Jake's Black PH1 DTuuuurbo.

[strictly_perv]

Get some more vids up!
Is the car still on a 9mm?

[Dan!]

Yep still on a 9mm and still got enough left on the max fuel that the idle hasnt jumped up yet. Didnt have time to get vids today because its pouring with rain and we just did the test run round my estate, but it certainly goes well

[Jake]

Can't believe how well it pulls now!

Have also hopefully fixed the oil leak now too, was coming out of the rocker cover but all the way round it! So have put the old seal back in and a thin layer of instant gasket.

Now, just have to wait till payday for more funds, then the wheels will get a respray and touch up a couple of areas on the car.

Naaw not tonight dude, got a nightshift
I can grab it off you at either the next ea meet or are you going to PPC?

[declantg]

probably wont be going to PPC, but yeah sure next ea meet is fine

[Jake]

Well I have just how out to get a quick video, not great because I had no one to hold the phone so I wedged it in the pas' seat between the headrest, I'll get a vid from outside soon, first half of the video is okay but roads were super slippy hence the hacking at the wheel, second half is just normal driving.

[Dan!]

Lol, thats from the high school up towards hugh crane isnt it? Up a hill! You cant see much from the speedo but look at the trees's fly past when you first floor it :o I want another ride

[Jake]

Yeah it is lol, just did a quick lap round back onto the a47 to let it cool down tehe, I'll come up during the week some point and can go or a drive / wire in my fan switch

[Dan!]

Yeah sounds good. At least you shouldnt have too much overheating problems with this weather atm :roll: but we'l get the fans sorted soon

[Poodle]

This is looking epic dude, can't wait to see it at ppc.

[Jake]

Oh yeah this happened yesterday... FML


Reposing a harrier ATM.

[ash23]

good progress and love the car
although are they stock dt front brakes?

[Anton]

Bet your glad it's all done, miss seeing this car!

Yes 247s, can't fit any bigger because of the wheels.

[Jake]

Yeah 247s but going to look into getting some spacers to fit GTIs soon.

[Eeyore]

Youll be amazed when you fit gti6 brakes. Mine are amazing but I havent had to use them properly yet! As always love this car and it will look ace when youve got the wheels painted... if they arent in a leary colour!

[Jake]

AARRGGHHHAARGHRAR

FFS:




That's going to cost me a windscreen!

[mark_airey]

Could be worse.........if you didn't have a windscreen whatever it was would be stuck in your forehead

Phone your insurance company and ask, most of them will pay for a windscreen without affecting no claims etc

Yeah that's the plan for when I get home, wasn't even driving out of my choice, was giving someone a lift.

[Dan!]

.. wasn't even driving out of my choice, was giving someone a lift.

Simple, get them to pay for it


Bad luck though mate. You been paid yet?

Yeah.... Today, my car knows when it's payday!

[Ruan]

Finally sloggin' her to 6k... Get on!

Looks good though... You need to get the interior out, you'll adore it with no interior - honestly, makes DTs feel 500000x better.

[Ben]

If you got windscreen cover excess is about 75 quid

[Jake]

Yup just sorted it, there coming tomorrow to replace it.

& Ruan, very unsure on stripping the car out as its the only car I have access to & would be irritatingly noisy!

[Dan!]

I never got bored/annoyed by my 205 when it was stripped. Such a hoot to drive!

[Ben]

It would be but it also then becomes a two person car, most people need back seats every now and then

[Dan!]

Yeah, if you can remember the last 3 times you had somebody in the back seats then you should probably keep them. If it was so long ago you cant remember then sack them off is what I say

[Ben]

I can't remember the last three times but I did have a full car on sat so pretty recent

[4WayDiablo]

get rid of them anyway and if they want to get to where theyre going then maybe they should learn to drive too! lol

[Jake]

Yeah had a full car Friday and 3 on Saturday...

Might half strip it so I can still put seats in if need to.
