Auto vaux can do a rad for £80 plus shipping
Need to decide if I am keeping it!
Spending to much doing it up as nice car for someone else

I have been thinking about fitting a 2.0 turbo the 1.8 is just to slow for my liking

I know it would be cheaper to buy a turbo one already but the body is in really good condition on this one!

I just bought all new powerflex bushes for it also, seems a bit of a waste to do all the bits maintaining the car and then selling to get a turbo

So what is needed to fit a zlet of lel/leh into the coupe?

 

[evocarlos]

engine bay loom, engine + gearbox, new down pipe ,ecu with fob and receiver and code , airbox lid and lots and lots of glue
all the other bit are just standard mk4 connections from engine to body

chris at csautos sells engine packages or you can pick them up in other locations

Just smashed my rear bloody quarter in!
Well p**sed off!
My f**king neighbour can't park in a space so keeps leaving their car in the road,so I ended up catching a bollard whilst trying to miss their car

 

[evocarlos]

ahh feck
much damage ?

 

[robo22sri]

Not good

 

[evocarlos]

mate thats devastating

 

[robo22sri]

I spent £500 on some split rims the car today!

I am p**sed!

 

[Matt]

f**k! That's not pretty Rob

 

[robo22sri]

It would of been so much better if it was just the panel and not the arch

The arch is Donald Ducked

Hammer time at the weekend

 

[Sjdickso]

Oh dear that's painful.

 

[vocky]

ouch

 

[Matt]

We have a similar problem with a neighbour blocking our drive way, as they don't have their own, so they park on the opposite side of the road to ours. Both us and next door have a right problem getting in and out. Next door have reversed into his car several times now

 

[robo22sri]

I am going to hit her car and say oh sorry! But your not ment to be parking there

 

[robo22sri]

Started looking at the arch

Pushed the top dent out a little bit, a friend thinks a dent man will get it out and it has not damaged the paint

The lower dent I have started to beat back, will tidy it a little more and then fill and spray the arch to the quarter shape

 

[MikeS]

rear arch will be tricky
rear quarter i just rub it down and filler it

 

[Daz]

imo that needs to be fettled quite a bit... gonna be a visit to the bodyshop

 

[robo22sri]

The arch will get filled the rear quarter should be ok its not very deep

I want to stay away from painting the whole rear quarter
