Not sure if they'll be of cars mind. I think Carl and sqealieboy are on some sort of gay mission to get loads of c**k shots in the men's toilets

Looking forward to seeing LOTS of photos of our club cars

My audi a3 3.2 is running 277bhp with a titanium exhaust, forced induction and a savage map.. it pulls like a train to be honest..

Got my pass yesterday, looking forward to this!

I am not bothering to clean mine until Saturday lol!  Spent over a week on her for tatton and she let me down lol  

It's all coming together now lads.
My boots tightly packed with all the camping gear.
The inside is clean.
Just a spit and polish on the outside and I'm ready.
This will be a quality show. Let's hope the whether is on our side.

7 days to go boys really hoping it's gonna be a great stand this year with a decent variety... I'm going into cleaning mode as of Monday

Nah nothing from ILovehoney.com this time mate

Awesome that like.. Dave this is what my next project will be like..

I then decided against the Mk4 recaro’s, they were really comfy but a bit too big and wasn’t the way I wanted to go so I opted for some Recaro Pole Positions, I made up some subframes to mount them as low as possible
 

 
I then tucked the car up for winter but unfortunately my girlfriends car broke down so we had to use mine over Christmas in the horrible grit and snow…
 

 
I then spent a whole day giving it a proper clean to ensure the salt was off
 

 

 
SO that brings us into 2015. Progress was slow as I’m studying a Masters in Acoustics at Salford University, whist doing 40+ Hour working weeks and somewhere in the middle me and my girlfriend finally brought out own place. What sold it though was the double garage J

 
Car all tucked up in its new home, first thing that got moved in haha!
 

 
I then set about getting it set-up as a workshop with a compressor, welder, 3m Work bench etc
 

 
After a few months of sorting the hous, doing uni work and working away a fair bit I finnaly had some time to get stuck back into the car. As I only live 10 minute bike ride from work I could take the car off the road and redo everything as I feel I rushed it first time just to get it on the road. I also had an idea that the headgasket was on its way out, powersteering pump was leaking and the exhaust was blowing. After a good once over my thoughts were confirmed, the headgasket had gone but luckily I managed to catch it ssoon before any damage was done.
 
As the engine was going to be stripped I decided that I would take the engine out, replace all seals, paint the block, re-route all the wiring through chassis legs, remove heater matrix (Replace with electric heater), smooth engine bay and weld up all unused holes.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 
With the bar partially stripped I did something I have always loved and removed the rain tray with some help from a good mate of mine
 

 

 

 
So that brings us up to the current day. I haven’t worked on the car for a while due to currently being away with work and having university assignments to do but all of that will be over in a few weeks and I can get stuck back into it again, I really cant wait to get it done and back on the road!!!!
 
Future plans are:
 
·        Smoothed bay (Maintaining original lines)
·        Re-route harness
·        Re-Spray bay
·        Inline coolant filler
·        Remove heater matrix
·        Re-Build Engine with all new seals and PS Delete
·        Motorsport Pedal Box with remote reservoirs
·        Motorsport Shifter
·        Powder coated; Subframe, rear beam, wishbones, hub, engine cross member etc
·        Polly Bush throughout
·        Eibach ARB’s
·        6 branch Manifold
·        Vortex 2.5” Exhaust with De-Cat
·        Re-Trimmed seats and door cards
·        VDO Gauges
 
Thanks for reading and hopefully I can keep this up-to-date as I go along J

Are you a long time reader, or what is known as a lurker?
Why not say hello, introduce yourself and perhaps post some photos of your car?
We don't bite, and are a friendly bunch as you probably already know.
Engage and be part of a great community, you don't have to sit there just reading and not saying anything
If you have any questions etc... then just ask

Glad you got sorted pal and hope you make the show.

Thanks for offer mate much appreciated the car is now booked in with a local bodyshop. They are located literally round the corner they do good work because we use them often for customers and I am getting good deal as it will be worked on as and when they can. So all going well will report back in couple of weeks with a finished car.

No bother mate. I'm only in Chester Le street so nor that far from you.. I'm sure we could get it somewhere near..

Beer, food and generally being a nuisance on Saturday and show day Sunday. Haha

Yep, hes due on 27th July, so breaking him into the scene very early :-)
