Track is a different matter entirely, but on the road... You really can't use them hard enough... If you are, you're driving like a dickwad.

If you're going for the porno factor - that's fine, but don't claim they're for a road performance benefit...


Re: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Jonny81191 - 19-02-2012

Not really an update, but...

I've been gathering shiny bits and there's a few things need sorting, here's the job list as it stands.

Fit coilovers and adjustable rear shocks.
Maybe lower the rear a bit.
Fit GTi6 Brakes when they arrive.
Finish fitting my boost gauge.
Fit MBC.
Wire up my air horns.
Spare wheel cage.
Swap to a working set of clocks, need to sort how to keep the mileage though.
Could do with a polish and wax.
Repair floor mats cos I'm too much of a cheapskate to buy a set.
Move the LED for the alarm to the middle of the dash to cover some holes there.
Sort the trailer wiring cos it's broken.

Shouldn't take long! :roll:


Re: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Dum-Dum - 19-02-2012

Thats a fair old list of parts mate.

If you look at cullys in dash boost gauge guide theres detaills of how to keep your mileage.

How are your clocks not working, could it be a multiplug come undone or a fuse?


Re: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Jonny81191 - 19-02-2012

Yeah, scary how many jobs there are when you write it down!

The clocks.. well they're stuffed. Only thing that works apart from the mileage LCD is the speedo. Fuel reads whatever it likes unless you tap it, then it will just go to 1/4 no matter what. Revs work but the needle does not move smoothly, it jumps randomly up and down. And the temperature has never come off the stop.

I fitted the set from my old 1.6 petrol, and it all works fine.


Re: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Dum-Dum - 19-02-2012

Sorry mate, but I've heard the squeal them things make! Otherwise I would consider them.


Re: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Foxy-jim - 20-02-2012

Sounds like a good list to get through! Nothing too major which is always good!


Re: My stage 2 HDi Estate - mark_airey - 20-02-2012

If you want a hand with anything then you know where I am mate, nice list though, should keep you busy for a while............lol


Re: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Jonny81191 - 20-02-2012

I reckon I can do it all in a weekend, apart from lowering the rear as I haven't done it before and it looks like a bit of a mission.

Dum-Dum, when was it last serviced? It probably needs it anyway by now lol.


Re: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Foxy-jim - 20-02-2012

Lowering isn't too bad. I just did the rear of mine!

I had to weld it up as the thread I cut wasn't deep enough!


Re: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Jonny81191 - 29-02-2012

Right, got my rear shocks and spare wheel cage fitted this evening. I can't wait for it to be light until late though!


Re: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Foxy-jim - 29-02-2012

What rear shocks did you go for?


Re: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Jonny81191 - 29-02-2012

Koni adjustables, bought them off JP.


Re: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Foxy-jim - 29-02-2012

Re: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Poodle - 01-03-2012

Hahah love that home-brew quickshift! :think:

Looks like you're getting on top of your list of niggles pretty quickly, fair play matey.


Re: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Jonny81191 - 01-03-2012

Coilovers fitted, just got to put the wheels on tomorrow and get it sitting right.


Re: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Foxy-jim - 02-03-2012
