  1. ha, nice on nigel... anyone up for a trip??? maybe april, may next year? nice avatar btw, looks very much like you ! where did you get it from
  2. me id be up for that, what sort of dicsount are e talking about, providing we get the numbers, or any idea of a final price. thx jim
  3. absy, it standard ish at the mo, 6 branch ,no cat ,stainkess zorst, filter. but i am planning to charge it after chrimbo, unless i can turbo it for the same money. so i can see the sense in getting a clutch that more than capable. which is what i will more than likely do, probaly get it from grmany though, as it should work out cheaper. thx all
  4. eek. think ill give the techniclutch a miss then , maybe more of a chocolate clutch.. anyone no what power a normal standard type clutch will put up with? i had used a ap clutch with a exedy plate b4 on my 200sx's, but probaly not ideal for a vw. im still hopeing to go supercharged. but nothing over 300bhp, so will a new standard clutch push to that , or will it top itself much before my intended/final power level.
  5. is it worth doing a group buy on these, seems to be enough peeps that need one , including me.
  6. ive heard good tings about them, though ill probaly go for sachs, as they are usally very good
  7. ah that'll teach me to listen to previous posts then.! ill price a clutch kit up and hope for the best. cheers all
  8. no thats true, due for a brake fluid change soon , so i assume the resovior for the clucth is feed from that, might see if that helps , as the fluid looks as if it has seen better days. i take it brake/clutch fluid still takes on water over time/use ??? or am i barking up the wrong tree?
  9. probaly aint the orig clutch either, although having said that i owned many high milage 140000 + mile vw's and they were still on the orig clutch.
  10. 160,000 miles, but iy displays none of the normal , clucth wearing probs.. i think ill just suck it and see, and wait till it slips all the time. not just when its having a blonde day, dropping the box out aint a option as i dont have the spare wonga, and now winters here i aint doing it myself
  11. right, quick update. clutch hasnt slipped for about a week, drove the car the other day and now its slips in 5th.wtf.. it so intermitant , and never in the same gear... any ideas, do the clutch ratchets stick? worth greasing anything ? would a faulty slave cylinder do this.. im really stumped, and tbh i dont wanna chuck a clutch in it , if its not the problem. jim
  12. what a nutter, man after my own heart
  13. cant play the vids, says private video, make sure you r on the providers freinds list ???? that happen to anyone else. jim
  14. ha, was there anyone , not expecting to see transformers humping...! not what i thought it was gonna be.

  19. you could try a colder set of plugs!! it may help, or it may not. always does the trick in turbo type motors. you should have said hello if you were in colchester..
  20. think the ring only applies to you mate dont think ive ever seen a clutch like the on in your avatar before....looks like it said fcuk this im off...
  21. why not retro fit one from a mk2 cl, nice and thin. i mean hen i had my mk2 , the thing to do was fit one from a mk3, so it must be possible , or even worth a trip to the scrappy to get a cheap one and measure it up. ???? jim
  22. words cant make you feel any better,but sorry dude. Got any leads??? take it the police are involved?? i hope you find the, and give them the beating of thier lives...
  23. yeah, i agree, the pod and the like are hard on clutchs and gearboxs...my clutch still aint slipping, dunno what it was, im gonna try giving it a hard time and see what happens.
  24. oh, im in colchester, essex.. eird thing is that its now stopped slipping again.????
  25. yeah vrs type, im hoping that they might be the octavia vrs ones....
