Vinnyzf Posted May 18, 2013 Report Share Posted May 18, 2013 Beautiful car man! What does the boot build sound like? I want to build a ported box for mine but not sure if I could fit one in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete91 Posted May 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2013 Cheers vinny! I'm biased cos it's mine haha but I think it sounds great. When you turn it right up you can feel your hair starting to move haha. Emm I'm not sure if you could fit a ported box in tbh. How many subs are you going to be running? What the capacity of the box gonna be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeA Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 I forgot you wer colour blind, it's something noone has ever been able to explain to me properly haha! All I know is, despite many people thinking so, it doesn't mean that you see in black and white! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete91 Posted June 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 Cleanest gti on here! Sweet thread Cheers mate! Dunno about that though lol...I think Ben wins that award!Got some chromed parts courtesy of Joe through the post the other day Heat shield. Surprisingly fitted straight on with only the bottom of the cover having to be widened a couple mm. I thought it might be a by of a ball ache but couldn't have been easier:Bonnet catch:As I was taking the latch off I noticed a cable not connected to anything? Figured it would be along the lines of a sensor to say if the bonnet had been left open but I've never heard anyone mention that they had this feature? If anyone has any ideas that would be awesome.

Huw Pugh Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 Nice! I've got a spare bonnet catch in the garage was going to plate with a few other engine bits. Is it difficult to plate and fit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete91 Posted June 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 Looking really smart pete Mmmmm, shiny!Cheers chaps Nice! I've got a spare bonnet catch in the garage was going to plate with a few other engine bits. Is it difficult to plate and fit?Cheers mate. I bought it off joe on here so it was already plated. Tbh though it's quite intricate so could be a pain to get plated. As for taking it off though it couldn't be easier. All there is is two bolts (t25 I think) to hold it on and another bolt at the bottom that holds a bracket that needs to be wiggled to get it free. There's also the bracket that holds the release cable that needs slid out. Biggest advice though, before you take the first two bolts off take a picture of how the bracket fits cos if I goes out of line then you'll have a fun time trying to get it back in the right place! When it's out of line the bonnet won't lock down properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
