UPDATE

Soooooo, some shots i took from my spirited drive to littlehampton! hope you enjoy!!! a few new changes of course... R32 alloys, carbon rear badge, private number plate! miltek exhaust system and the hybrid turbo! And to answer the few asking, i have 232BHP and 340 torque, but it's going back to AmD in a week or so to get my SfS pipes and the said they will bump it up to early 240's!

A tricky shot

sounds awesome! i have my front speaker wired to an amp too. It's just about right for me. only thing i have to do now is find something to fit in that rectangle gap above the amp...

Get a big gold plated fuse/holder....should be just the right size and will look all sexy.

Car is looking amaznig mate. Good job! Love those wheels

Very good thread, I like what you've done with the car bet it kicks up some dust with the hybrid turbo!

looking so much better with the R32 wheels on mate, vast improvement over the last ones.

Cars looking good!

UPDATE!!!

cleaned the car today! thorough job... spent 8 hours on it! spending that amount of time out side cleaning the car attacts attention. And if i hear ' After you've done that you can clean mine' one more time i swear ill sponge someone!
Anyways! i used alot of products. but ill list them in order of usage.

.Megs wash and wax shampoo.
.Megs Smooth Surface clay bar kit.
.Megs Scratch X and Turtle wax black scratch.
.Turtle wax Black box.
.Megs Carbuna Wax.
.Megs Hot Shine tire spray.

I took a few before i got going, as you can see the paint was in need of attention after the winter's abuse.

Soooo clay bar first ! this is really good stuff especially if you've never clayed your car before. It gets dirt off that you didnt even know was there! i tend to do this every 6 months or less just to keep it fresh.

Soooo as you can see the elements have definately impacted the paintwork.

Next up i went over all the scratches with my scratch care products.

before scratch repair.

After scratch repair.

Detailing with the Black box detailer was interesting.... it seemed to smear quite badly and didnt come up very well but i carried on so it would compliment the Black Box carbuna wax.

So after detailing i poured on the Black box wax.

Final coat of Megs carbuna wax!

Hard days work cleaning!!!!!!!!

After i spent the next 2 hours cleaning the interior! all in all im pretty happy with the job and it should last a couple months lets hope!

Yup, inline with the live.

Are you competing with me for the cleanest car in Reigate?

I just had a look at page 1 and saw that you're using the fixed drop Ultra GT kit from Weitec, rather than the HiCon GT coilover kit. The drop looks spot on actually, how do you rate the the performance of them?

Lol! im driving at like 20mph so i don't get it dirty! And the wietec Ultra GT kit is ok, keeps the car rock steady, but that's the problem... It isn't a very comfortable set up! Looks good though! BTW any meets any time soon?!

 

[JamJay]

Slow driving is awesome, I'm like a granny and I go extra wide to avoid puddles. I think more than anything, I hate the tyre gel that sprayes up the sides!

There's a London meet this Saturday I think although heavy rain is predicted which means i'm not going

When do you ever go? LOL!

 

[JayFR150]

It's raining

 

[JamJay]

When do you ever go? LOL!

When ever there is sunshine/dry roads, which is never! If Darren can pick a day that's free from snow, rain, hurricanes and earthquakes, i'll be there

QUICK UPDATE

Think im going ahead and purchasing a Gizzmo boost controller. http://www.gizzmoelectronics.co.uk/ It has some very exciting functions such as an adjustable boost management for each gear! plus the usual high and low boost options. My friend's RS KA has it installed and i was so impressed. Just looking through ebay now trying to find one going cheap... It really makes the most of the turbo, so i hope it goes as well for me!
