Yeah, those were the days! :D It was a great car, and still could be.....just a shame that old **** hit me. Still, at least he's had his licence revoked now so he wont be doing that again! And its hard to take a pic of the boot floor, as the impact has somehow crimped the carpet into the front...kin...
Well, it's a sad day but im finally admitting that i need to let my beloved two go. I've had her since August 2005 when she was imported for my by JDI, coming over with a lovely new coat of paint, and was looking stunning. She has been very well looked after, and in the years i have owned her has be...
I know i was a premium member for a number of years, however when i go to upgrade my membership it states that there is an error that will be fixed shortly.
The MRD skirts are as rare as hens teeth. They were made by a very small company called "mental racing developments" in liverpool, but i dont know if they are still around.
Thanks mate, i got a decent settlement in the end after emailing lots of research, however i still have the car and i think its a worthy project for someone if they want it. Apart from the rear end, its in superb condition. I just dont have the time to repair it :( I cant break it myself as i dont w...
Hello, Its been a while since i last posted on here, but some of you may remember me. My Rev 3 tubbys been hit in the rear by an old gimmer, and its been declared a total loss. The only reason they say is because new parts are nearly impossible to source from Japan. Ive found plenty of spares online...
Ahhh i see, well i work in Chorley but i always end up around that area when im out on a drive! Im not loving these petrol prices, i need another mortgage, just for my car!!!
You might see me flying through Bolton from time to time, but it depends where abouts! Im usually at the horwich end. Ive seen a nice few knocking about near to walkden though, always near the motorway!
4mm is a pain to get hold of from most places. They usually sell 3mm or 5mm, which is the problem i faced when fitting my boost controller. I ended up going to an industrial park and finding an industrial compresser and installer place....they had stuff up to 200psi which cost me a mere 40p a metre!...
From experience i would say allow a lot more time than you would expect. If you are still using a stock exhaust system, then i would say an angle grinder is probably required, as some of the sections near to the back box will be very rust, and the nuts will be so corroded you cant get a socket on. I...
You need to have 1.6mm accross the middle 2/3rds of the width of the tyre. In other words, you are allowed 1/6th either side, but its is the centre part that is most important. I wouldnt take any notice of tread wear indicators, they are only an indicator. Tread depth varies from country to country,...
No, the G model was around 118bhp. The rev 1-2 were 158bhp and were either called UK GTi16, or JAPAN G_ltd, and the rev 3 was 174bhp. This was the same no matter if it was a jap import or uk.
Gti16v UK = G-ltd JPN
