although seriously, if you're going to put a bucket in anyway. you might as well give them a harness too?

the number plate must be worth a fair bit too!

for passengers? normal seats covered in vaseline then :rasp:

why not have harnesses on the buckets?

you have gone from a total output of 60w powering speakers rated at a total of 20w to a headunit rated at 200w powering 970w worth of speakers, it's going to be quieter!

thats a lot of money for the throttle body! i had one not long ago, i'm sure it was £170!!

no, my parents garden, i'm just about to go sailing for the afternoon, just in case you weren't jealous yet!

it's not big, and it's not clever! :rasp:

i've seen a red one round here a couple of times too.

to be honest, i think most people on here would say use 15's. but if you keep asking about there are people who do compete their cars. i think holister is one. another definately is tony hunter. if you keep looking someone will have a proper answer for you.

or rather, a 14 wont clear the caliper!

i don't think a 15 will fit over the calipers, i know the cup racers run 15's from the factory if that is any help?

surely these will make the car less compliant on poor roads? don't get me wrong, i want some for track work. but they must be more nervous and less comfortable day to day?

obviously not, he carried on driving. :rasp:

for the suspension you should have a look at the kit middo is selling! if it is the one from the lad car, it cost £1600! he is looking for £300 i think. it's proper competition stuff.

have you tried them hot, might make a difference?

i honestly don't think you will notice any difference to the way the car drives with the magnecor leads, however they are i believe MUCH more resistant to heat than the renault ones and so will last longer without going brittle. the only thing to watch for is that aparently the 172 leads are...

i know a lot of people use the porsche wheels on vw's, try calling jabbasport, awesome gti, c&r or prabably venom themselves. there will be someone at one of them with the answer, and in my experience they are all very helpfull.

mine definately seemed more torquey after i had this done, but for mine they shortened the original cat. i dont know what it was like before, but now the flanges are straight on to the cat itself. i'm in france this week but i can get some pics when i'm back if it will help?

i know it's coming back in to scotts soon. not sure what for though. i'll try to get some vids when it does.

absolutely, thats why i said go trophy. they are pretty rare too, plus there seem to be a few for sale at the moment.

don't bother with the 182 cup, it's only the 172 that was lightweight. of the two your looking at i'd go trophy all day. saying that though, i'd probably have a 172 cup over any of them.

i've sat in that car, when it was supercharged. the noise it makes is obscene!

rule #221. before applying a ring sticker both car and driver must have completed a lap together.

you might get away with that, you need to measure the clearance as it is now. might be worth taking the car to a decent garage and asking too?

^ i've just realised that too! with 25mm pcd converters the fronts should be 10mm out and the rears should be 8mm out.

i'm the same, i think my car has about 1 degree. which makes the car much less nervous, and easier to drive smoothly. if i want it to turn in sharper i just have to turn the wheel a bit further. also since i drive it every day, on the roads where i live it would be unbearable with much more than...

so, assuming the wheels clear the arches ok. you can use spacers if you need to move them out a bit. just remember you'll need longer bolts too!

what offset does the golf run?

thats what i mean, the best example is the number of people who overtake you, but then slow down. using the cruise really highlights that!
