You can cause a lot of damage to the valves if you are running too lean. Take it to a MOT station or a garage with a air sampler. This will set it up correct. Also if you are running the car at idle for long periods and are not driving the car under normal conditions this can lead to the plugs ...

Looking very good mate. Thats a good collection by anyones standards.

Took mine out today too Lets hope the good weather keeps on a coming

That looks very nice indeed. I personally prefer the BBS over p-slots. They look very good on your car. Once you get the gear selection an brakes sorted it will feel as good as it looks. Good work matey!

Could somebody please help me by dropping there fuse box down and taking a photo of the connections on the rear right. I am focusing on the right hand side where there are black/yellow and then black only connections. The black/yellow as far as I can make out are ignition positive. I need to know ...

Looks well mate. There were some nice cars there.

I can finally post a picture now I have got it up to good standard. Thanks to all that have helped me with sourcing parts and help. I look forward to meeting you all. ;) http://gallery.mac.com/the_reamer/100388/GTX%20042/web.jpg?ver=12678153380001 http://gallery.mac.com/the_reamer/100388/GTX%20045 ...

That looks like a Scirocco should, low mean and simply. Did you use stock shocks with your Eibach springs? If so what is the ride quality like?

Like you say. I go by what I know to be good. I too find the sponge applicator very good for an even coat which is important. I may try another product when my current batch runs out. I have never tried the DoDo range so I may try them.

Thinking long term what do you recommend? I used these products because I had them and they do work I am always open to advise. Every day is a school day.

I am. Lol.

Just a few pointers for a great result. 1. Clean the car with Meguiars gold class car wash. 2. Meguiars Clay bar system (or any other clay bar )one panel at a time to ensure you do not become impatient. 3. Stage 1 Meguiars deep crystal. 4. Stage 2 Meguiars Polish. This must be spread thinly and ...

I have just been down this road myself. I ended up with an alpine 103BT. This has built in Bluetooth hands free so no geeky bits. It has an iPod connection which I put in the glove box out the way. It also has an aux line in on the front and a USB for flash drives. It will play mp3 CDs and best of ...

That looks very very nice Ryan. I have never actually seen a MK1 in person. I look forward to seeing this in the future. Well done matey.

Cheers matey. They really make the car. Very very pleased.

Got my car back from AutoMark in Stockesley. It is a different car now. Idle is 850 solid with no dips or lumpiness. Drives very smooth and starts first time on the button. Very pleased. I have started the bodywork now. There was some very small splashes of white paint all over the car like a fine ...
