O yeah I see it now, he's right John you want to get them swooped over ASAP before they start to wear unevenly.

Im sure it would of came up on the MOT if they were wrong..

Saxo passed it MOT today with one advisery!

Exhaust noisy [7.1.4]

Essh ;)

Eat your heart out VAG owners.

Since when do mot testers check of your discs are on the right way round :homme:

How can you when you cant even see the grooves?

Because mines after a certain year, cant remember. Its ridiculas tbh man..

congrats :drink:
least you wernt faced with a 700 quid repair bill :panic:

that sucks man :(.......

But good news on the MOT, i'll be keeping an eye on this project thread ;)

What the hell, blackie you've confused me, them discs are on fine lol. Sat here thinking how they are possibly wrong!

and grats on the MOT :)

Id been on Pistonheads looking for a new motor if i had that repair bill. ;)

Cheers man.

It does! And cheers. Shes now worth chucking some coin at (imo). :oops:

Me too lol.

Cheers. :A:

haha i see how optimistic you were on it passing!
couldnt blame you tbh

I was just waiting it out really haha.

Total cost of MOT; £29.50.

:P

mate dont rub it in! you know how much of a sore subject this whole MOT thing is :wall: :P

Sorry. ASW over now. :homme:

Next inline after my holiday etc this month is 4 new decent tyres, alloy refurb and polarsed wheel and locking bolts.

Next [no specific date on the other stuff as of yet] :/

Kam racing gear linkages.
Poss new Supersprint mani #ijustlikenew
Bigger front calipers to fit under the S wheels
braided brake lines

Decent panel filter - ideas?

Maybe lowering but i have no idea what id go for. I like how it sits with the nose slightly lower then the front but want it the same but a tad lower. :/

Doubt il get it all as quick as others have done but i will..

good lad ;)
and maybe go lower on the back by 40mm and the front by 60mm?

Or go 40mm down all round from what it is now.

You'll keep the front down look, it'll look miles better, and it won't inconvenience you in any way.

R.E. brakes, 283mm's will go under S wheels ;)

;)


Cheers Rey I'll have a search whats good etc. I dont want to spend a silly amount as its only going to be a road car but i still wouldnt mind some beefier brakes and it a tad lower then it is.

Are they off 406s? Really clueless with suspension/brakes atm so will have to have a read on them..

40mm would be fine! And then just get the torsion bar lowered so the rear is slightly higher still.

Tbf I had 266mm's off of a 206 GTi and they were by far better than the OEM brakes.

Seen this at scs yesterday and it looks real nice! Very clean, a load better than mine tbh.

Only thing id say is to get your wheel balancing weights put on the inside.

Just seen this! Thanks. :oops:

I need 2 new front tyres anyway so when i get them changed they will be going on the inside, might ask them to do the same to the rears as they do look god awful. Sorted my wind deflector issue ou! i should have my new ones in the post tommorow. Monday the latest. Oh and i broke my passenger wing mirror. Went to fold it and and i heard a nasty crack i thought nothing of it until i went to fold it out again. It flaps like a old saggy tit :homme: Looking at it, it must of took a shunt at some point.

Trolled ebay seen some none genuine Citroen ones and came across a genuine Citroen one. Now i had no intention of paying the "buy it now" at £25 + £5.95 postage :fcuk: So after work this morning i put a cheeky bid of £9 in. Min was £6 went to bed for 3ish hrs to found i won it.:A:

£11.95 posted for a new mirror anyone!? ;)

Pic of my car at SCS on Sunday;

So i got my new mirror in the post... still no deflectors. Dick heads!



5 mins later my new mirror is on;





Cool.

looks like alot of camber there :panic:

Dude it was carrying alot of weight The boot was stuffed. Also whilst i had everyone in the backseats etc the wheel was no where near the arch wall lol. I did check.

So its fine. ;)

ahh thats all good then home slice :homme:

Time to sell and move on?? ;)

It was the first thing i checked when i loaded the car up that weekend mate.

If it touched it then id known it was fubarred.

Cheers for your concern though homies. :hug:

:P :oops:

haha il bare you in mind when the time comes though.

Good shit :D cars looking. Very Nice n clean! Just need to lower it now .P

Its my cack wage thats made my thread so boring man.

Want

Kamracing gear linkages
New Superpsrint mani
Gaz gold coilovers - I aint going much lower as i do carry passengers and full boots from time to time "why go for coilovers and not a fixed height?" well i might fancy a change without forking out for new springs etc.
Whilst the above gets done i want powerflex wishbone bushes wacking on. May aswell whilst its all off. :homme:
New panel filter
GTi6 calipers - was going for 406 brembos but thats a overkill i recon even though they look much better :S
braided brake lines
--
Poss Speedlines, ive seen a couple of sets like but hey ho - the vts wheels im keeping if i do by a set. ;)
----

Cambelt and clutch - Valeo should be done this year then thats it for a good while i recon!

Keep her clean. ;)

Like i said my wage is shite and im saving as well so.. but the above will get done.

Hell yeah plans sound ace:) can vouch for the gaz coilovers , fucking brilliant handling :D but plans sound brilliant can't wait to see it all come together :)

It will! just taking me longer then everyone else :(

After Trax the braided pipes and GTi6 calipers and Kamracing gear linkages will ticked off the list. Then new clutch/cambelt then save for the coilovers/mani.

+ im anal as fook so i make sure everything is right. :D

Yeah cant wait to get the coilovers.

Once im done she should handle well, sit nice (not after stance).

Engine wise i wont be going down the itb/cam/turbo route so sorry about that. Its staying as it is.

nice one :D
and mehh engine wise theyre still plenty quick enough to boot around :D
but i went in a mates gti, cammed ( ph4s ) stripped etc and fuck me it was fast!

but as said plans sound good and cant wait to see it all come together!

K11 turbo you massive homeo

Lol, naww.

2 new tyres and wipers to come tommorow for the front as my 2 atm arnt legal ;). Some might say "should of gone toyo sir" thing is both have good reviews so i thought id try these first. innit

Rainsport 2's to replace w.e pish thats on atm
And Bosch Aero flat wipers. All 3 to replace my Tesco jobbys

Toyo's are pish. Rainsports are a good choice.

What happened to keeping it standard....knew it wouldn't last long!!

How much you pay for the Toyo's mate? And where from?

fancy some very nice gti leathers john boy? 150 beans

probs the cleanest non airbag set youll find these days :)

Mine are minters to ;) but for 150 is a bargin i payed 230 for mine

They're not toyo's dude, and try camskill for cheap prices
