No not the top nut mate, it's the nut that sits on top of the top mount and bearing before fitting on the car (how many tops!) AJ

Alright Dave, Yep got fresh underlay and carpets are all sorted. Heater box and channels all washed out as it was full of stinking coolant! Do i use G11 or G12 filling it back up, says G11 on the cap, Ta AJ

Good work mate, much further to go? Oh BTW your wheels look pants so you'll have to sell them to me! Just in the middle of the heater matrix now, fun job!

Just about to try and start this but the weather is crap! Really dont want to do it but i'm not paying £100's in labour so guess i have to bite the bullet! Good write up mate, just scared the dash wont go back on once off!

Lovely colour, Edition 1's came in this colour, might see the colour better on a Golf? AJ

Cheers for the info, i'll pop in later if i have time and see what they say, Adam

This is my fav from when i had this car, did loads to it then stupidly sold it! Silver.jpg[/attachment:ifdhiw8j]

Hard as nails!

Oh, where can i start looking for that nut? Adam

Someone was listening in German! Ta bud Adam

Yep will be fitting new mounts and bearings too, might take you up on that offer Karl. Another pair of hands is always better, could even drive down to yours to make it easier? Heater Matrix to do first as that exploded last week while driving! AJ

Alright, over the coming few weeks i'm going to be fitting my koni coilies, couple of questions (as they are used ones) Does any one know which are the front/rear springs? 2 are about 10mm taller than the other 2, taller ones have 'Koni 2220 1245 HA' on them, shorter 2 have 'Koni 2220 1244 VA' stamped on them. Secondly am i missing some nut or something off the coilover? The strut is fully decompressed like this, S4020358.JPG[/attachment:1o3iq5gq] When i come to fit it i'll pull the strut out place the spring over it and the top cap, bearing, top mount, then its all held in place by a nut before going onto the car. Where do i get this nut from people? Thanks Adam

Excellent, thanks Jim Adam

Corrado VR6 rear dust/disc shields from the dealers? Thanks Adam

Like it! I need me a black grill badge too!

Looks awesome, take it the Rotas are 8x17's, you running standard arch's?

Good stuff lads and thanks for your time, dealers it is then!

Dark blue VR I think, jct 26 M1 last night at half 6, had a set of RS' on and it looked the nuts!

Anyone?

Are these the same company? Want to start getting bits together for a front overhaul, wishbones, track rod ends etc etc. Are these any good or is it best to go genuine/GSF on everything? Thanks Adam

Hi mate you should have done :grin: Although its not quite so great going to Matlock now its a 50 limit and everyone does 35mph :sleeping: LOL Your car looked very nice, gave you a beep dont know if you heard it Matt No didn't hear it but then again had the tunes going! Didn't know thats a 50 now, thats just criminal, people used to dawdle when it was national down there so hate to think what its like now! Adam

That will be Matt aka 'Leonard'. Ahh, looked great on the move, was tempted to leave the traffic queue and join him on the twisties!

So been reading all this and to be honest i've always liked the Wietecs Hicon GT, and have bought 3 sets previously but after reading this i'm unsure! So if i buy some coilovers what else do i need, i want to make her fresh and how it once was, so this is what i would think so please chip in if there is anything else Coilovers New wishbones Ball joints R32 Rear bushes Rear axle bushes Track rod ends Anything else at all? Thanks Adam

B3 EVL, Watchorn Roundabout about half 5ish heading out towards Oakerthorpe. Anyone on here? AJ

Well i just think what goes around comes around mate, glad you were happy with the wheel mate! AJ
