  1. Ooh will have to pick up a copy tomorrow! How did you get on 1/4 and 0-60 on a good surface? don't suppose you've tried on the strip with the Racelogic on and off for comparison?
  2. Love the seats! But then I am a bit biased :) looks a very smilar colour too. Did you re-dye you existing seats or get them re-upholstered?
  3. I'm going to see Vince on Saturday to have a good chat about this kit, unfortunately his test car is having a few upgrades put on so won't be able to test drive :( I just wondered if any VRT boys were planning on being around Stealth this Saturday as I'd really like a ride in one at least before I commit :)
  4. WRT the Red tops on eBay, £50 each is pretty steep. Personally, I'd pay £150 tops for reds, £200 for Greens., but you've got to play the waiting game for them to come up!
  5. I've got a set of 440cc Green tops I was gonna use. I'd get 360cc red tops if I were you though. It took me ages to choose the 84 over the 94. Basically, you can't use a pulley larger than 80mm as it causes rubbing issues. An 80mm pulley on a 94 size charger will give 400+ Bhp ( see B5VWC thread) whereas the 84 should give you 310-330 depending on what other parts you use.
  6. Happened to mine too last year, luckily took it to a mate who welded it back together in two ticks. Good luck!
  7. AFAIK, the ebay "Tierod69" slaves have been highly recomended on here for a while. I have one at home ready to fit sometime soon so can't comment myself though.
  8. Saw Jackass 3D on Friday night, and after a stressful week at work it was perfect. Some of the slow-mo 3D shots looked amazing, the sequences at the beginning and end were probably the best use of 3D tech I've seen. 9/10 for me.
  9. If you have the thermostatic sandwich plate, the oil won't get into the cooler until it's warm; in which case I'd be tempted to put something infront of the cooler to block the airflow through it, unless it's directly infront of your radiator that is!
  10. What are the actual differences between a 4-MO and R32? Is it just 0.4 litre engine capacity, bodykit, seats and brakes? Are there any major differences in the suspension/drivetrain between the two?
  11. Did that little lot include the tool 524 to adjust the rack with? (22mm hex head)
  12. Seats look immaculate! Love the Furniture Clinic stuff :)
  13. Nice one! Which sensor did they replace?
  14. Mmmm cant beat a bit of big brakes, looks spot on now! When are you sticking the turbo on?
  15. I have a fire extinguisher in mine! Fits perfectly.
  16. Stick a nice 2.8 OBD2 VR from a mk3 Golf in your current car. Best of both worlds then!
  17. Just reminded me to sign up to the CCGB :) Have been meaning to for ages, so thanks Dave!
  18. I LOL'd! I have to go across a toll bridge on my way to and from work every day, so use the coin slots for my change all the time! From my research: 5 and 20s are good, but 10s and £1s do tend to fall out.
  19. I was thinking about it the other day actually. I used to have all grey interiour with grey cloth and absolutely hated it, too much grey is depressing. I think all black plastics, dash and carpets, with grey leather seats would look really good. Not sure on the doorcards though.
  20. Which garage did you take it to? Graham at GK Autos on Abingdon Road is the man I'd take it to...
  21. Imwas pretty surprised too, can't believe I hadn't checked that before now. The arb bush and arm that secures it were replaced when I built the subframe up, and I'm sure I torqued them up. Another job for the weekend!
  22. I THINK I may have found an answer to my knocking problem: both arb bolts (13mm between the rear wishone and rear subframe bolt) are loose and just spin and spin when I try to tighten or loosen them. Is it just a case of lowering the whole subframe and engine until I can get access to the top of them or is there something more sinister involved?
