  1. I read that too and thought WTF! He can always pass me Rahimas number if he wantsb :)
  2. To be honest it aint worth the time or effect even trying when a new solid mount can be brought from Euro Car Parts for next to nothing.
  3. Is this problem also apparent on the G60s or is it just the knock sensor that makes the car run bad?
  4. Like the front arches, apart from that they shuold stick to a saxo or something :D
  5. saw M2VRG on the M1 stuck in traffic, i was in a new smart forfour probably why i got no response.....but whoevers it is he needs to cheer up!
  6. Make that 4 and a half campaigns :D
  7. No matter what engine the Leon R has got it wont be as desirable as a R32 in the future, look at the cordoba thingy vs mk3 golf
  8. R32 too in blue and black leathers :) would change the crappy stock rims tho
  9. Is this query particular to 17x9 or 9 inch wheels in general? as you know Alex im running 16x9 with 215 stretched to fit. I had alot of rubbing on the rear arches and the tyres have been getting grated, i got extreme to roll the lip back in may and that has reduced the rubbing but not stopped it. Also there is a build up of rust because of lip being folded back. So now im getting the arch pushed out with a tool which rolls back and fourth along the wheel arch (similar to the one in the golf magazine DIY section) and get the remainder of the lip grinded off, then seal the inside with underbody sealer to see off the rust.
  10. Had some jumped up little kid trying to egg me on in a riced up astra 2.0 16v on my way to canterbury but i couldn't be bothered! The pulsar gtir has the aero-dynamics of a brick! I had a race (looked modified) with one in my rover coupe turbo (chipped and exhaust) and up to 70 he was kinda quick after that it bye bye mate!
  11. nice, now how bout some pictures of the owner! reminds me of mine before i got my hands on it :) is it metallic black?

    vw wheels

    i think all the earlier ones had 4/100 like polo golf 2 golf 3 exc gti vr6 corrado exc vr6 passat up to 95 scirocco vento same as mk3 You could look at Rovers 200/400 series, honda civics/crx, renault, most jap cars, vauxhalls, fords and peugeot had 4/108
  13. I was thinking of cutting the bolt or drilling it but didnt want to blow myself up lol!
  14. Yes it is, there a crosshead screw that is at the top of the filter is this cant be undone then the whole bracket can come off...2x 17mm nuts. The clips on mine were non reuseable so if may be worth buying some jublee clips to prevent urself geting caught out.
  15. Just a quick tip before you attempt to replace the fuel filter, soak the screw in Plus Gas for a day, its very likely that the screw is rusty and will round off and it will be better to replace it with a bolt. I did mine on sunday and there is no way that screw would undo so i had to take the clip off which goes around the fuel filter and have held it on with cable ties untill the new clip comes through
  16. I personally wouldn't recommend drilling the rear disks you might weaken the structure, but then again theres not alot of pressure on them. Are you thinking of drilling them urself or a machining company to do them
  17. Finally got round to doing this job yesturday, The discs went on no probs but the caliper wasnt fitting when both new pards were fitted. I winded the caliper all the way back on both sides but it seemed impossible, so i had to re-use one old pad untill i get this sorted. I bought rear brembo discs and pagid pads can anyone confirm the part numbers for these?
  18. So whats so special about this one? is it covered in leather or beige carpet?
  19. Welcome mate, hope you got deep pockets!
  20. What about recaro bolsters, where are they available from?
  21. Furkhi would know all about this one :)
