  1. Erm when i first got my C i removed my number plate and hey presto the was 2 screws,just removed them and it came off.think som1 had drilled them though cos body work wasnt in best shape under it-bits of rust around the holes. so sorted that out and colour coded the panel. What u thinking of doing Struan? Cheers Fraser

    Hi tried wat u mentioned H100 didnt have much effect,thanks anyway.had a look at CO adjustment too.there should be a screw of somesort down on top of the airbox-found where it should be but no screw to adjust-could this be the problem?where could i get the screw from? does anyone know much about this? EDDIE it would be good if u could let me know wat u think prob is. Cheers Fraser
  3. PhatVR6 if you do decide to go for the tinted IN-PROS. I would be very much interested in your red/clear ones if they were to be for sale? Cheers Fraser
  4. I picked up a Supersrint system (straight thruogh,no boxes) except back box (which is Laser)for about £80+vat from halfords,u can only order it through certain stores though.Mine is loud when booted,and gurgles fine when in idle. Cheers Fraser

    What's in a name?

    LUPO means little wolf. JETTA im sure is a wind. The BEETLE is named so somit do with one of hitlers request that things should be taken from nature to design car. ie The BEETLE has perfect streamlined body shape.But yeah its the type 1 to begin with. Cheers Fraser

    Ok,not tried it yet,but had a quick look-the red/black wire going into the coil,this also has a green wire going in on the same conection is that the one that i remove?? Eddie what do you think this could be-how du fix it? its not a major problem but the do tend to float slowly back down. Dad thinks it can be adjusted but cant remember how-Handy!!

  12. Yeah ppl always ask about the car-mostly ppl older than me.Two guys at the cash and carry were checking it out when i walked up.one guy was mad about them said he always want one. Remember not long after i got the car it was sitting outside my mates house, his granddad drove up to drop his sis off.Granddad got out his car and walked around the back to see the badge on the back of mine-dont u just love it when they dont know what it is! Cheers Fraser

    Not really a problem-slight observation. On my 1.8 16v I feel that when i give the throttle a touch the revs take a while to drop back down to around 1k.how can this be adjusted? prefer if they dropped little quicker than wat they do. Cheers Fraser

    Hey g-man if your thinking of selling.what price are you thinking of? i like those wheels too so if Dboy isnt interested i could be. Do you have any probs with rubbing?arhes rolled?how low have you dropped it-coilovers?and finally take it there 7.5x16 and 9x16. Cheers Fraser
  15. yeah replicas are around £700-£750 for 18s £650 for 17s. Cheers Fraser
  16. Looking good mate.How much were the rims if you dont mind me asking-spotted them new for around £155each. do they rub at all?? How du find the supersports? Cheers Fraser
  17. Not sure how it works but heard that if u put in claim with pics location etc,that theyve got so many days to repair it. If they dont they have to cough up dosh for new tyre/wheels etc. When i drove doen to Middlesbrough to pic up my car i noticed the roads in England were miles better (pardon the pun) than roads up here in Scottyland. Cheers Fraser
  18. Car looks 8) mate. I luv those wheels Danilo has them on his car-really suit the Cs.You getting BBS or copies?? Cheers Fraser
  19. Get yourself a heavy duty one-took one out dads Reilly-works a treat!! Cheers Fraser
  20. Had a look at removing it today-how do i do it?? Cheers Fraser
  21. no mine flash orange,if u look at them from behind there red,but from the side u get a hint of orange-so think that might have somit to do with them flashing orange. cheers Fraser
  22. Danilo's is my top C-have u seen the price of his wheels!!!think he managed to get them for 700euros though jammy bugger.along with the red one from the us with german no,plate. Cheers Fraser
  23. Yeah once mine was fitted i noticed that there was a gap at the bottom-think eveyone has it-bit it only really shows up on light/bright cars as behind the grill is dark and the contrast stands out.might get somit put in behind it to hide the lugs bit better.car looks good with it mate. cheers Fraser
  24. You and me both PValver-aslong as its sunny! and there are various types of dubs. oh and of course no NEDs!!! Scots people speak up-wheres every1 thinking of going this yr-england or europe. Cheers Fraser
  25. The small pack u get with it was rubbish. The small self tappers were too short to go through both the grill and the plastic casing for the lights. And the other screws looked too long (dont even know what the other stuff was for). So i drilled 4 holes (2 either side) through the eyebrow bit of the grill and through the plastice casing of the lights, then went to halfords and bought red cable ties-Fits perfect! I was thinking of painting the eyebrow part red and the two lower slates gloss black-but OMG all red looks so good that im not even going to bother trying to put it into words! Its amazing how a grill can change the look of a car so much. Cheers Fraser
