the old fan came out a doddle without taking the bumper off. a few minor adjustment had to be made to the housing for the twin fan as the connector for the wires to the motor didn't quite fit. so a small bit had to be cut off the housing to make it fit snug. also a good clean around the area of the radiator is needed.

last week i received my aero wipers and strut brace. also stripped the back out :)

not as simple as i thought twin fanning :( just as i went to spray the fans after spraying the housing i realise that the vtr fans are built the opposite way round to the vts fans. so instead of blowing the air onto the rad an the engine bay it will be blowing towards the front bumper. so 2 vts or gti fans are needed despirately.

thinking spraying the show cage either red or black tomoz seen as theres no point in doing the fans now till i can get hold of 2 vts ones

anyone got a vts fan for sale? realised that the vtr ones are buil the opposite way round

looking nice

cheers :y:

cars looking real nice mate. keep up the good work

Getting there buddy, keep it up.

just got round to uploading the pics of the twin fan housing being sprayed. still waiting to get vts or gti fans to put in it.

Just found the pictures on my phone of when i sprayed the centre console. Getting it masked up was a bit fiddley but worth it in the end :) finished product was sprayed in wicked red to match the colour of the car. i sanded the whole unit down appart from the bits that i wasn't going to spray with 800 grain if i remember rightly, then i primed it and it then took 2 coats of colour and then finally lacquered ..........

anyone got any red carpets for sale?

still waiting for the twin fan situation to be sorted thinking a pro comp induction kit or similar and new exhaust system :)

sadly its time for my vtr to go wanting a bit more power and fancy a 106 gti

any one interested???? offers welcome

carpet got a good clean and a shampoo.

i like it danny we will have to meet up get sum pictures some time were did you get your vts fan from ?

yea deffo :) same lad that i got my gti gearbox from near sunderland

great progress thread. think i might take some of those ideas and apply it to my saxo :P btw, u selling the induction kit? if so, im interested in buying. :y:

both the vtr and gti look good:y:

gti sounds beautiful

thanks for the comment! hopefully in the near future i can get a bit more work done to the gti :)

big update with the pics. couple of months ago was on the way to work when the engine went bang and the piston rings had shattered not done any other damage though as i wasn't going very fast. decided rater than strip the engine down i'd drop another one in then rebuild the knackerd one when its out. also popped in a brand new rad. because costing so much its slowed everything down that i was going to do with the car. bit of a pic at the end to show what i want the car to look like. anyway a few pictures for you guys .......
