lol ! And there was me thinking I was rolling with the big boys with my £34 tub of Dodo Juice

I placed a big order with Elite car care when I found out I was in UD's - not really used any of it yet - next couple of days though

14 day moneyback garantee !!

Order it, give the car a once over and send it back saying you dont like the smell or something

welcome aboard

I saw about 8 T4's in convoy yesterday - must have been a club day out.

A few lowered ones too - looked ace !!!

Only thing about the vans is theres soooo metal to polish !!!! 8)

Loving the style mate !!

Looks like a good job on the woody effect

Just needs a roof rack and surf boards - get even more looks in MK then

Cheers guys.

Ray - the blasting and powdercoating cost £140 all in, quite a good price - local place. Like one of those health and safety - what NOT to do type of scenarios. lol

Oh man !!! Lifes cruel !!! - Just had a phonecall from the washer supplier, arrived today - sent by special delivery, will receive them tomorrow. Just in time to get them done for Ultimate dubs :roll: :cry: :cry: Love it when a plan comes together - Just after you've cancelled everything else you've...

Thats a really kind offer ! Thanks very much mate ! But.... I've just cancelled the show slot, I had the lowers painted last week and basically its a shocking job !!!! :shock: Took it to a local bodyshop which I'd had a couple of reccomendations of - first off the colour match was miles out ! Had it...

Thanks all - but unfortunatly its not looking good for Ultimate dubs :evil: Been costantly let down by the company supplying the blue washers - have been told they'd arrive by Friday for the last 4 Fridays !!!!!! Their the only company that makes them in the uk so I'm basically at there mercy :roll:...

Just standard Tesco 95ron for me 8)

I dont really drive it that hard to warrant the better fuel - also my clutch is a little worn so it still slips sometimes as it is !!!

When I finally get the clutch done and remap it'll be a different story

Did you have the bonnet up during the run ? Just wondering if you could see the Turbo intake pipe ? - I'm sure that they have a tendancy to collapse in on themselves at higher pressures and flow rates. Give it a feel and see if its soft or squidgy - rubber pipes degrade as they get older so its a po...

Metalic black for a bit of a twist ?

Would need a dark coloured primer to stop the stone chips standing out so much

Hi All. Question - do VW sell the standard paint colours in Rattle cans ? Need a can of my colour blue (Fjord ??) to try something out for my car ? Would rather use VW than get the gimp down my local Halfrauds to mix one up :? (Checked the colours on the shelf but its not there) Reason I ask is I kn...

I use a credit card to squeeze behind the side repeater and push the tab down (also pops it out at the same time) - works everytime and no chance of scratches

Have you put it on all the VW forums ? E38, Club GTi etc

worth a try

Thought I'd update my thread with some pictures of the almost finished wheels :wink: This will be the last update before the cars completed for Ultimate Dubs because I think its better to see new mods at the shows rather than on the net and by the time of the show its old hat etc. As said earlier th...

Thats looking awesome mate !!!! Super clean !!

The Parada's set the wheels off a treat, bet you park it with the wheels turned all the time

Glad you got it sorted Dave !

Little tip - when you place the O ring onto the pump use a little smear of grease or sealant to stick it in position. It'll stay putt then

Good choice Ray - looks menacing :twisted: Think I'll be going down the Mk3 route myself next year - either VR6 Turbo or 1.8T Transplant. Theres something about the shape thats grown on me over the last year or so - especially without the arch mouldings etc. Looks like a nice one mate !!! Whats the ...

lol, Good work Rich !!

Think that looks quite cool, maybe a rollbar in the back would set it off

And only 60k :shock: Whens the cambelt change due though ? Could be factor and also a reason for selling, surely it wont be a cheap job at VW. And would you trust a local garage to do it - I mean how W8's would they work on :| Looks nice though :twisted: Hmmmmm, LPG conversion and it'd be ideal !!!

Agreed !!!!! Especially as I've just placed an order with Elite car care for some nice detailing goodies in time for the start of the show season :mrgreen: I'm gonna have to get my other car out of the garage to get the passat in for a serious session before Ultimate Dubs !! Glad its heated too :wink:

Had the nice Saab coment once

Get quite a few looks at mine - even recently with the steels on, probably because its so low.

I'm expecting quite a lot more once I get the wheels back on and some spraywork though 8)
Wont be long now - just waiting on some bits !!!

Thanks all ! My insurance have said that unless I use one of there approved garages I'll have to stump up the excess until they claim it back off the other party - money I cant afford to do without at the moment :( But on the good side - its a very good garage that there sending me to. I'd prefer to...
