  1. I'm gonna sound dumb now.......where is the waterpump?
  2. Where is the thermostat on a 9A engine? Is it easy to replace? Don't need to yet but am interested for future reference. Ta DB
  3. I recently fitted plain ZImmerman discs from GSF £21.50 +vat. Seem ok, but then again haven't had em on long or gave em any hammer.
  4. Yesterday walking through Scarborough town centre about 3pm...............Blackberry VR reg LxxxUMA I think. Couldn't get my camera out quick enough.
  5. It was her car.... a rare one too... black 2.0 8v with no sunroof, manual windows on an L plate.... Sheesh, I need to get out more! :roll: :oops: :lol: ahhhh but IIRC the 8 valve C wasn't for sale til autumn/winter 94......so M-plate.....and ALL 8valvers had E/W as standard :wink: ......guess who needs to get out more than you :?: :roll: :wink: It was actually an M plate cus I took a picture of it............now who needs to get out more :lol: :lol:
  6. When I had mine set to full soft the ride was ok but the handling wasn't too good. It's at 1.5 front and .75 rear and handles loads better but ride is very firm.
  7. They've just mentioned a Black VW.................it's getting exciting :lol: :lol: :lol:
  8. You'll soon know if you buy em. I bought my extended bolts from http://www.trackstore.co.uk.
  9. I've just stuck a tape in the machine.
  10. My old 16v bolts are the radius type and the OZ are 60 deg taper so no is the answer. Edit - Unless some OZ wheels have the same seat type.
  11. From where? Microtechnics MTEC House 1 Kensington Road Forest Lea Coalville Leicestershire LE67 4PG Installed Feb 2003
  12. Yes my insurance wanted Cat 2 Immob too so no they are not an effing insurance company. £99 BTW
  13. oh just forgot, the delivery I think was 48hrs.
  14. Don't believe em. I priced alloys and tyres to Scotland from Nottingham, wheel and tyre weight was 15kg each for 15" x 6" and the cost was £48 with Parcelforce. If you look on their website you'll find a phone number for customer services or something, then just follow the dreaded answering service. Dave
  15. Did it on my 16v and I didn't notice any lack in bottom end, it improved responsiveness very slightly and not much louder.
  16. If it's the same as the 16v it should pull out towards the front of the car but I didn't know that when I removed mine and continued to break one of the tabs underneath. If you break something when removing it you'll say 'so that's how it comes out', bit late now you've bust it :roll:
  17. I downsized to 16" from 17", much better now.
  18. What size is the Allen key? Doing mine soon so need to know. Ta D
  19. Ah yes, keep forgetting about C&R. Ta Kev
  20. Where can we buy Redline MT90? I wanna do mine soon. Cheers edit, just seen it at Demon Tweeks £12.65
  21. Not just the CAT, inlet cam is milder.
  22. I'll try all the above....cheers
