Re: Pictures od the Peugeot I like that. Engine shot? I want to see if those feeds are "all show no go".

Looks bloody brilliant mate, love LY 182's on turini's, winner.

Very nice mate, my only negative comment is the alloys, on which we agree, are gash. lol! Love the colour and its a good spec, my friend had the golf version of this, bought the petrol (1.8t) and now wants the diesel back! Apart from sounding like an ice cream van these are mint. :)

Holy s**t Danny! You can't blame this one on the long drive over to me though eh? ;) Hope you're alright mate, just bed rest for the injuries?

All systems are vaccumed etc before filling anyways aren't they mate? Not really much chance of finding one on a car, this one is coming from a decent breakers with a good rep, and if it makes you happy, I'll keep it in my airing cupboard for a week ;)

Jeeebus woman..... Door handles - Door card off, there are two 13mm (iirc) nuts holding it on, remove the rods that the handle pulls to open the door and these nuts, should just come out. Back bumper strip - Jus clips out, may be easier to take bumper off so you can lever the clips from the...

Re: clean or replace the TDC sensor ? where is it what does it look like? how do you You're not a full member so can't access the guides mate.

My signal isn't sneek's, mine's going back next week due to have generally awful signal.

Phone number? LOL jk.

Beautiful, home mechanics just got serious y0. ;) Cheers mate.

I've already bought one mate. Just need to know how it disconnects, whether its a sealed system, or whether it has bolted joints ;)

Quick bump on this, does anyone know off hand how the condenser is connected? i.e is it bolted to the surrounding pipe work or is it all one piece so am I going to have to cut the existing off and have it braised?

I have a friend who may be able to help you out, if you want his email, PM me and I'll get you two talking :)

Belts on the 8v, easy! Think yourself lucky mate. :)

Interesting, and I'm not sure what else I have to say about it tbh. Good thread title, mind.

"The" car of CS for me. Noice, photo's aren't great mind, iPhone can do better ;)

I went with TAF mate, but I'm sure someone will answer shortly.

Hello and welcome, plenty of members over your way.

When you go to DL app's or songs or whatever? If so, that's standard, just iTunes way of checking it's really you.

Seriously? Sandpaper will smooth them, you just need to start with a quite harsh grit and work your way down to a paintable grit, 800/1200 or something. I've heard of most people start at around 100grit or so, if you find this won't take the pattern out of the plastic, then get harsher, it's...

There's not actually a definative one around, but as I'm currently doing some bits with the guides I may get in contact with some of the well known faces on here and set about making one up for us. Sorry I can't be of more help, but cheers for the idea.

If I were you, I'd have a go at CC'ing the plastics myself, due to them being quite small in surface area (height wise), you could probably do a very nice job. If you fail, go sand them back in about 10 mins and then matt black until you can have them done properly. It's 100% in the prep.

Glad you sorted it, VW suspension is weird man, when I first that I was like WTF!!? Get some wheels on it and get it CC'd, stop tarting about with roof racks etc. They'll make the biggest difference by far, IMO of course. :)

I concur, the "Red Zed" looks amazing.

Hey there mate, from those who have had it done, most really recommend it. I intend to have mine done soon (when funds allow) combined with a remap there are often some good results :) JMS offer this service, but they are a fair way from you.

Cambelt snapped on mine, and I had it fixed, went on forever after that tbh. As Danny says, may not be quick, but they're very good engines.

I was about to post that you git! When I found it out about my old 1.2 8v it really annoyed me.

Despite having never met the Fred, I've read more good reviews and got more solid, definitive advice off of him than any other person on here. The bloke is obviously VERY good at what he does :)

None taken mate, I'm no mecahnic, I was just curious, as the car still (sort of) drives fine, so I just thought changing the wheel back could be a temp fix until I've fitted the top mounts. (as its seriously annoying to drive off centre) Also, are you still selling those washers to stop the...

I'll ring you indeed Mike, if only for you to laugh at me and my epic mechanical knowledge :rasp:
