil:
  15. mod it then change it back to sell. stuff like suspension, exhaust, filter, wheels etc are all easily swapped back.
  16. lol indeed :) i had an induction kit in the engine bay before and defo would recommend the carbonio over that setup as the air is 100% cool down there whereas an inbay filter is just gonna suck hot engine bay air. plus it looks really nice ;) not that Im biased of course
  17. seen the K badge on a black E30 bmw with turbo conversion.
  18. is the colour seat kiwi? badge looks wrong again the C badge but would look good on its own.
  19. the cupra is a better looking car IMO but just lacks 4wd :(
  20. id go S3 (and plan to next yr) mates mum had a tt and it wasnt actually that fast. great grip off the line tho with the 4wd! depends what you want.
  21. hmmm yes and no. the kickwells are good as they give the most distance from your ears to equalise the path lengths. you would think that this would have all the sound coming from the floor but actually can give a really nice stage. having them on the dash brings them closer to your ears thus emphasising the shorter path to the right tweeter. but its easier to get a wide flat stage. in short there is no RIGHT place to put them. when doing an install its common practice to stick the tweeters on long cable and blutak to move them around a lot before making a decision. personally id whack them in the OE position - easiest all round :)
  22. filter changed a few k ago so no issues there. seats are back up so Ill see how it goes :) thanks guys.
  23. is it a bad sign? bear in mind i had the rear seats down.
