Recommended Posts

It's been a long long time since I updated this,

I have been up to a lot, but the car is still looking the same :)

So.. The head on my engine decided it didn't like the valve

My friend decided to change into first instead of third so that was the outcome..

So I replaced

the head

head gasket

cambelt

water pump

aux belt

oil & filter

plugs

leads

coil pack

It runs even better than before and I'm back in love with it

I'm also running fresh callipers up front as mine were binding :shades:

Oh and I finally got my windscreen fixed!

I will get round to sorting the paint soon :)

Thanks for looking :thumbup:

Loved it on the RW's (I'm a bit partial to those wheels to be honest), but these look incredibly well!

Thanks dude! After 2 years of having the rw's it's time for a change :D

Oh did you?? What were you driving? :)

I was in my wife's mini clubman, you were just at the bottom of pavillons way. It made me want another Lupo GTI! :lol:

So I've just made a splitter out of my friends old one.. Let me know what you think; I'm a bit unsure:blink: 

 

im going to be working with a composite company soon to design a splitter of this type, plus other goodies :ph34r:

Thanks mate :) That's the sort of thing in going I'm going for on the looks; I wore through it and it split in two :lol:
