oooh very funky :D what sort of weight are you gonna be looking at for the whole car? im determined to leave panels and glass as is, just to save money more than anything lol

im just wondering if i have used that hole for the mounting bolt, as they are listed for any mk1 or mk2, so maybe the extra hole is for differently spaced mounting holes on the different mk's? if i have used it im sure i could drill through the side part and mount it there? another thing is...

Re: My mk1 track car blog cheers bud :D yeh will deffo get some vids of it running

well the L shaped plate does that, but i think the spring clips help, so im gonna put them back in :)

i presume this is rear brakes you are talking about? do you mean the L shaped metal plate? as for the clips i left mine off lol not sure if it was a good idea or not :S

i think you may have over simplified the brake fitting procedure there lol :rolleyes:

if you see a silver 106 with anthracite wheels gimme a flash :D

i did it on my 106 can definately tell its reduced engine temps, also looked into coating but camcoat cant gaurantee the paint will stick if the manifold isnt brand new or something like that mine has held up really well. must have had it on for about a year, sprayed it with high temp...

Re: My mk1 track car blog no problem mate :D yeh it does look alot closer to the arb now, but as you say, if i jack up the middle section it clears it nicely, so a hanger may be needed just ordering my sabelt harnesses now, and then i think its time to do some bodywork :clown: :dead:

Re: My mk1 track car blog time will tell if it knocks on the arb though lol

Re: My mk1 track car blog yeh, unless you make your own downpipe from angled sections like i was going to at first?

Re: My mk1 track car blog with difficulty and a bit of luck lol basically the ktec centre section comes with an adjustable flange slotted into the end, what i did was take this out and turn it round, then weld it in place. the bit on the end of the flange that would normally slot into the...

Re: My mk1 track car blog lol seats from jmcmotorsport, as long as your not in a hurry for them they are the cheapest i found, if you want them quickly pay a bit more lol sidemounts are from rallynuts frames are off ebay, shop called ybracing, but they are for a MK1 so just check that...

has something to do with immobiliser iirc as the signal from the decoder ring runs through the uch (that might be wrong though) basically i have 3 ecus in my possession, two end in 240 and one ends in 206, i just wanted to know whether they are all for a phase 1, which i now think they are...

cheers beanie :D so basically i have come to the conclusion that serial numbers that end in 206 A and 240 B are both for a phase 1 but use slightly different software not entirely sure what this software does though lol what age was your 172 beanie? an early or later one?

when the superglue dries lmao
