just springs for the moment, but good quality eibach, may upgrade shocks in the future depends on money...

haha yeh , im sure we would make lots of money if we charged people to see the "triangle" road

From my past experience I'd definitley advise on getting better quality shocks at the same time! You'll be ok for maybe a month or 2 before you start noticing the ride gradually get worse and worse as parts of suspension system are destroyed! lol

Lol, we're making it sound like the 'holy grail' of all roads in the world now!

I live about an hour away from angelsey, if the roads are clear...

Where abouts in Merseyside/Cheshire do you live then? I used to live on the Wirral and now in Chester, so know merseyside & cheshire pretty well!

 

[brightsideteeem]

Live in Prescot mate, and work in Warrington.

 

[Gordz]

Think I've played rugby near prescot, is it close to St Helens at all?

Will have to look out for you when ever I'm around Warrington... usually there for the only reason Warrington was created... Ikea! lol.

 

[brightsideteeem]

yeah mate, haha IKEA, I go past that everyday.

I work in Latchford, nr Stockton Heath.Where I Work

 

[Gordz]

[daz_cymru]

[daz_cymru]

yehh ino ill get round to c.codein them haha

yehh i will do mate, its my birthday sat so might treay myself

 

[brightsideteeem]

do you have any power mods in mind daz?

 

[daz_cymru]

well my front flexi on my exhaust is on its way out , so i might just go for a straight through exhaust, and try and find a cheap sports cat....was also lookin at a remap of somekind....want a bmc/cda intake...and maybe a 4-1 or 4-2-1 exhaust mani if ive still got the car.......

people may say im just wasting money doing up a 1.6 and should just put a 1.8t in it, but wheres the fun in that, its not about having the fastest car in the world, its the enjoyment of improving what you got

 

[brightsideteeem]

deffo mate Im the same haha, Im after 200bhp from my tdi, Doubt I'l reach it, but youve gotta aim for something! haha

 

[daz_cymru]

if your gonna aim , aim high B-)

 

[brightsideteeem]

too right laaa Aiming for close to 180 by the end of the year, oversize injectors, intake manifold and bespoke remap haha
Pushing the standard turbo to the limit like... haha

 

[jonisginger]

Daz, your rear bumper, how did you get the cutout? Did you just get someone to fabricate one?

 

[daz_cymru]

the guy that put my exhaust on done it for me mate

 

[jonisginger]

Did he just make a big hole in essence?

 

[Turf Burner 09]

Nice little car, have basically the same car as you but its a tdi... I want my cupra bumpers lol

 

[daz_cymru]

i think he j8ust cut away the bumper

and dont we all haha

 

[Turf Burner 09]

Right im off to a breakers yard tomorow in search of some lol

 

[kineticz]

Removing the tint from your rear lights is a big improvement I must say Daz, mainly IMO because the car is a nice bright red so the lights in their full colour (red and clear/white) are a perfect match.

Good job

btw I wish I was as chilled out with planning mods as you, I'm always getting anxious and frustrated with what to get next and how I'm gonna afford it lol!
