  1. :lol: DOH didnt realise what i'd typed HA! Being able to purchase the fasteners is a right kafuffle in itself ;)
  2. Yeah I will be drilling out the washers. I just need to get hold of the nuts :lol: which is a pain in itself.
  3. No not yet mate, tried to get down after work last night but the place closes at 4:30 on a Friday. Not open again until Monday now, so going to try get down there after work on monday. But am looking for other similar places that are open on a weekend.
  4. Nice one Vag, being trying to get these for too long. 2CM- The problem was i bought them second hand from here, from Steve@. Who in turn bought them from someone else. The person Steve got them off didnt sell the nuts with the shocks, well not all 6 anyway. I have one nut eachside.
  5. Is this the place Vag http://www.bappbarnsley.co.uk/ How lucky is that, theres a Bapp 2 doors down from the VAG Specialist i go to in Castleford :D You say i can just walk in i.e. they deal direnctly with the public?
  6. Right, after getting in touch with Koni UK, they told me Larkspeed who were down the road from me could order them for me. However, Koni UK dont have them in stock (strange) and are apparently having to order these top mount nuts from Koni NL who then will send them onto Koni UK and then onto Larkspeed (farce). 2-3 weeks after going to speak to Larkspeed and being told the above, I was told that they havent come in yet and he 'asssumes they've been ordered' - he was the one on the phone to Koni UK who were suppose to order them. Anyway, Im not holding my breath that they have ordered them. Is there anywhere else I can get to order them, do g-werks supply Koni suspension, and if not could they get hold of some for me anyway? Or does anyone happen to have some laying around they no longer need. Its the thread that is the problem, i can get the right diameter nut just not a fine enough thread. :( Cheers Gaz
  7. NOt sure if the valver exhaust will be ok on the VR mate, i cant help there. But I do have a VR6 OEM exhaust for sale if you end up wanting one. I have from the CAT back if you're interested at all.
  8. Need to check the links mate, they dont work.
  9. Yes the gld plated springs are a complete waste of money and slightly tacky imo. As for the hottuning coilies, they sound alot like how the V-Maxx coilovers act, very bouncy even on relatively small dips and bumps.
  10. Seen as we're on the subject of new springs. Check out these - http://www.europerformance.co.uk/pages/ ... category=1 Im not sure why you'd want them on your car, especially the abuse springs get.
  11. Cant see it mattering that much. But im pretty sure the nut with the washer was on top. when i took my suspension apart. The silver nut in the pic which is the self locking nut isnt it, so should go on last (top)
  12. Hard to tell with it being on a slat anyway. Could you get a pic of it on a flatter surface?
  13. A roll without the mcd's trays - http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ba6MqijVtPQ&NR=1 Kid on roof came close to death
  14. It wasnt like that before :lol: EDIT - cant see line under link on MY computer, but can from a work one ???
  15. Yes, i'll have a set for sale v.soon. I dont know if its cos they're cheap coilovers or whether its that i dont like the feel of coilovers. But i found the ride too hard for the roads where i am.
  16. With you there VAG. Phaetons are 'Pheeeeooooorrrr!' Rather own one over a merc or a beemer.
  17. You should have got a cone shaped piece ontop of the coilies, in which case the top mount goes straight on top of that.
  18. Chris i believe that is the correct order mate. :) EDIT - correction the larger nut should go on first and the one with the shoulder last.
  19. Had full supersprint system on my old G60 including de-cat pipe and you couldnt tell it had been changed from standard. It was quiet as...
  20. Got a dremel already, however a box of attachments for that price cant be missed :D Nice one Craigowl!
  21. What car? If its a VR i have the whole centre box (suitcase size) also comes with back box as they're still as one. Good condition £50
