I was just gunna WD-40 it, wait 30 mins, then smack it one with a hammer.

 

[Triki]

Get the wd on all the bolts today. Give it plenty of time to work in.

Yeah plenty of wd is needed too. NS will fly apart. OS needs a little more.

 

[Jason_E]

Cool thanks for the help!

 

[_Tom]

No worries bud. You'll just have to put a BAM in theyre one day..haha!

 

[MarcoB]

Fvck wd and get some brute force on it. Literally undo the pinch bolt and then hit it with the biggest hammer you can find.

 

[LeeJSA]

Good luck with the mods mate.

How long ago though?

 

[Addz]

Ermm 5 years ago, not that long really

 

[MarcoB]

In the last year they have gone up s**t loads. I was getting quoted 650 quid and now its 1800? Inflation isnt that much!!!

 

[Gally]

 

[Malky]

[MarcoB]

The windows need a slight tint too.

 

[Addz]

Looks well in orange! ^

 

[Malky]

Diamond could do with being a different colour too

312mm on the front?

 

[LeeJSA]

312mm on the front?

Yes mate - got Porker ones to go on next though!!!

 

[Coby.]

Liking Lee's.....Subtle and usable.

I like the Euro scene and Bora's can look very nice but I just think you'll have to throw a lot of money at it....Wheels are so important in that scene and they're not often cheap.

 

[_Tom]

Nice! Let me know when you sell the 312's haha

My bora sails past a mates focus st so should be easily 220+bhp but not upgraded the brakes yet haha

 

[Hixle]

Finally got one then! Nice one bud, not for me as you know but looking forward to see what you do with it.

P.S. Still think you should have got a ZS

 

[Jason_E]

HA

Done the rear coils and drove it home with a nose up, speed boat, "I've stolen some bags of stand stance". Got some funny looks and some thumbs up. Front coils going on tomoz.

 

[MarcoB]

Half a job jay eh.

Pay up you Pikey

EDIT: beaten to it ^^

 

[Jason_E]

I bought a new car, insured it, and got coils + fresh top mounts for it. I don't have the tenner this month

 

[n2x]

Was in a vw club before getting a clio and we had a nice bora there. Here are some pics if you want to make it similar

 

[dmn1989]

hate those wheels ^^^

i actually like the bora's. they can look amazing if done right.

tho to do VAG right you need deep deep pockets

 

[Jason_E]

Scrubbing like a cleaner on crack.

 

[Savi]

Looking good. My mate has a cool bora. Crashed it a few months ago and is rebuilding it. its black and slamming on KWs, Full recaro cream leather interior, sub/amp, components, smoked headlights, black badge. Hes still got a boat load to fit to the car including 19" Carlsons

after the crash

getting it back together

And the cream interior

And its just about to hit 190,000 miles, and still pulls strong with no black smoke!

Yours is looking good slammed, any ideas on rimmage?

 

[Rob]

Wheels are more than necessary, but nice job so far

Make sure you get it done when you have funds

 

[Jason_E]

It grinds on the ARB like a b**ch! LOL

That's less than ideal.

 

[EllD90]

Side view?

 

[LeeJSA]

Convert to an R32/TT setup then or get a different ARB.

 

[Christopher]

Wheels?

Looks like an over-laden taxi.

 

[_Tom]

Side view? I want to see the rear.. That front will have to come up when you get wheels. They have to be spaced to f**k for the tyre to clear the shock.

As for the arb, mine will touch on full lock. I wouldn't drive it if it touches under normal driving. I had a drive shaft pop out because of it on my golf. Almost cost me a new gearbox!
