  1. Thanks Simeon it's finally coming together after hours of work. Fingers crossed it runs lol
  2. its finally in. went in easier than i thought it would too which is a bonus:dance: [ATTACH=CONFIG]83575[/ATTACH]
  3. Thanks guys. Engine going in tomorrow, wish me luck that I don't scratch anything lol
  4. injectors have been refurbed so fited them along with manifold and finished off pulleys and covers. also made up an additional heat guard to make sure the exhaust doesnt melt the steering gator engine is finally ready to go in sunday :grin: [ATTACH=CONFIG]83559[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]83560[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]83561[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]83562[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]83563[/ATTACH]
  5. ive only ever done it when the gearbox is off so made a locking tool that attaches to the flywheel. your idea with holding the crank bolt may work but ive not tryed.( make sure it doesnt undo the crank bolt i believe it could in theory) would putting the car in gear work, foot on brakes if its in the air/no wheels on?
  6. what intercooler is that? is it a wagner tuning one? if so have you gone for the rallye or golf g60 one? ive read the rallye one only fits if you modify/cut off the tow eye bracket, ide be interested in your findings
  7. i had to renew brakelines when i done mine. they wouldnt come out of compensator
  8. thanks. it doesnt really show in the photos but i had powdercoated all the parts that can be a textuerd flat black. all the other parts i have sprayed using VHT Flat black engine enamel. it has taken me ages prepping and spraying it all LOL
  9. fitting the outlet eliminates the original black box which is prone to leaks and not available any more i believe. also with the outlet you can hear the supercharger more as the original acts as a silencer.
  10. im getting closer now... ill let the pictures do the talking [ATTACH=CONFIG]83430[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]83431[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]83432[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]83433[/ATTACH]
  11. the only difference between early and late 16v/G60 beam are the handbrake cable clips. they are different design one pushes on, one slides on. i found out when fitting a late 16v to an early g60
  12. ive used long nose pliers when i got a flat tyre with no key successfully
  13. sorry anna i seem to have misplaced my old one at the moment. my dad has been moving all my stuff about in our garage so god knows where hes put it. hopefully lilfuzzer can help you.
  14. i havnt used them but http://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/gladen-motorsport i have and would recommend. what you looking to buy?
  15. hi anna i can send you my one again if you like?
  16. when my pedal done this it was the hose between the reservoir and clutch master. it had perished and was letting air in to the system. its worth checking anyway if the clutch slave is leaking you would see fluid coming out of the inspection cover on the gearbox ( well mine did anyway) are you loosing fluid?
  17. usually blue or blue /white on most headunits is what i have used before
  18. that was a quick reply, thanks ill get my greens tested and put them in then. thanks again ps loving the progress on your car:thumbleft:
