Its Back And Very Shiny ***now fitted***

[orangemuffin]

Picked it up today. Cant wait to get it on the car but the whole engine bay needs cleaning and de greasing first.

The question is do i swap them over myself or get the pro's to do it ?

 

[Brummy]

That looks lovely, Dan.. will look really smart in a clean bay.

mmmm,shiney!!

 

[suj]

that's amazing mate, and only for £30? i want it done now lol

 

[orangemuffin]

Its awesome !.....i love it....i am sure when its on it will be the best thing i have done.

Just dont know if taking the inlet off and fitting this will be a big job for me. I am gash at things like that.

 

[suj]

you've got another inlet on at the moment don't you? just undo all the bolts to take the plastic piece off (that holds the HT leads) then undo the throttle body, and undo the inlet (disconnecting any cables attached) and put yours back on....not so simples lol

 

[orangemuffin]

Will have a go tuesday then me thinks.

 

[crezz]

look swish mate,, only £30 thats cheap, looking flash

 

[orangemuffin]

I know...ive seen polished one's go on ebay for £90....infact i saw a normal golf 16v one with rocker go on ebay for £55....

The place is tiny, right in deepest darkest black country......the 2 chaps are proper grumpy brummies....lol

 

[Brummy]

Oi..... easy..........

 

[orangemuffin]

haha, you know what i mean.

 

[EnGbudd]

i know what you mean (i think brummy is one of them ) lol
i might be getting that address off you one day mate (when i can be without an inlet for a week lol)
did it take the full 7days? or was it quicker?

 

[orangemuffin]

Well i droped it off on saturday and then called thursday to say that i wouldnt be able to pick it up till tuesday and they said they would get it done for today for me. I dont think its a matter of how long it takes just more what other work they have on. Its a very odd place.

 

[suj]

thats ok then, i might ask when i got the money if there's anyway to do it quicker, as i will not be able to drive my car (unless i get another inlet, which i totally doubt lol)
might have to pay more or something?

 

[OllieL]

Ha yeah it is a bit of an odd set up down at raindows isnt it!!
If they answer the phone its an achievement!!
Can't knock their work for the price though, its reeet good!!
Looks amazing mate, sort us out with the standard one to borrow for a few weeks , can take it in when i get my other wheels done

[orangemuffin]

yep, no probs dude.....Was thinking about popping to a scrap yard and seeing if i could pick up another maybe as an experiment.

going to start the cleaning process tomorrow.

 

[OllieL]

If you see any pic a rocker cover or 2 up

Will look a treat mate!!

Ollie

 

[orangemuffin]

yes, i think there is one in brownhills but not 100%....i do know of one just off the chester rd.

 

[OllieL]

Nah mate, not really that knowledgeable about scrappies in the area - ask suj he is local and might be able to shed some light on the subject
