  1. Mine are ok , no leaks , finish is good + they line up ! Not bad for " crap / tacky / rubbish / pants " inpro's
  2. Have you been stood too near my car ??
  3. Been onto vibra-technics today , they say the mount should only move 3-4mm on harsh take-off , thats for a fast road version . I stripped the one i have got today and it's been bodged , i dont even think its a vibra-technics bush that has been fitted into the alloy casting !! . Bit pi$$ed off cause i polished the mounting up before i put it on , going on the understanding that it was in perfect working order , never mind , so im gonna send off for a new fast road bush at £59 and it will be as new and still saving £61 . I have fitted a new mounting to the back of the engine , gearbox and the front one is only a couple of months old , but all the movement seems to be coming from the front mount . I am having problems with the engine touching the under side of the bonnet with it been a 2.0 block and the exhauste keeps cracking then blowing on the first box off the down pipe , hopefully the new front mount will stop the movement causing these problems . :mad:
  4. I have got hold of a vibra-technics front engine mount , fitted it and the problem i am having is there is still alot of lift from the front of the engine , at least an inch if not more , has enyone got one fitted and is this normal . I thought these engine mount were supposed to give next to no movement , i may be wrong :? can anyone help .
  5. Where did you get the front lights from / are they kit form and what comes with them + how much ? They look well , im gonna have to get me some of those !!
  6. http://www.dazzle.com/products/dvc80.html , this is what you need , i have one and it works spot on .
  7. The mag's just come out if anyone's interested ... :!:
  8. Camping from 6pm Saturday. Racing starts at 10am sunday its £9 to get in & £15 pounds to race .
  9. Think this is the one your looking for :- http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... 2422606856 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... 2422561335
  10. That's why it was'nt put where the heater vents are , cause when followed by the federalli hood they would see it . Put it lower down - they dont see it :lol:
  11. Here you are Rams . get shut of your ash tray + fag lighter !!
  12. Here's the latest mod , TV in the dash + DVD/VCD/Mp3 player . Took some mod'in but this was the only place to put it !
  13. The timing marks on the gearbox are hard to get into with a strobe , but the marks are easier to see on the pully end , mark on the gearbox = mark on the timing belt cover , mark on the flywheel = mark on the pully . Here's some data for you .
  14. Sorry i forgot to say you have to rev it to 1000 rpm +/- 50 , or is this still wrong ? ignition timing im on about here !!
  15. No idea how much rolling costs , did mine myself . the plastic arches are only on the front , but at 75-80mm my wheels dont scrape it !!
  16. I just have to be carefull where i go , some speed bumps can be a pain in the ass because its about 3" off the floor . You will need 35mm offset , and the kahn's would look nice , so why dont you look out for some mint 2nd hand ones . Yes the arches on the rear have been rolled . Are you going to gti inters ?
  17. You will getaway with 7x17 as it is with 205/40r17 tyres , mine is lowered 75-80mm with original 90mm front spoiler ( colour coded ) .
  18. I can see a brother in the making lol !! Lower it and bang some 17" bbs rc brilliant on , and if you have the money 18" .
  19. Ive just done mine with a strobe light :- there is a line mark on the bottom pully , and a mark on the timing cover , if you set the strobe to 6 degrees slacken the two 10mm bolts on the distributer ( not too much so it only just turns ) , start it up and point the strobe onto the bottom pully , and move the distributer so the 2 marks line up , and thats it re-tighten the two 10mm bolts .
  20. Im glad were meetin up if you buyin the first round dazzy :drinking: DRINK !!
