S needs a new wheel bearing and battery before i can sell it really, only two problems that i had last year with it! gotta get another 12 months of MOT too. i don't plan on ever driving it again so it's gotta find a new home

I ain't making a comment on that! lol, never met the girl so can't comment..

Seriously selling up completely? Bad days mate, suppose you will be bringing out the BMW 3 Series after Uni anyway lol

haha, nah she's alright! dont know her that well but was in the year below us at school and seems decent enough

yeah i sold a fair few parts, obv you had the steering wheel, track rubber / OZs, upper strut brace, and some more parts went just in prep to sell it all, pretty bored of the french scene really and havent been into cars for quite some time.

saying that, i do have my next car lined up for summer and should be viewing it asap

Let me know if you take any more parts off it, im always local to buy up the odd bits and bobs from it. Saying that, in this climate, more people seem to be breaking their VTS's than selling them

I will probably see you driving around in the summer in the new car, giving out a clue to what it is?

It's rear wheel drive, with 24 valves, and built by proper engineers!

German then lol

Just the proper engineers bit give it away.

[hard_corejoeboy]

The last time German Engineers built proper stuff we destroyed it

[Dom]

Booked in for the respray.. Yellooooooow.

Oh and bought some 106 Angels = Win!

Trying to configure how to wire them up = Fail.

Legend! Text me Mikol! I miss our lil gay texts.

Definitely what she said.

[Mikol]

I hate texting but for you I'll make an exception.

Mostly because the last time I rang you were in the bath.

Small Update;

Clutch decided to be angry at me, so its now squeeling like a bitch, sounds like my ex GF so its all good fun. Got my old Clutch off my GTi back, will get me by until I push for big power.

Gearbox isn't anywhere near as good as my old S box, so while the Clutch is off im swapping it over. Cheap Gearbox will be for sale for say what? £30? Its still working very well but the Ratio's are more like a 1.1 box. Maybe im wrong and its just me being a dick with OCD.

Bodywork wise, the Angels are going on Tomorrow. Got a 106 Bonnet with the badge recess already smoothed. Provisionally bought some Yellow Braided lines all round, which is perfectly in time was my GTi6 Brakes are back from a lil Service and are ready to put on.

Thanks to Mikol for most of the parts, legend as always.

Will update with pics tomorrow when I get time.

[Mikol]

Boom! We'll get some pics tomorrow once we suss these angels

Ignore the limp bonnet.



And me thieving his old standard lights, typical Luton scum



Also, I have to say the lights were wired in perfectly, not a bodge job in sight. *ahem*

Thanks Mike, Yep, a update.

Also to note, clutch fully blown. Lamborghini's at full revs pulling away are a bad thing.

[Dom]

Midnight Motorsport..

Been helping Mikol out on his new car for the past few nights, while he does his shit I decide to have a lil tinker with my *was then* Piece of standard shit.

Firstly done my Doorcards, changed them from the GTi ones to the Quicksilver ones, just a personal preference.

Tonight we just finished off the things I have wanted for ages, the GTi6 Brakes. Mikol serviced the Calipers a few weeks back, so they are all nice and shiny now. Fitted with Yellow Exact Braided Brake lines, wonder why they are yellow eh

The shit wheel wobble I was suffering from was finally diagnosed half way through Luton with Mike checking his rear view to find my wheel almost falling off, something was jammed in between the Hub and Alloy, removed it, now all the perfectly fine! Great times!!!

Will update with pictures tomorrow or Mike will, lazy cunt.

[Dom]

Picture time

Ermmmm, where to start. Day 1 - Mini 106 meet yo



Quickie Doorcards Personal preference, darker material than the Grey GTi ones, improves the look of the interior alot imo!



GTi ones out, Quiky ones in. BOOM.





Then it got late, so I had a little naptime while Mikol kept working on the XS, Nothing Mikol's missus hasn't woken upto the morning after a night out anyway, would love to smash her back doors right in and wipe my cock on the curtain on the way out, hope he don't mind, sharing is caring after all.



Day 2 - Back again...



..with big stoppers



Blurry shot, Mike wants to take credit of doing the brakes, but he knows I done 80% of the work while he fucked with his POS.



BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM SIT THE FUCK DOWN BITCH 283mm GTi6 brakes. So glad I didn't sell them!



OZ 16" UltraLeggeras with Toyo's For Sale y0! Want some 15's to make my brakes look bigger, anyone interested, contact me!



And all done, back on the ground



Midnight Motorsport out.

[Mikol]

LOL, cheeky bugger.

Clearly need to put more WD40 on your discs next time...

[Mikol]

Moar updates on the way from Dom. I cba to write them up

In the mean time I've been working on a little something as payment for a few late nights on the XS. Dom gave me a spare set of headlights and I decided to break them...



Oops. But then the paint came out



And a coat of Ford Graphite Grey



And trial fitted back together...



These looks damn sweet. Much less gay than the angel eyes at least

[Dom]

& Moaaaar photo's..

Just because Im a WHORE!



& How we roll when a Champions League Final is on..






Pads and Discs for Sale, GTi Drilled and Grooved Discs with EPC Greenstuff pads.


Sprayed Coilpack cover and ECU Cover.. Took my time on the coilpack cover, lasted about 10minutes of engine heat. Took 5 minutes on the ECU cover, still perfect.


My awesome filler and primer work on a mates car for the LOLz. Huge massive turbo dent from a BT Phone Box. Fail.




Reebok Pumps anyone? Yeaaaaaaaaaaah mate.


3 Stud 106 XS 1.6?! Yes im all over that. Almost done..


& Finally, the best shot of them all, as Mike was taking a piss he walked back and randomly took this


Comments and criticism welcome as always

[Sophia_Bush]

keep the ultras they are the boobies

[Dom]

Not too bothered now, only reason they were up for sale is because I didn't like them on standard ride height, now Springs been ordered and all set for lowering, this should be a nice lil project, nothing is going wrong, at all for once!!
