  6. Need to update this as a few things have changed Firstly the brakes have now bedded in and i must say they are pretty damn good , they reall dig in when there hot So for anyone wanting good stoppers these really are quality Changed the wiper bladed the other day and had a nice suprise to find that a previouse owner had upgraded to lupo wipers so that saved me some cash on having to do them in the future My loom turned up from reyneautomotive , super bice chaps and the loom looks real nicely made and a good price too Then i went and picked these up from vw And then friday / saturday i fitted the shrick i won on ebay of beasty , top bloke and very helpfull i couldnt of asked to buy it of a better bloke , it came with spare gaskets , fitting instrucions and all pipe work and its only got about 2000 miles on it Really happy with it i have to say , and i finally conquered my electrical fears as my mechanic couldnt make it to my house so i had to do it , all went well and the car really pulls now im looking forward to stealth now to see what its making Iv also do e the gearbox mound wich was absolutely shafted , gear change is miles better now no more ragging it in to second anymore :)

  12. Maybe we could record all the power figures from the rolling road and have them wrote up with a few good pics of all the cars and and who made what , i kind of have to agree that with out me ever having wrote anything or putting anything "in" i cant really complain that its not up to scratch Id like to do more my self but as you might have noticed my grammer is nothing flash so putting stuff together is something i usually avoid
