Lol I was joking about the hammer, normally helps with everything else AS above, if you can, let it soak in a lubricant for a while, it may well unseize then
-
Wd40, vaseline and a mahoosive hammer!!
-
As above, not too long. Label the hoses so you know exactly where they all go back, unless you've got a good memory, unlike me :harhar: little things like that always help! especially if its your first time
-
Again, really nice wheels mate, looks better without smoked indicators

UPDATE: Recieved a nice fat set of KV85 Magnecors courtesy of 'Iamlegend' and fitted them today.. also, picking up a WEPR front mount on friday and fitting it with the missus, will update with pics on friday -
I used to have a corsa, did a lot to it and absolutely loved it. Also had a GSI with a redtop in it. Personally I love the lil' things. Them Steinmetz skirts are worth a good 120 quid... looks like a Friedrich motorsport powercap too. Little moneymaker by the sounds of it

Haha nothing spectacular like everybody else is doing Cupra R Splitter Paint the wheels in a top secret colour Polished Rx7 top mount intercooler Mild steel manifold Blitz De-cat HKS actuator RRFPR Get the body work looking tip top, buy wings with no side reps in them!! Top secret interior and exterior ideas I have plenty of unique little ideas flying round my head. I'll be going more for a cool, mint looking GT with mad little ideas over power to be honest. Could do with a little reliability To BAZ2CRAZY: Cheers mate, I think they're 185/60/14s ? Big chunky sidewalls I know lol but it -

Really shouldn't have as my mots due BUT an Autobahn Front mount intercooler came up very cheap so I shall be collecting in a few days. Yes, not the best make in the world but definitely a big improvement over the standard TMIC Pics will be up when fitted -

Bought a double gauge pillar pod from the last stock from the notorious Toy tuning, via Ebay. Didn't think I had a chance of receiving it after 2 weeks of nothing and no emails back BUT.... Woke up this morning to my mum walking in my room holding a box wrapped with toy-tuning tape Will fit today wooo: Notice the package at the top that looks like a shotgun (Actually a corsa steering rack that I'm sending to someone, should be fun with courier man when he collects!) -
Just read through the whole project thread, looks ace mate, would be well proud of it. Defo go for a carbon lip
-
Ace, fair do's to you mate. Was going to buy my brother in laws 205 1.9 GTI off him a little while back, but it went bang lol! Get it finished

Haha yeh could've, was tempted to paint them black with a like a candy red or purple rim.... but I couldn't shrink them to 14's -

greggt replied to greggt's topic in EP80/EP82 Progress Blogs
I did like them a lot, but I personally prefer my new ones and wanted 14's Plus I want it to be 'my' car, rather than it looking like it did when someone else had it, So I can look at it and say 'yeh I did that' -

After seeing the wheel on, it reminded me of my old starlet that had black wheels with a polished rim..... soo I painted the GT badge red like my old one had Sad I know, but I miss the old one really bad lol! Nice little cheap mod I also found that if you try and take a picture of fire with the flash on your phone, you can't see it on the picture! amazing lol. -

Not very good pics but you can see the difference already and I'm 500% happier with the new ones rather than the crimsons. Will get some good pics when she's polished and up and running again. -

Cheers for the comments Found that one tyre is very low so this is either because theyve been sat for a while or its not holding pressure, wasn't told about this before I received them in the post. Going to put two wheels on today though to get a taster I'll post up a pic in a bit -
