    You won't need to undo the TB from the manifold as you're changing both... much easier to leave them joined and just undo the plastic air intake hose. you'll need 2 hose clamps to clamp the coolant hoses from the TB. There's more than 6 bolts holding the manifold on (7 at the front, 2 at the back) but they're all the same size allen bolt. You'll also need a spline socket set to undo the plastic covers

    US cars don't have a front plate recess as most states don't require a plate at the front... had my last 2 engine bays polished/chromed fancied a change this time

    cheers... definitely worth hunting out a good back drop, I think a container park would make a good site but can't find one that will let you in!

    Appearances are deceptive mate... the clean bay is just attention to detail and a jet wash The paint is pretty much original just a lot of polish and wax (and the photo's are flattering) and it was originally badged as a GTI VR6 the little rabbits didnt come on mk3s... mine cost £2.95 from ebay and then I painted it black I'm flattered that you think it looks like it cost a fortune though... means I've got away with it!

    Thanks, but like Mike said haven't spent a lot at all... coilovers, wheels and leather recaros are about the only main things. The bodywork is pretty much standard US spec apart from the black grill, badges, mirrors and lights etc which I've done myself

    Not really any new mods (just a few tweeks) but as it actually stopped raining long enough for me to wash the car this weekend and I've got a new camera to play with I thought it's time to take some pics... The rain didn't hold off long enough to get the bonnet open so here's an engine pic from a few weeks ago...
