  2. legvw

    Not too bad, i used m6 countersunk bolts and tiger seal to seal them. I should have removed the lip on the boot, where the sealant is, so the window sits flat like the 2 rear quarter windows. And the spoiler is stuck on, and a couple of self tapers to hold it in place while it dryed.

    Now now Tony, jealousy won't get you anywhere! Yeah, come down when you've got yours fitted and we could have a look at it please.

    I might be changing my 10mm spacers for 20mm in the near future. I'd be happy to help you fabricate a roll cage if you want to try. Can do the curves without bending..... Ok, we'll have a chat about it soon then mate, chuck a few ideas around! And yes please when you swap your spacers...

    Splitter

    legvw replied to shawry's topic in General Chat

    Early vr's have the deeper splitter, whilest the later vr's have the thinner one. Don't really know why, maybe vw had a funny 5 minutes!

    Yep, for sure mate, they seem the cheapest about, and i can get them fitted for bangers so not too bad. Was looking at 215 40 17's, wouldn't mind some falken fk452's, as Katies got them on the front of hers and they are really good! Even in the pants weather they hold up pretty well.

    Yeah, i'l have a bit more of a think me thinks....

    I've thought about, and come to the conclusion that yes like you say, its not something you want to take a chance on really. Plus to make a basic cage, like the omp one, it would take alot of working out, and working, and buying a cage wouldn't be too much more than making a home made one, not with the price of steel these days!

    I was thinking about a custom cages cage, but they're mega money, but i hadn't seen the omp cages that cheap before! Might be worth buying, and then modifying to suit my needs, which would look like the custom cages design.

    Well the list has got alot shorter! It needs 4 tyres and 10mm spacers on the rears before the mot in feb, the inside needs painting once i've fitted a cage, and it needs a service. Not too much, but the cage is lots of £££! And the outside will need a blow over once the weathers warmed up.

    LOL! :-)

    Should have done a before and after weight.

    I think it should 'run on' after the ignition is turned off, all the time, but i may be wrong, but i know Katies vr pump does. Have you tried unplugging it and testing to see if you get a reading arcoss the 2 wires, with ignition on and then off? It could be a fault in the wiring between the pump and the main engine plug just above it. Get a multimeter out and test the wires mate as i know they can become brittle after time.

    Nice. So what are they going on? Whats with the trainers though Ben?
  22. legvw
    Yeah will get it weighed once its done, got a mate who works on a farm with a weigh-bridge. Already got the flocked dash, thats the one i've been modifying! :-)
  23. legvw
    Got me windows in, and blanked the sunroof hole with a sheet of aluminium. Also started modifying my dash by removing the air vents and associated pipe work from inside the dash. Before; After; And more stuff to throw away; Then i set about making templates for the new blanking panels that will cover the speaker holes, air vents, radio etc. And just transfered the templates onto aluminium. They all needed shaping slightly to blend in with the shape of the dash, and will look better when they are sprayed matt black.
