cheers chap, get over here pull your finger out and do it for me ;) yeah if i have chance i might do it again next weekend :)

my effort

yeah i best put some of those pics in the dirty car thread lol

i saw a magazine test one of these a few years ago on an MR2 and it made more power without it fitted, and get this: when it was fitted it made more power turned off than turned on! lol

cheers matey :) i will do it again soon, te roof is still glazed even after a few turns with the PC, so im going to look at what i can do about that, though what did make me alot happier was iv always had a section of flat paint around the passenger door lock/handle, as if the laquer had peeled...

+1 lol

id have the 182, simply as its newer and a good price

only if you dont run it over idle tho ;)

just turned on 123,100 miles on the way home this evening chap :)

i will get some better pics tomorrow :)

if its on the longlife servicing, its either 0w30 or 5w30 thats to vw's spec, if it is on time and distance (lamens speak normal 10k/1 year servicing) then its a 10w40 semi synthetic, exactly what depends from dealer to dealer, let me know if you need any more info chap i work for VW

normally my cam takes really good pics, must have a dirty lense :( thanks for the nice comments chaps :approve:

well i think its as dirty as its ever been, so on my weekend off i spent it at work :rolleyes: lol so this is how it was yesterday: oh and CS FTW! lol : I washed it yesterday, then left it in the workshop overnight to properly dry through out, and went back in...

agreed, my first valver had done 167k when i sold it and i gave it death everywhere and it was chipped so it revved to 7700rpm lol, give it a good service, and as long as the oil pressure guage shows signs of life then i wouldnt worry mate lol

ha lol so will you be doing the bottom end also?

oh and once i didnt have the socket to hand so i used an old door handle that my dad had taken off a door in our house, the quare end fitted just right lol

mine doesnt take a socket, mines a square hole, would have though the ph2 the same? anti clockwise to undo

yes very big! doing it yourself under 2k if your lucky, most companies will charge around 5k

depending on which side mate really, the n/s you have to drain the gearbox oil, i replaced my n/s one, though i did it myself so no labour charge, took about an hour to do, and the shaft cost me £90

definatly go with genuine renault filter chap, and there not hard, just fiddly as you have to try to get your hands down the front of the engine lol

and how low too lol

best colour ;) lol whats she lowered on mate?

i wish i could mate but i cant :( though i will hopefully hget some pics of mine this weekend, will be interesting to see as mines done 123,000 miles now

i would imagine yes mate, i think its only the cup models that have different suspension, im sure someone will be wrong to back me up/correct me lol

ultimately if you want a faster car then changing the exhaust is usually nessesary, and with that you will get a louder noise but its kinda become compulsary to do as one of the first things when modifying a car, iv only got a louder system on mine because mine broke and it was half the price...

didnt realise they need rebuilding that quick chap, i thought it was longer for some reason lol, so what needs to be changed at that miles or it is a case of strip down,check and see?

basically its classed as polluting, the same as you cant pour oil down the drain

bloody hell blast from the past lol, most are just straight through pipes, cracking exhaust back in the early 90s lol

did the head gasket need doing mate? seems alot of work for what iv read it didnt need doing

yes the std system is 2inch iirc, most people say go for a 2.5inch for a 'performance gain' but god knows if thats right lol
