VAG-hag

great thread!! :lol: there used to be a VR in the VW cup... is that no more?? Silver IIRC & was a storm :D

cheers for all info :wave: sorry for the hijack Ray Hows the build Jonny?? still need my stickers off you but im 2500 miles away ATM :(

im pretty sure mine has no key either and i bought it. there is the "smart pad" or whatever they call it on the dash, do you have a 2 button pad in your car Ray??

I was thinking of something similar last night. I will need to detatch battery for mine as my new storage place has no power :( The alarm is a Clifford C500 does anyone know if it is going to go nuts when i remove the battery?? also when it goes crazy & locks doors etc on reconnection is it possible to shut it up with the key fobs ie dissarm it? Ive had no end of problems with the scorpion VAG alarm so was hoping the Clifford would be more serviceable :? cheers :D

Great news!! fingers crossed!! :D

somebody had to!! :lol:

was just going to say that!! :lol:

No worries pal :D They plugged into the diagnostics port but also directly into the ECU. If I was you Id ask around mate as I am no expert!! Im sure that to work on yours is easier than changing internal looms..... If you are looking for a set of 263s then keep your eyes peeled on here or do a wanted thread as the last wanted thread brought a few sets out of sheds and garages up & down the country. Also before getting it mapped you are better off collecting all goodies first & having the Map done when all are in place :D So a MKII VR?? :worthless: :lol: :lol:

Some light reading for you bud: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=76932&hilit=+263 viewtopic.php?f=11&t=70247&hilit=+263 viewtopic.php?f=25&t=71062&hilit=263&start=285 :D

sweet mate. I miss the green hills of Sheff big time!! Im in middle east ATM..... I got my cams installed & car mapped at Stealth. ill look for some previous links with power curves etc for you. The map is simply to suit the cams..... not sure that a map without any mods would have much effect as you say bud :D

SP 263 Cams + a suitable map mate. I got 221bhp from an otherwise std VR :D

very true!!

looks very nice 8) Black wheels FTW!! :clap:

you got all your paperwork from your purchase?? Im sure the info you need is all on there. Yes your car will go back to original plate mate unless this has been taken from DVLA DB for some reason in which case they will issue an alternative. IIRC the cost to exchange is SIRO £80 Hope this helps :D

you guys crack me up!! love the garage story!! :lol: saw my 1st Arabian rado last week BTW mint G60 in red 8) I had the envy big time. :wave:

:shock: Karl!! Would be fun but im sure you would regret selling the C mate......

sounds a bit more drastic than that TBH - filling the street??

Sad news mate, sorry to hear :( Good luck with the move, garage sounds ace :D

:clap: :clap: much better. looks belting now. whats next mate?

Yeah but at least with the Storm gearbox you gain an extra 2mph in reverse. how could I forget?? silly me!

"Head restraints" ooohhhh "Spoiler with aerodynamic control" aaahhhhh :lol: :lol: Wish mine had a Karman gear box not the shoddy Storm kind :(

Many congratulations mate! :clap: :clap:

cant fault you mate thats a nice lil bonus to get with ur C :D

Agreed!! Great thread & some top skills.... It looks top draw on the BBSs mate... what colour/ finish do you have the centres? Also are the rims polished (with or without laquor?) or diamond cut? Philmo they are RKIIs 8) Love the manifold too :clap: :clap: :clap:

there are single use clips on the back mate. not the best design in the world. Best bet is to source a new one or be as gentle as possible when removing it so not to break any of the little 'pegs' on the back of it. Then use these to fashion your own way to fix it back on. May not seem clear but you will see what i mean when you have a look :)
