Really good job Jud, Really nice :-).

Dread to think how much this thing has set you back haha.

If it was me PERSONALLY i'd consider windening the fronts and fitting some more appropriate tyres for the state of tune.

Cheers mate

I know, 10's would be good ha, the tyres on the front are 195/45s'. The front arches need doing next. Its a serious cash cow now though.

Thanks mate, too much ha, ill never get it back either.

Yeah if i widened the front and got some wider tyres on for traction that would be better for me. I'm going in for a re-map any time soon and I'm worried about the stretched tyres on the rollers ha.

Ooooft, love that from the front.

Hate it from the back though :-(

Only 195's? ) I'd at least try get some 205's on there man, and get the rear poking out more than the front aha

Looks so good!

I think i might have to agree ha, i dont like the number plate recess on the back and might put a mk5 boot lid on with badge. It will do for now though.

I might swap the wheels over and have the rears on the front. What do you think?

That is a damn good job on that mate =D car looks top notch

are the fronts wider than the rears or is that just how it looks now???

Cheers pal, no they're exactly the same size but the front arches havn't been widened yet so the wheels stick out more than the rear which in turn makes them look wider.

Haha, i know, theres always something else i want doing, i need something else now to make it faster but don't know what. An lsd would be good but its a £1000 and the engine has to some back out. What else could i do?

Also removing the ebay listing as i want to keep it now ha

I'm going to have a look into it now, I've NEARLY persuaded a local lad to re-map the car on his rolling road, with a bit of luck it should be over 300bhp. Fingers crossed

:badgrin: YESSSS! Speak to mr adaptorman, I'm sure he'll explain NOS alot better than i ever could :-) If hes not sure on it ask Y00F on here, hes used it on his old 3f lump :-)

Ill do just that mate ha. Just come to it today to have a little blast and one of the O - rings on the 440 injectors has gone due to the big fuel pressure from the new inline pump so its a front end off job to put a 10 pence piece of rubber in lol. I'm gutted because its booked in for re-mapping friday. Am i ever going to make it to the dyno?
