  1. Just some help/advice needed please, My 1992 vr was running std 280mm front brakes until i upgraded to the later spec 288mm setup and redstuff pads, The wear indicator on the pads didnt fit the connection on the car so the dash light has always been on, Im now upgrading to 312's if i can squeeze them behind my 16's, Is there a pad that will have the correct wear indicator to suit or am i still stuck with the light on? For some reason it has never been addressed at mot time, Any help would be awesome
  2. Only a few, Its all about timing at the minute what needs to be done before or after the bodyshop and only have evenings free, Im sure it will all start falling into place
  3. Your best searching companies online but the ones that may be worth a try are - Venom motorsport Larkspeed Awesome gti store
  4. No worries, The scorpion fits well and is available in a twin round slash cut tailpipe or the boxer which is a oval design, Both tuck nicely under the rear bumper
  5. Im running a Scorpion backbox combined with Miltek decat and standard centre sections, Sounds nice on tickover and even nicer under load but not intrusive on the m'way
  6. Nightmare, I know where your coming from although I just use several pieces of wood these days to get the car high enough to get the jack under
  7. Had a few parts arrive By courier today and picked up a new splitter from a Local vw specialist whilst i was over there, Also Visited a local firm who are going to make me up some 8mm id braided fuel hose to suit the car with pro clamp fittings so they took there measurements today and should be complete after the weekend, Only problem i have now is im still waiting on my coilovers, Camber bolts and shims to arrive and all of this needs fitting before i lose the car to the bodyshop on Wednesday on the hope its all complete for Ultimate dubs....Fun times, Pic of the German plates and number
  8. Pm received and Replied, Thanks Helen, Looking forward to it and meeting some other members
  9. Cheers guys, Car has been delayed going into the bodyshop by a week so deciding to take it off the road and use the mk1 as my daily for now, Ordered new fk coilovers, Eibach camber bolts, Camber shims, Top mounts, These will be fitted in the next few days along with new rear discs, pads and bearings, Will get some pics on the progress this week
  10. Hi all, Since taking ownership of my Vr 18months ago it has always seemed a bit lazy to start once you turn the key after comparing it to other vr's. Never really bothered me but whilst sorting a few other things i would like to try and rectify this, Can anybody give me an idea what it may be? Its a 1992 obd1 model, I was thinking maybe a new starter motor/ignition coil combined with a new bosch battery but if anyone can shed some light on this that would be great
  11. A recent pic (not very good) of the interior showing the newly fitted black a,b,c pillars, Black sunvisors and retrimmed headlining in black cloth, Just need to fit the black grab handles then this job will be complete. 2.8 Engine cover fitted and had a quick clean up in the bay...aint been touched in months
  12. Dont think that was travelling the legal speed limit. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-manchester-16716617

  14. Heater matrix wasnt a job for me... Thank god for Dan @ The Devon Dub Shack.
  15. Lanyards, Tailored mats with Logo would be nice, Seat covers like the snap on style? Polo Shirts and jackets good idea with logo on,

  21. Anybody running or heard an Ashley system on a vr? Picked up a brochure at the weekend and they have a 2 1/4 diameter 3 box system with Twin round tailpipes available at a very reasonable price, Also do a manifold to match, If anyone has any info on these that would be great
