  1. got mine - merry crimbles!!
  2. i should go & see the Dr mate, young man like you should be up about 6 times a day & thats without trying
  3. instead of replacing rear hose just rag it all off man!!
  4. get the new addition to the family up too man! great looking car man, love this colour & the wheels are spot on 8) :notworthy:
  5. still a nice looking car now. loving the new one in white too, one parked up @ our local meet today. nice
  6. some wheels are more accomadating than others mate, just the way it is really. The main concern is the distance between caliper & spoke, this can be got round with spacers though. If you are sticking with the speedlines then 288s are the way to go.
  7. Nice one man!! :clap: Cant be doing with these lil scumbags either :mad2: :bad-words:
  8. Standard 16 or 15s mate? If its the speedies you have they will be 15 & if you want to keep em then go for the 288mm uprgade off a late Golf VR. If you do a quick search on here there are plenty of threads on the subject & plenty of people have gone for this mod. Hope this helps a little......
  9. Cheers Karl, Gone right up my own arse with some of the sexy ass calipers on offer on ebay though!! Magpie Morris they should call me!! Its all accademic @ the mo cos im awaiting some cashmonies..... Should have bought yours when i had the chance.......
  10. either way itll be better thn the pod experience we had. good times but man that was cold!! you bought your tickets Mark?? Ive seen that they are on sale now but after the monster w/e i had in London + bloddy crimbo I have no money - booo poor me. Will get on it tho man....
  11. get in mate! Nice. Those wheels suit the C nicely too
  12. Thanks Gents, I have seen those Fiat ones go for silly cheap on ebay - will keep that in mind Mr Typhoon 8) KIP Been looking for SEAT Brembo stuff for a while (even keep telling my mate im going to pinch his) but I think there is a big 'scene tax' on them now.... even the carriers from SEAT are bloomin expensive!! :eek: :brickwall: so..... I have been asking round a few folk at home & have been pointed in the direction of a guy who will make me some brakets to suit what I want... Ill go for the Seat/ VW 323x28mm disks (like the look of the EBC ones) & just keep my eyes peeled for some tasty looking calipers. Do all Brembo calipers have Brembo part numbers on them? ie if off a Ford will they still have Brembo part numbers? If this is the case then I can always check that they will be suitable for my disks beforehand nomatter what car they come off.... You using 323x28 with your rather stunning calipers?? I have done a little reading on brake lines etc & im sure I can get them made up when I eventually have the right Calipers. Spacers like you say Ill know when its time to know :D I was hopig to avoid but :shrug: Again thanks very much for the :help: chaps :notworthy:
  13. nice one me old - may have to actually have a look uder my car :ignore:
  14. Hi mate, So sorry to drag this subject up again. Still not done my breaks :ignore: & after a few loops round the ring this year & a few more planned next year i really think i should sort them!! From what you were saying I can use audi or seat carriers. these from the Leon C R? & which Audi? S3 maybe? Im thinking 323mmm disks that i think are Seat again...... thanks again & again sorry for the delay. Saw your stoppers btw. nice - did you ever have any rubbing?? cheers :wave:
  15. She has had plenty of TLC there. Nice looking C too.... BTW how do you adjust the rear ARB & whats the advantage of TT wipers over Lupos?? Cheers man, C

  17. ^^^^ me too Jim you are a genius man. Just got lots of funny looks in the office but still has to be said!
  18. ^^^^ further comments to add to above. This happened on my 1st C but because i had the override key I to master reset the VW (scorpion) alarm. This was done by leaving it disconnected for a while & there is a set of instructions to follow in sequence - ie open door, turn on ignition, open other door etc etc. These notes from memory are included in the alarm docs... im sure someone on here will have a copy. I dont as they went with the car. Not so good news with current C but was an excuse to upgrade anyway.... hope this helps & im not babbling too much.
  19. good work man. a couple of 3" pipes would look spot on. bit R32 like
  20. oh my!! even bounty kitchen roll cant keep up with the drool.....
  21. before & afters.... kit I used was H&R RSS Clubsports. Could go lower but i like how it handles now so dont want to spoil that :D
