Started work on it this weekend.

Washed, inside an out interior detailer carpet and seat shampoo. Took the idle vavle off cleaned up and de greased the engine bay.
Also got a bmc cda induction kit in and fitted.

Next on the list new mid section on the ehxaust to connect to the kam racing baxbox thats on as it sounds shoddy and is restricting it, then a full service and a new passenger side drive shaft, also be ordering some wind deflectors tow straps aero blades, basically alot of cosmetics to get it looking tidy as possible. Heres a few pics.

First day in the road already got some problems.

Driveshaft definatly needs replacing.
Driver side rear caliper sticking (not diagnosed yet)
Not idling properly.

So i called up the man to get all this fixed and a full service sorted to get it running nicely.

All this costing me £180 BARGAIN !!

Got a new amp on order to go with my jbl sub i nbought of this site and then im well away.

Update! decided to tidy up my calipers but rain has stopped me half way through.

Before
http://img.tapatalk.com/5cec83ba-9cd9-8960.jpg

After
http://img.tapatalk.com/5cec83ba-9cf5-6327.jpg

Ill probably have to sand it down slightly when it fully dries again few rough parts.

Decides to sand my rear toe hook down possibly do that red too but might just go for black keep it tidy
http://img.tapatalk.com/5cec83ba-9d47-b57f.jpg

also if anyone is intrested im not to keen in 106 gti leathers but they came with the car and im more than likely going to track slag this vts at some point, if anyone wants to swap buckets recliners or what evers on offer let me know.

Thinking of selling up and buying a motorbike only had it a few months its been fun but i want something even cheaper to run as i sont really use it at all. Nothing wrong with it all the niggly problems when i bought it have been fixed.

A full magnex exhaust with de cat has been fitted.

Possibly going to sell for £1250.

Any intrest welcome

8th July 2012, 14:57

Chasevts
8th July 2012, 15:44
It was £650 but came with 6 months tax so i paid £800 ish. Exhaust was dodgy top mounts needed doing wheel bearing done. Also new rear pads. All the other stuff is in my thread.

Oil light on..? i wouldnt ignore it.

Oil light is probs on because the engine isn't running and there will be no oil pressure.


Nice car for the price mate i got a soft spot for 2 tones.

Chasevts
9th July 2012, 05:45
Yeh oil light is on because the engines not on just electrics try it in ur own car....
