yeh always wondered why you never bought a jap spec boot for this

Never bought one because thats what most other J'Euro/DM polos have.. i haven't seen a 6n2 jap spec rear bumper on a 6n before so i wanted to be a little different to all the other 6n's

It's true most off them have the boot not the bumper there is one down my end like urs but not many out there tbf

Still nothing happening :( But i have got myself a new favorite pic of the car..

Got a new tripod for the camera.. So went out and started experimenting with different aperture and shutter speeds..Heres the results, not bad for a camera cost £60 new :)

So much love for this car <3 wicked photo's too. what camera isit mate? looks real good for £60?

Thanks mate much appreciated.. Its a car thats very much hated on haha

Umm i dont know the exact model.. But its a 'GE' camera.. 14.somthing MP. its by far not the most sophisticated camera but its amazing for 60! Only thing it needs is a manual focus and it would be the perfect camera

Considered selling up a couple weeks ago. Bored and cant do much at the moment as i have a lot of maintenance bits and need to fix the bits of paint that are letting the size down (bonnet after USC etc.).

Some of you will be happy that I've decided NOT to sell up. I think i'd miss the little thing.

Updates are.. Nout.

Settled into new job so i have money coming back in now and I'm doing as much overtime as possible to get the car back on track.

- The under chassis is now undersealed completely.

- Bought a new mid + back section of my exhaust as mine are naffed, £40 for both brand new

- After discussions with mates, I've decided what engine will be eventually going into the Polo. Eventually.

Found a leak that looks like its coming from the gearbox so will need to get it up in the air to have a look ASAP.

Also, me being a clumbsy idiot, managed to crack my rear bumper. Its not bad really, very easily repairable. Just a proper fucking annoyance.

Ill be getting a new bonnet soon also, one with the washer jets flushed off, then relocate them to the scuttle.

Next things to come.. Fix paint problems and start work on the wheel fitment situation through the winter.

I'm glad your not selling it after all that work mate . Have you done anything to it lately . Hope all is good. Dave

Ahh so much hate for it at the moment man!

Nothing build wise.. Just maintenance at the moment. New exhaust that is rattling against my axle so needs to be refitted (BLEH) and i hae a rear brake cylinder thats leaking fluid.. mehhhh! More things cropping up. cant wait to get the build back on PROPER progress.. Before everone loses interest, including me!

Keep at it mate, built a lovely motor so far! Can only get better

DON'T DO WHAT I DID lol.. I got bored of my eaton g40 6n sold it and got an evo I built to 420bhp don't get me wrong it was epic but look where I am now I got bored of that just no real spirit in them cars so I'm back working on a polo :)...

Just slap in a mad engine :) that's where it's at

So.. This happened..

Roundabout + Cold/Icy driving conditions + Barrier = Lots of small pieces of Polo.

Dammit! It was icy this morning i left the house at 4:20am and got the Fabia sideways =/

You'll get it sorted but you dont seem to have any luck with bodywork!

mate you have no luck . hope you can repair it . Dave

Yea it will be sorted.. Get paid in 2 weeks so might just get all the paint shit done out of the way.

I know i know, so much needs doing now. Getting sick of it haha

Yeah man, get it all done in one blast.

This is so smart mate, colour is awesome too, credit to you!

Nice to see something different :)

Thanks fella, glad you approve!

So.. after a while of nothing i have a small update.. I bought some new wheels :)

Bought them off my mate for cheep but had to put 4 brand new tyres on them.

Also, had to increase the centre bore from 54.1 to 57.1. Got a few quote from machine shops but they wanted around £60-80 to do it. Decided to do it myself.

60mm 80grit flap wheel + Powerful drill + small amount of filing = HAPPY DAYS!

They are in poor nick.. Looking to get them sanded down and a lick of paint to get them fresh. Undecided on a colour yet tho.. May be just winters or may be 2nd show wheels.. we shall see.

The rota's are now off and tyres removed ready for a fresh refurb for 2013.

Next thing to do is get the paintwork sorted out and get her looking a bit less worse for wear.

Updates soon..

Ahh i love 3 spokes, so cool. One of my regrets with my polo is not buying a set of rays engineering 3 spokes :(

well done with the home made centre bore mate. I'm personally not a massive fan of these wheels, but I'm sure with a refurb you'll make them suit. As for the rotas cant wait to see them re-done :)

Temporary 3's these are.. Possibly getting new wheels for 2013 if i can get the money by the next time a set come up for sale.

Yea mate will be painting them and gettign them looking a bit better.. they are poor condition at the moment so do let the side down.. Rota prep will start just after the new year.. Unless the wanted wheels apear, then it will be bye bye rota's

Next thing is to get her BACK into the bodyshop to fix that sexy little arse of hers.
