  1. Had this turn up the other day from Got.Boost, Cusco Carbon Fibre rear strut brace, can't believe how light they are! Also had my manifold welded up, and this time braced. And had the screamer pipe extended from where it had broke off before going down the by-pass! I'll get some pics up when I've got some!
  2. After a 1bar Tial W/G spring, where to get one?
  3. I'd have rev'd the shit out of it if someone complained to me about it!
  4. Looking good dude, good choice on ditching the carbon wrap! Keep up the hard work
  5. Can't beat a vag with a touch of Jap styling. Looking good dude! Oh, and drop a 1.8t into it ;)
  6. Yeah think Ive got a few ideas, just along way before I'll spend money on getting things sprayed. Cheers man
  7. When I built my forged engine I used Millers Competition Running in oil. 1. Run the car upto temp and take for 5 min drive, drop the oil and filter. (Millers CRO) - very steady drive 2. Do 50 miles and drop oil and filter (Millers CRO) - steady drive, not boosting or high rpm. 2. Do 100 miles drop the oil and filter (Millers CRO) - Using abit more power, and let the gears slow you down to bring the rings out. (bed them in better) 3. Do 250 miles drop the oil and filter (Miller CRO) - Using abit more power again, letting the gears slow you down to bring the rings out. (bed them in better) 3. Do 250 miles drop oil and filter (Millers CRO) - Again, using more power, same process as before. 4. Either another 250 miles of Millers CRO and same as above, or fill with the oil that you will be using for the rest of the engines life and kick its head in! 5. After that, regular oil and filter changes (3k max.) Don't sit at the same RPM all the time when running in, sitting on the motorway wont do it any good. Hills are nice aswell to get a load on it, and remember to let the gears slow you down from time to time to pull the rings out. After I had ran the engine in, I use Fuchs Titan Race Pro S 5W 40 (formerly known as Silkolene Pro S) which is a fully synthetic oil This is just the method I used, and it seems to have done the job, others will say different, but each to there own. Hope this helps!
  8. Looks alot better dude!
  9. Fit an aftermarket lsd to your standard box, if you get an optional extra lsd box you will also need to change your drive shafts, which doesnt need to be done when fitting an aftermaket to the standard.
  10. That is funny man!Not good about the relationship tho!
  11. thats awesome stuff, well done man!
  12. EP82 ftw, and I drive an EP91!
  13. I had my HT leads popping out when running higher boost, tightened the plugs a little more (all of them) and it's not done it since
  14. Received the brace today, less than 24hours since i paid, cheers man!
  15. Hopefully the brace will be mine, just waiting on payment details
  16. Didn't make it, was still collecting parts when the meet started, never mind fitting it all to get it running! Bumped into Matt, Whitegv down brum though at about 1am! Which led to a 'steady' drive back up the M42 ;) When's the next meet? Next month?
  17. Welcome dude
  18. I wouldn't run it personally, might be fine but wouldn't take the risk
  19. Love the boxer dude, got one my self!
  20. That's what I thought, just wondering what colours to do the cage and the inside. Can't decide lol
