Well guys it was all MOT'd and on the road as of last Tuesday, i Taxed it for 12months (which i rarely do it was £250) and it seemed a great little car. It needed the alignment setting up on it but bar that i was chuffed with what i had achieved with her. Anyway on Saturday i was dropping a Lady...

Ahhh cheers mate, ive just searched the Forum RE that issue (never even knew they had one) That would explain alot!! That has made me happier as even less to repair now!!

Well had MOT on Thursday and Failed. But it was not on Much Heres what she failed on.. Front Lights Aim too low Hazard switch not working Offside ball joint has excessive play (it needs the pinch bolt tightening up) Rear brakes recording little or no effort (Just needs freeing up due to it...

Cheers mate,thats what ive been told but im normally a pug man and havent heard of a stealth until today lol FAIL, the exhaust mount is fubared so i plan on getting a new one :) And the bumper is temporary ;)

Sorry guys seems that i cant find a decent picture of a standard exhaust :( Mines a bit throaty, could anyone tell me if its standard? No induction kit is on it Any help would be much appreciated

Well virtually finished her this weekend, Bled the brakes and finished the bits and bobs, starts first time every time :) A few bits that need sorting out but i wasnt going to find them out until i took it for a spin. Needs alignment etc... doing which is a bit obvious and then its ready for...

Quick Update Went the Garage today, Driveshaft on albeit without the hub nut, ball joint being the biggest pain in the arse ever! Got the back bumper on and fitted a new number plate light for it The Wing coming next week so that will be getting fitted. Seemed it didnt want to start today for...

Update, Got the car back from the bodywork place on Friday. Ordered a back bumper (albeit with a cut out for an exhaust but getting one on for now is my main priority) also ordered a new driveshaft both are due next week some time Well went to the garage today just to have a look at the work...

Ah this may cause a problem then?The driveshaft that was on the car looks like the one in the link I have an 03 172 hub and not a 03 172 cup hub on my 172 cup What is the major difference between them all?

All sounds a good set up mate S1 16vs are great but i think they are only ideal if you want a Fast road/Track car not a everyday car ;) Sounds like you have all the right ideas and you have a mint Gti to put them on :)
