Yeah I must be honest, I find the replies and his, what appears to be a total lack of support for what's essentially his mistake bewildering. It could've filled a gap in the market quite nicely, but anyone who sees this thread now will no doubt bid it b****cks and hold out for a 2nd hand rs2.

So what you saying then? Lol!

I've got loads of laps from a video camera and my gopro, but I cba to convert the video camera footage from tape to digital and the gopro footage just needs uploading to YouTube. The only footage that's uploaded currently is the one that the majority of people on here will have seen, which is...

Kind words sir. Thanks!

Agreed. Vw are kings of emissions/economy, so maybe they have a fancy system to measure it...........lol! As far as I'm aware though, egt sensors in each branch is the only way to do this. @Dan@SJM (aka terry tibbs - talk to me!) will be able to give more light on this as he's had way more...

As @Mr Burns has said, don't be put off from going to the place just from all the crash footage you see. It truly is an epic place to be for any petrol head. It also boasts one of the most exotic/expensive car parks your likely to see! Drive the circuit with respect and you will be fine. Your...

It's true! Lol!

Lol!

Yeah I noticed that too, very impressive. Safety cell clearly working well. :up:

I'm one of the many that doesn't wear a helmet. Nothing to brag or boast about, I just prefer the laps without one on. I know a lot of people who think I'm crackers because I don't wear one. That place is full of epic cars! I remember being in the cafe at adenau when a pre production veyron...

Believe it or not, mine has been done on a budget! It may not look like that, but it's true!

Just trim the underside skin of your bonnet mate. It's the plenum part of the inlet that will catch, so it's not a huge amount of material to remove. There's no real benefit to the coil on plug setup over the original 1*2 coil pack and leads. The only reason that I've used the cop is from a...

Yeah it needs to be moved over the exhaust manifold slightly, or you could just use some flexible reinforced hose for the filter.

Just the ph1 I think. My bonnet is already de skinned anyway so I don't have any worries.

I suppose I'm the best to answer this! What you've read is correct mate. Tap the 197 head to convert it to the 1*2 belt setup. Be aware though, the tensioner stud is higher up than the 1*2. It doesn't make much odds to the belt tension tbh, but thought it was worth a mention. Everything else is...

Flol!

Is that what you paid for the ph1? Bargain if so!

That looks awesome mate! Good f**king effort!!

Looks spot on to me. If the rear axle hasn't been shimmed, it's one of the straightest I've seen! Lol! Camber wise as well.

They were on a school trip to do some sightseeing I assume. You get a lot of people in cars that are sightseeing as well.

Very lucky to walk away! Yeah will do mate. Be a couple of weeks time I'd imagine, but I'll be in touch. :up:

In the 10+ years that I've been going I've only had 1 close call and that involved a blind entry/exit in a vxr Astra at 100mph and a coach. Full of school kids on a day trip. They were happily waving to me completely oblivious to the fact they could see that my eyes were on stalks and I was...

Standard UK insurance no longer covers the 'ring as they've got wise to it. They haven't done for the past 10 or so years. You can get specialist cover though through some companies.

Armco was at one point in time €60 per mtr to replace at the ring. The Armco is also 3 high in some of the big accident hotspots. So to put it into perspective, the average accident required the replacement of around 60-80mtrs of one tier............... Factor in the cost to fit the Armco, the...

I would imagine they will yes, but unless you can find definitive information regarding the stroke I wouldn't like to say 100%. I'd be 99% confident though, as no one in their right mind would totally redesign what is an already existing engine to that extent.

Ah right ok. I'm in Lichfield now mate. Living it up with the high society and brummie accents. Flol!

Where are you then if Donington is 10 mins down the road?? I used to live in Swadlincote and Donington was only 15-20 mins away.

Ha ha! Nothing! You'll do it out of love. Oh and the fact that your forged engine build won't get any help. Flol

Lol! Now all you've got to do is keep quiet about the combo!

No worries mate, and congratulations on the marriage! Wiring would be coming along better if I could be arsed to go in the garage. Lol! How cool is that about your dad! Kudos mate!
