Then left it to rot for a year, then sold it.

And bought it back a while later :cheers:

and came back with some interesting wheels - BRM Flat 4 Beetle wheels with 4x100 to 4x130 adapters,

After few issues with the BRMs (and not making it to pod) I've pinched a set of rare Artec PA's (Porsche Twist Reps) seen only a few sets on the forums so far)

This is how i got them

This weekend just gone up Lydden Hill, Rattle can re paint 24hrs before show

Cars off the road this weekend as the front hub has worn out, so waiting for a new one from Volkswagen. Bad times.

Next things to do are order 2 tyres for the BRM's and get them back on, matt black roof and side exit behind rear wheel to carry on retro feel. oh and order a steering wheel boss for my new OMP 280mm steering wheel!

Thats all for now.

Trigg.

derestricted airbox ? what u mean lol sounds interesting

how much did the adaptors cost you? i have a set of empi 8s in my shed, theyd look better than the shit wheels i have on now

  • Author

Not what they should of, sorry, the wheels come into my ownership by chance, (blown up engine/needing funds to repair) but since then I've been told there becoming rare.

oh ok cheers had a look at mine it it doesnt have that cone anyway, my m8s got a bmc on his valver and he said it makes a difference

  • Author

Yeh hopefully will make a positive difference, instead of using ducting going to run stainless tuning with silicone hoses right to behind the grill to get the best airflow,

yhh my m8 gunna put stainless piping in his hes just running ducking type pipe at mo

Got fed up with original audio set up so having a re think and building some pods behind door cards and installing rear co axials into the rear door cards (as i had a spare set)

Think the rears turned out pretty neat, still got to start the fronts. :|

Picked up as a swap, not sure if i like them, might look pimp in the polo though.

Oh and the Momo wheel is in! no pics though :(

Mr Ainsworth Fitted my 4-2-1 Manifold & straight through middle section aswell, time to speak to fahrvergnugen tuning about getting my ecu chipped.

Also got to finish wiring the 4 channel to the speakers, power distribution to the boot etc etc list goes on . .

Thanks for looking.

Trigger.

*Small Update"

Managed to build the door pods behind the originals, just the grill doesn't fit over now, but there are now sealed mdf pods for the mids, and tweeters have been sunk into the doorcard above, then all 4 speakers wired in the 4 channel into the boot, much better,

"Great Success!"

Will put a few pics up when i remember.
