Picked car up tonight from garage and unfortunately the nissens radiator I bought off a mate had an hole in the centre of it so that's no good.
So put the standard one back on and decided to put a new thermostat on as well as a new temp sensor and these are known to fail.
Also had my door strap fitted so no more clicking and now the door stays open when you open it.
Will be going for a 1.5 diesel radiator now as they are bigger so will keep things cooler and will be upgrading my cooling fan to a twin fan.

to use the 1.5D raidator you must relocate the ECU (if its the standard one) as the expansion take sits there... or get a custom slim one but that will be costly...

Oh right crap never realised that mate might have to look at something else that will be a straight fit. Cheers for the thumbs up on this mate.

Cool sounds like a good idea considering the vts and gti don't come with any but am I not right in saying the VTRs come with cup holders?

Cheers.
Just to add this is connected to my stereo just can't see the USB cable.
I drilled a hole in the console underneath the holder and ran the USB cable underneath the console and up to the back of the stereo.

Not much to update yet apart from a new head unit I got.
Thought I would trat myself to one before Christmas and considering I've just fitted the iPhone holder in the car I needed to have a unit that I could control my iPhone through so went for a Sony that has iPhone compatable Bluetooth hands free music streaming etc.
Very pleased with it and that's about it till next year guys.

Well not updating this for a while.
Not really done much at min except for putting a rear wiper and motor on and just bought an omp corsia steering wheel with boss.
Sure everyone knows what they look like but will stick some pics up when fitted.
Next on my list is to get my dash flocked.
