  1. Glad it's up and running, really like that turbo setup. Do you have a power graph from mapping? You don't cook calipers.. What pads were in it? How new is the fluid? How much were you braking? There are a lot of variables to brakes, the last one can be more of an issue than people think.
  2. Feel free to PM me your best price including delivery.
  3. No point fitting a diffuser without a splitter, they work together. I'll be looking at running some aero on mine at some point. Splitter, flat foot and diffuser.
  4. Speak with the insurer you earned 4 years of NCB with, they will still have record.
  5. I'm a member of a few forums, so I decided rather than faffing about with multiple build threads I'd just update a wordpress blog. Updated after this weekend: http://ep82.wordpress.com/2014/05/06/wires-wires-wires/
  6. You know, there's a perfectly serviceable fuel tank already fitted to the car, piece of piss to fill as well, there's a door on the rear quarter and everything.. haha. Tart! ;) This is all I have in my spare wheel well so far. It's all wired up, just needs plumbing in now, and I can't decide whether or not to buy the fittings and do it all myself or have the local hydraulics place do it for me. We'll see. Where did you get your fittings from?
  7. Looks shiny, but doesn't the tank have it's own system for fuel surge, it should do? You've also moved a lot of weight higher up in the car which doesn't make a great deal of sense either. I'm going to mount and wire my fuel system today as well, I have to cover it all up though otherwise it wont go through scrutineering. Didn't stop me buying fancy fittings though ;)
  8. www.Ep82.wordpress.com For anyone that's interested.
  9. M10 for a bumper?! Is it made of solid lead? A few M6 nuts and bolts will be more than sufficient. I replaced the plastic clips on mine with rivnuts and m6 allen bolts, plenty solid.
  10. Have a Tongs fitted to my car, although I've yet to drive it in anger. I almost sold it and went TF035, but in the end decided to give it a go. For what I need to use the turbo for, and the amount of power I need a hybrid ct9 makes the most sense, for now. I need 145whp, that's it, I could probably get away with a standard CT9 for those figures, but I suspect it would run out of puff before the end of the rev range.
  11. I'd really quite like this car.. Lovely looking thing. Good luck with the sale, I hope it goes to someone who will just appreciate it for what it is and not butcher the thing.
  12. Let quicker cars through, even if they 'shouldn't' be quicker. There will be a briefing you'll have to attend, pay attention in that and you'll be fine? How long is your session? It'll be over before you know it.
  13. I 'almost' bought one, then realised what an absolute waste of money it would have been.
  14. You'll have knocked something, or disconnected a sensor and not connected it.
  15. Tyres, they come with a set of China's finest 'Wung Ting Ditchfinders'.
  16. Stick a harness bar in the cage, much safer than having the harnesses at such an extreme angle.
  17. Because they're good? How many hours R&D will have gone into a Miltek system versus some chump in a garage welding your 'one off' exhaust up?
  18. Mandrel bends are a must, I've yet to come across a Powerflow franchise that doesn't crush bend your exhaust into submission. Buy off the shelf for peace of mind, Miltek for VW stuff.
  19. I'm looking for the plastic covers that go over the nuts on the windscreen wipers. For a EP82 GT, not sure if they're the same on the Glanza. Cheers
  20. I had a square setup, so 4 rear wheels, looked decent.
