    Cheers peeps, I'll try and get some better pics over the weekend, the centres are silver, so they kinda match the wheels on a black and silver theme. Thinking of some Just Matz black mats with silver edging?

    Camshaft sensor was gone on mine when I got it, replaced it with a second hand one from a breakers I know and it's been fine ever since. Makes the car drive odd though, no low down grunt. The MAF you can get from GSF on a part ex, about £80 for an OE Bosch one.

    I thought I'd post a couple of pics of my new interior, the seats are from an Octavia vRS, which are the same fitment as a mk4, the door cards are from a black Colour Concept and I think it works really well.

    Awesome pics, I went on safari in Kenya in June - I must post up some pics!

    Sorry to hear about the accident, that's some impact! Hope you get better soon.

    I'm afraid I started of with Fiesta's! I had a 1.1 mk2 Fiesta when I passed Then a 1.0 mk3 Fiesta Part ex'd that for a 1.4 Zetec mk4, which I kept for 5 years, stuck a 1.7 Puma engine in it once I'd had it a few years, did loads to it, inc a re-spray. Then I got my mk1 Golf Swallowtail, which I later sold back to it's last owner before me. Sold the mk4 Fez and bought my VR. Not a lot of cars for ten years of driving! However my partner has had a mk2 Golf for the last 6 years (now a BAM'd 1.8T, 280BHP) and a mk4 GT TDI for 3 years. So have been into dubs for years.

    Cheers guys! The back can come down another 10mm, tempted but I do carry 4 people occasionally. Another reason for removing the sound deadening was it was filthy!

    114k, but on the second engine, the first one died due to neglect though, previous owners of course. Current engine has apparently done 50k, runs sweet as a nut!

    I was tempted by the TT wheels myself, they look good. Cheers for the comments guys!

    Yep, 17's. Genuine Audi ones, made by Ronal. eBay bargain, I love auction steeler! However the tyres weren't cheap!

    I fitted new wheels last week, Audi S3 Avus alloys with Eagle F1 tyres, I'm quite chuffed with them so I thought I'd stick up some pictures I also cleaned under the bonnet and gave the manifold a bit of a polish.

    Looks good, I like the overall look and the colours. Just one or two points though - why is it so thin? I can appreciate that not everybody has stupidly big monitors, but even on my 14" laptop screen it doesn't fill the screen. It would be easier to read, and larger pictures wouldn't overspill the page. Secondly, if someone posts pictures that are bigger than the width of the forum, can we have something put in place to automatically re-size the images so you can click on them to get it in full res (like Edition 38 now has)? I've just had a moderator re-size my images to fit the page and th

    I spent yesterday cleaning under the bonnet, it was pretty clean already as I did it quite thoroughly when we replaced the engine - but that was months ago now. I also removed the under bonnet sound deadening, I can't believe how shiney it is under there. Needs a proper polish, the inlet manifold finishing and the black plastic dressing. No point doing this yet as I expect the bidy shop will make a mess.. Moderator Edit to Resize Pictures Moderator edit by: TheGoth

    Not sure yet, I'm not after a bare metal job and I've had cars painted by this guy before, so hopefully it won't be too much. Around £1500 but this guys work is second to none, I also want to replace all the glass and both bumpers. JK, race you - mine is going in later than yours though..

    I know it looks pretty good in the pics, but up close it's covered in swirl marks. I wasn't going to bother, but both sills have rusty holes, there are stone chips on the leading edge of the roof, and both bumpers need replacing. Oh, and the NSR quater panel has had paint in it's life, without removing the windows so there is over spray on the rubber seal. I expect some of it will be flattened and re-lacquered, but the majority will be painted.

    I took these yesterday, probably the last pics before it goes to the bodyshop in about a month for a re-spray. I spent most of the weekend in my garage cleaning it, only for it to rain within 5 minutes of getting it out! Got a few beading pics though. Images aren't that great a quality as I had to use Windows to resize them. Beading; The wax I used was P21S, great stuff.

    Why spend all that money on a car and not insure it properly? Having it insured under his mum's name means he hasn't actually got valid insurance since it's his car and is the main driver.

    I run the H&R cup kit, it's great - no complaints at all. Run H&R coilovers on my partners mk2 with H&R ARB's and it's awesome! Big fan of H&R me...

    Looks nice, wheels suit it.
