  1. Yep still here, but not for sale, it actually took along time to get 16s in 4x100 haha I got lucky when my mate bought a very 90's Astra GTE Mk2 for breaking which had them on. I will probably only get round to sorting the plates when i get fined for them, i have the new ones in the boot but sometimes i need a kick up the ass to sort something so trival.
  2. Yep, DG are spot on, due the the thing running correct im getting much better MPG now, the mfa before read about 16/17mpg now its 24/25mpg. I can only get to a few meets a year due to working nights, but thats how i got the dollor to buy the thing haha The badge and plates are a joke tbh, grit fill has been used to stick them on grrrr
  3. Saw this today at DG, looked pretty good. When are they starting on it?
  4. Went to DG Autotech, very happy! Dave their was very 'impressed' with how my car was running considering the amount of fault codes and other issues :lol: Basically: - my thottle position sensor wasnt working due to a broken wire, - My intake temp and fan switch were round the wrong way lol, - ISV dead So the loom was fixed, the sensors were plugged into their correct places, New (Used) ISV, and reset the idle position as it was compensating for the screwed ISV. And to finsh the job once the faults were sorted a custom Remap. Made the 100 miles after more fun. Very happy!
  5. Not sure exactly but its some very impressive glue/seallant haha Need to get a heat gun on it i think, atleast whatever mess is left will be hidden. Im really not looking forward to touching that Storm badge and not screwing the paint.
  6. Yep thats my bro's: kerrly2 . Its currently off the road for work and he is in my Golf which is on some bbs's now so he doesn't have to worry about remarks over the Venoms haha
  7. For now, its been stuck on a little over the top by the previous owner - the same reason my new plates are in the car and the stupid german ones still on.
  8. Bit of an update, just booked the car in for a going over and remap at DG Autotech on the 4th January . Me and my bro (Mainly) talked to Dave at DG at a track day at Castle Combe and i was very impressed and believe it will be in good hands. Also i bought a new set of wheels, Azev A 16x7.5, so i should have pics of them fitted soon. And on the 29th January the car will be on the rollers at Alton Automotive with the Club Polo lads so i will have a new up-to-date chart. Mike
  9. Yeah Dave/kerrly did good. Yeah side on my car is only slightly lower on coilovers due to the 17's. They got enough room so they never scrub, the fronts don't have the arch liner in though. Cheers for the positive comments.
  10. Yo Kris, hows you and the motor?. Yeah i was signed in as Dave on the last post. I'll be keeping the rear lights as they suit it nicely. Mike
  11. This is the lastest motor i have got my hands on, and its here to replace my Golf. Btw i know it not clean but poop happens at this time of year. Its had a ton of work do in the engine bay and it is currently running around 230bhp. The engine sounds great as the exhaust system is a 6 branch into a full Miltek job. People thought my 16" Venoms were iffy, how about the 17" Momo Arrows? As the pics show the front splitter is a bit screwed but i dont see the point in changing it anytime soon as it hits the entrance to my car park. So im going to be throwing £££ at this thing now, mainly at the fuel pumps but you get over it. btw Im a younger brother of 'kerrly' one here (He owns a Nuggart Yellow G60) so i have met a couple of people off here at Castle Combe and E38 '10.
