blooming british gp is on the same day why are all the things i want to do an the same damn days! good luck up the strip paul looked and sounded great at gti fest not t o mention on the video. what alarm have you got btw i peered in your window and it shouted at me!

thats if you prefer the vr ive got a g60 because i prefer it it wasnt cheaper than a vr it isnt worth any less the only reason id change is for a supercharged vr! i know what your saying though a 7k vr would be sweet as but a well sorted g60 is a beautiful thing!
-
paint if it needs it replace all the exterior plastics with new, rip the interior out and re sound proof every where replace every clip with new fix all those rattles with felt. nice stereo audiscape pods and sub enclosure. pic up a leather interior if you dont have one already! g werks charger rebuild, fmic, red top injectors, 1.9 conversion and a rolling road set up toothed belt kit. and water injection! bastuck exhaust nice private plate. and lastly one of those nice g60 keys! thats about five grands worth maybe a bit more and im about 2 thirds along that list car just gets better the more you do they really are a great project car!

billinjah replied to Dennis.be's topic in Drivetrain
nope as when you add grooves you increase surface area this causes greater heat loss, think fins on a heatsink! -
i think ill do mine tomorrow as well bally gave me the grommet to do it its looks so much less cluttered good choice mate!
-
do what you said spend 5k on the g60 then buy another daily driver, an a4 tdi quattro perfect for the dogs and a bit o fun too!
-
i normally get snap on and mac from the states. but machine mart are cheap for sealey and fast mail order.
-
ill give that a go then first up is to bung it in the dishwasher to get all the muck off!
-
yeah it would be nice to just have that bit out of the way then on with the polishing! its a real dilema about how to tackle it all as im going to take the alternator off and possibly the charger in which case why not get it refurbed whislt its off? ho hum descisions descisions! think i will get a new alternator as mines a bit manky or is that just stupid as it works fine?! ill see if i can tidy it up. (thinking aloud)
-
i know completely ot but what sort of money does a 1.9 conversion run to?
-

yuo they think im very sad all of my mates drive standard chavvy cars (new astras etc) or ride bike which i also do they think im very sad they laugh but i really dont care my car always smokes them its even faster than some of their bikes!! i take great pleasure in getting lifts in their cars and critisising them! also i always say i cant drive into town as my car is irreplaceable and theirs are ten a penny! who cares what they say its the passion of everyone on this forum that keeps me going and keeps me so damn keen!
-
im just thinking how much difference will it really make? i mean am i going to feel the difference? also not having a large intercooler is considered to be good to keep the pressure up. im sure a bottle full of methanol is going to keep me cooler than a fmic! i might be wrong but hey my cars a keeper i plan to mess around with it!!
