Wheels are now fitted
Had a problem when one wheel decided to leak air when fitting yesterday but got it re-sealed today so. All is good
Some pics but not the best as on my iphone and was getting dark
Really liking how it sits but the rear end is slightly higher as it's sitting on the tyre wall but gonna play about with the camber
Also my gti wiper arms came and looked abit dull:
So as soon as they arravived I took them in the garage and sanded them down and started painting and finished them today.
Results:
Came out really well and look a lot fresher!
Just found out my brother in law is getting a dip tank so gonna try getting a thew engine bay bits dipped and on the hunt for a lupo gti engine cover

Haven't posted on here in a while and have a thew updates
Bought new tyres this week and arrived on Wednesday, went for Nankang 165 55 14s
Got them fitted yesterday at a friends gargage, only took 4 of us to get them on the 8J's haha
Pics of wheels:
Stretch on the 8J's
And 7J's....
Gonna clean the wheels tomorrow, give them a polish a seal them with poor boys wheel sealent and if the weather isn't s**t I will put them on and see how it sits! exciting times!
Some other goodies I've purchased:
New spigot rings and bolts for the wheels
Also the other week I was cleaning out my garage and found a jet wash which had been in there for months so ordered myself a snow foam lance.
Since my last post I have also sprayed my door card handles and window switches gloss black and very pleased with them
Didn't get before pics but wish I did cause they were worrid! Looks so more better now tho. This weakend I want to remove my rear view mirror and spray that gloss black but gotta try not to crack my windscreen haha
Also bought some gti front wiper arms which should arrive tomorrow
Will update over the weakend with the wheels fitted etc. stay tuned people

I have 14x7 et15 and 14x8 et20 rsl cults and not sure on what size tyres to go for as I'm on air also.
I was thinking 175/50 on the 8j? Any help would be appreciated
-
Cheers guys
They won't be on till about march next year which is depressing but good things come to those who wait
-
It can be a number of things tbh mate, have you checked for leaks? Does the car let out blue smoke? Could possibly be piston rings, stem seals if it's burning oil.

Today she went into winter mode
P slots are now on and spaced out but on the upside she's sitting lower air'd out
(Please excuse how dirty she is)
While I was putting the p slots on I thought it would be rude not to trial fit the cults, only tried out the one 8j on the rear and was very pleased
All for now!

Check your gearbox mount, I had a knock like the same symptons and couldn't find anything then a thew weeks later found my gearbox mount had snapped. Changed mount and knocking went. Also check arb bushes and make sure it's not hitting the body

Well today I took a trip down to Swindon to pick up next years wheels from Emma on here.
They're RSL Cults 14x7 et15 and 14x8 et20.
Sad times next weakend as car will be put back on p slots for winter
-
Looks smart, good transformation
-
Change your temp sensor and thermostat
-
Does the car crank but not fire I.e there's no spark?
-
Checked your throttle body? They're electric on sports, disconnect it and reconnect it cause I had a problem with accelerater did this and worked? Worth a try
-
Really good mate, it's great having 8 different pre sets and also rise on start
