Had a blast out Sunday with some mates, one of which is on here. Exact same mods as me except his isnt mapped yet. Had a little run down a private bypass :whistle:



Awesome bit of road, wide enough to be a dual carriageway but only one lane each direction, comes in handy!

is that clutch and uprated one mate? cars looking good :)

Yeh its for a golf vr6 mate, bolts straight on if i change the dual mass flywheel to a abf/g60 flywheel. Getting hold of one and getting alistair to lighten and balance it for me then thatl be one of my last mods i reckon! Cheers Paul, you picking your engine up this week?

Lol i just had money to spend elsewhere first :p. Whiteline and spacers next month if i have the cash

Get spacers noowwwww only 50 quid! I still need a rarb :(

was against a cupra with all the same mods on as me except the map. Seen one roll 195hp with less mods on standard map so should be around that figure at the mo until payday then i think hes getting the same bloke to map his haha

got to go home and pick up my high flow mani though :(

cant wait to get it back on the road, you ordered the wot box yet?

allisters had to balance my new clutch so just waiting for that :)

Nah not yet, going to leave it for abit i think, until the clutch and flywheel are in etc

My mates was like this when we fitted new wingmirror caps :( think the spring inside just gets seized! Might be worth spraying some penetrating fluid or something inside and letting it do it's magic! Need to see if mine are seized tbh!

Haha I'm sure you would :( I'd love a diff! Sure it won't be long till yours is back :) rolling toad day saturday, see what it makes :D

thats what was thinking, hopefully now i shouldnt have to split the box or take out the engine out for a long time :)

what benafit does balancing the clutch do?

Just another rotating part. It's not critical but will stop any extra vibrations etc should in theory spin up better too but it's just alistair been a perfectionist really haha

You popped in to have a look at progress this week?

Haha shame your not coming to the rr day! Wouldn't mind having a bash against the ed30 up darlo road either see how it does haha

Not surprised the ctr driver pooped himself, he will only be used to the torque of a food blender haha

Braided lines are off on tomorrow, then rarb, clutch and flywheel and that will be me done with mods I think. Just gonna enjoy it after that and get saving :D
