Who's all going? Ive just booked up tonight and should be coming down with a few folk. Probably my only venture down south this year.

There is also the Gemini 6 speed kit but you would need to do a lot of miles to get your money back on that. Lower FD as well but then it affects all gears.

Will be worth it. Could you find out the exact clutch that they are fitting please.

Whats the weight difference between the carbon and fibreglass version?

Yeah the reflective tape works very well. I have a heat sheild over the turbo and not a jacket anymore. With this and the tape the bonnet is ok. In fact the area above the rocker cover gets a lot hotter than above the turbo. I need to replace some of the bits under my bonnet and I am thinking of using this stuff - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HEAT-BARRIER-REFLECTIVE-GOLD-TAPE-1-5-x-15ft-010394-/170621250376?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item27b9d1ab48 These folk are where I got most of my heat tape, exhuast wrap etc and they are very quick at delivering. You get a nice packet of Haribo sweets as well with every order which I still cant figure out why.

See I think the B7 looks too plain at the front, the rounder front lights make it look less agressive. Its a brilliant tool, not the greatest on fuel but it just feels solid. Really do need a set of pipes though. Few little issues to sort out on it though.

Well not been doing too much on the car, just out for a hoon last week with some cool cars. It was bloody good fun. Good to meet Nadeeme (Dr Forinor) as well. Sold my Mk5 this week and picked up a new toy on Friday, its ace!!! Only about 5mpg less than the Golf but about 140bhp more.

Have to admit they do look better now. A lot more subtle.

Fair play to you. Hope all goes well. If I did that trio that would pretty much be my mileage up for the year.

Tried to put a wink smiley on that post but my smilies arent working for some reason. It just reminded me of a bloke I used to know who would do a 10mile round trip to a garage in another town as it was a couple of pence cheaper fuel. Oh and how do you get the smilies back on?

So you have to spend £50 to save £3. You'll probably end up spending £3 extra driving to the other supermarket as it has cheap fuel.

Id agree with the £3.5 - 4k.

Looks like you have it all planned out. Will be intersting to watch. Im still not sure on a diesel Corrado though.

Always good to get theses things done and out the way. I wouldnt mind a gander at it. [email protected]

If you can drop the oil and sump and see whats in it. Did the oil pressure buzzer go on at all?

They looked quite good. Id try some centre caps on the centre hole just to finish them off.

Agree.

Right oh, had the MOT done on Sat. The CO2 levels were a high but the A/F gauge reading seems fine and they were fine on the dyno end of last year. Only thing Ive done since then is add the CAT into the exhaust. Not checked the plugs yet but last time I did they were fine. Any other possible reasons for the high CO2 levels other than rich fuel mixture?

I can see why your annoyed but after driving the car for a couple of hundred miles and it will just get stone chipped as bad. Its going to happen at some point.

Eh, no comment.

Haha, nah. Car passed its MOT today but only thanks to a nice friendly tester. I'll not elaborate but C02 levels were a tad high. Was out testing an S4 today. Lovely piece of kit and what a great noise as standard. Im totally sold on them. Ive already budgeted for some exhausts after hearing this

Ive only really washed the red half a dozen times since in a year but it doesnt really get that dirty. Have to admit that its just a wash and thats it. Polished maybe twice. The red does look good when polished though. Might just do it tomorrow for pre-MOT.

Good man, Dave knows his stuff.
