As requested by a couple of peeps, see here for exhaust sound - http://s531.photobucket.com/albums/dd354/davesb/M97GPB/?action=view&current=20120408_1725021.mp4

Already sorted but thanks anyway.

Yes it will fit all models. Will reply to PM shortly.

OK no probs.

Yes, drop me a PM.

Don't know what the difference is but I'll drop you a PM with my email address, send me some pics if you can and I'll have a look. ---------- Post added at 8:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 8:14 AM ---------- PM's sent to interested peeps.

Thanks for the comments guys, I'm really happy with the car and it will only get better, I've got more stuff to do in time for Stanford. Gonna pop out today for some Mcgard locking bolts. Kip, was planning to go but other things have stepped in the way so unlikely to be going. Redfox, I've only been out in it once since the BBS have been on, no scraping anywhere but I only have a mild drop. I've got a video clip of the exhaust but want to do it again as you can hear some engine noise too, I was stood in the wrong place.

Time for an update............ BBS rims have replaced the Speedlines, they are 16x7.5" BBS RC's with 215/40 tyres. They are in really good nick apart from a few minor blemishes, the centre caps sadly were not. After hours of polishing they've come up reasonably ok, I would have liked better but I'd still be at it at Christmas if I was looking for perfection which I usually am but not on this occasion. When I collected them I was surprised how lightweight they were and the ride quality is as good as the Speedlines so really happy about that. I need to sort out the ride height as it's a tad too high, something for later me thinks. Anyway just a few pics for you to drool over.

You can use a late handle on an early car and visa-versa.

PM sent.

I think you'll have to change the whole handle, if you can get a pic when you get the car back that will help.

Doesn't sound good if there is a metal piece broken off the handle, can you post a pic?

Hi, drop me a PM if interested in a repair kit. Thanks Gaz! Dave

I'll take em, PM me payment details.

Interested in the rear lights, any water ingress and any damage? They look smoked? Thanks

Ok, I await your PM.

15" Speedlines off my VR in great condition with no Curbing. Remaining tread to wear marker - 3.5mm 3mm 2mm 2mm The paint finish is a slightly darker shade compared to standard. £150 collected from M1 J25 area.

New rims......

Yes they fit the 16v and are available now.

A friend knows a driver at a local depot, he told him they are striking for 3 weeks starting at Easter.

The loom from the large round connector to injectors etc is different on the OBD2, the only difference is the throttle body connection.

If it's any help, I lost the love for my VR when it was my daily, it's not the daily now and the love has been restored.

The piston to chamber clearance is not critical, there is a small amount of clearance between the two, it's the rubber seal that does all the work, I would say it's ok but make sure you wash out the blast media thoroughly.

I thought that might be the case lol.

1.5mm pitch NOT 2.5
