mic_VR's VR - The Awakening!

Recommended Posts

No way!?! Only moved to Bottisham myself in February. Should meet up for a pint down the Bell.

 

For the MOT/very basic items I use these guys http://motandservicingdirect.co.uk/ Its run by a friend of mine and he collects the car from home/drops it back etc.

 

Thanks for the recommendation. Definitely! Will ping you a PM. I'd suggest going for a drive, but this happened yesterday...

Yeah that'll definitely stop any going out for a drive!

 

Impressive work though.... and flashing a bit of subframe!

So, I've been trying to decide what to do with old Mincy.

 

I really fancy doing a big project now I've got a garage, but I'm not sure what.

Part of me wants to build another aircooled or a custom bike, and another parts wants to go crazy on the rado.

 

Conversely, I also fancy something newer on the drive that I don't need to worry about....

 

.... Yes, yes I know I'm very indecisive! :lol:

 

Either way, this turned up today so I need to make a decision.

Not sure I'll get an objective view from this forum but I'd be very interested to hear your views.

Chop in the Jazz for something fun (cough, GTI) and boost the Corrado!

 

I wouldn't want to (literally) be the only Corrado owner in the village ;)

I can still pop down the road to help with yours..... Plus I've still got the track car to build up!

The turbo is physically pretty big.... it's going to be tight if I do get around to fitting it!

Cheers mate, glad you enjoyed it. Always nice to meet another member and the work done on yours, all by yourself no less, is a credit to you.

 

Definitely a pint and a longer chat next time.

That's one giant african boost snail. What're you thinking about using for engine management? Stand alone?

If I do it, it'll be running standard 4motion ME7 management. I could switch over to DTA but I'm assured the standard management will handle boost fine

Cheers guys, I'm now on a hunt for a copy of the mag for my own collection.

 

Felt quick on the day, in isolation, but the modern turbo units ate me up out of the corners.... :( Next year it'll be a different story hopefully.

I'll just clarify, I found the picture in the mag and sent it to mic, I didn't take it! Still a cracking photo!

 

Was this pre or post spin mic?
