smiffy-g60

Anything silly like the single lead from the coil ? running on 95 ron petrol ? this has happend to me quite a few times when changin down gears.. she'll never start back up untill i have a little wiggle of the leads and smack the coil.. Its not happend in a few months so the last smack might of tought her a lesson..

Its got to be the driving posistion.. and the fact it grabs attention from all ages.. the kids think its 'sick' n the oldies just admire.. :D

to fast or to slow kemp ? hahaa...

c'mon then guys there seems to be a few of us nocking about... ill put kempy forward as the s.wales corrado meet organiser hahaaa cant beet a spirited drive through usk lanes... even if im not runnin a charger

newport boy here !!! Give us a toot if you see me about :D

Abit like this :tongue:

Arnt Rs 301's 4x100 more desirable than say a porsche fitment ? Could you have not sold those on for a few quid bought some porsche Rs's with a higher offset and used addaptors ? Have i missed somthing or have you just lost a grand by redrilling them ?

Be nice its my first post in this thread :D Right then guys the time has come and im finnaly going to ditch my g60 and turn to a nice 16vt setup :clap: The car is now officialy off the road awaiting a new motor. Since the cars of the road im going to have a few more pennies to throw at it over the next year or so. and thats where you lot come in, I need a List lol !! My aim is a reliable 300bhp+ Now i havnt got money to throw around willynilly but ide like to spend money in the right areas and save in others. Basics, What engine: Can i use my g60 bottom end with a 16v head ? If so what head would you go for ?? : Or should i use a complete 2.0 16v along with forged pistons ect.. Kr or ABF ?? Big money bits: Turbo: Gt28rs ? Pistons: I dont want no spacer gaskets here lol Manifold: Now ive read your little debate around the 1.8t manifold, however im always on a buget so will this reliably take 300bhp. Management: could i save money here and stick with the g60 managment ? Now i know theres a lot more than that but i need to get the ball rolling otherwise itll never get started, im planning on taking the G-lader off the car next month to raise some funds to get me started. Theres shed loads ive missed but this is the start of the long journey ahead of me. If somebody feels the need to tell me exaclty what to buy to turn my g60 into a 16vt monster then go ahead :grin: :grin:

lol it wernt all that negative, :) i was just going by the 6k stealth charge for the r32 conversion in a mk3 golf.

dont think youll do the r32 or 2.0tfsi for 3K guys, have a look here for sorting the valver http://www.tsr-performance.com/pages/index.asp

Cheers mate :D Im guna mess around with the stance today, see if i can get it any lower i use a cone filter but that is soon all to change. im looking a nice little intercooler that should fit behind the grill so the pipe work will be a lot better. ill be losing the cone filter and going to a drilled air box.. I need to get a vid ill try to sort something out lol

Cheers john its the best rolling shot ive got, (only got 2 anyway) :lol: the sound may be changing, im debating getting a decat but worried about back pressure and all that. Ill have to have a word with lisa about it. Nice one fella, i do like those modern lines ive decided there going on the other halfs golf when she gets rid of her pug :cuckoo:
