Bloody part timer :p

You only fitted one? pics of that too! want to see it darnnnnnn! you can get it sitting on the tyres with no scrub with them coilovers... DOOO IT!

Haha! Only 35 hours a week!

Yeh other one was siezed! Sorted with a blowtorch and wire brush :p yeh its gonna be way lowwwww! At there highest setting theres 2 fingers of arch gap! Bearing in mind thats 13 inch wheels with 50 profile tyres

Boom! need to chop a coil out of the front though!

ohhhhh

Blowtorch and wire brush... presume you took the shock out?

If a mk4 strut is pefect also just how long are mk1/2/3 polo ones compared to all other VW's of the era

Haha nahh lmao, itl be alright fuck the shock aslong as its low! Yeh the mk4s are a fair bit shorter man!

OIOI!

Nice work matey :biggrin:

cheers, tried it on the car, doesent seem to leak at all

LOL naa there covered in chemical metal anyway so not that pretty. Alit better than before though! Oh and i welded up the injector holes too so its a lil ugly! Not too bad tho

form over function i think is the answer mate or rough and ready. both sound better than rough as fuck but it'll be reet :p

Loool aslong as it works better than my bodged up standard mani its all good! Might be able to fit the trumpets on too if I'm lucky!

Would you believe it.... its almost like you knew what you where doing

Haha asif! Lmao

before you spend loads on chemical metal ...how about clean it all up nice and tack them in place , then see if someone that can weld nice would do it for some beers

I'm would be definatly up for this! ha

i didnt read that bit i didnt get page two uploaded? anyway, pure argon, doesnt burn as hot as an argasheild gas. i would of used that next time. therefore the finish isnt as great.

Yes, everything is done, its mig welded with a standard welding gas bottle, 86% argon i think. Its on the car now working fine. Just my carbs are playing up

Nah its the same symptoms as with the old mani :(

Fuck throttle bodies! Loool.

Nah the carb on cyl 1 half the time fires super rich and the rest of the time dont fire at all. (colourtune ftw) like its getting blocked or something. Other ones r fine :s

super super rich will cause the cylinder not to spark as its flooding.

Money saved on manifold wending can go on petrol then

Yeah its just dumping fuel out of the exhaust lol. I tset all the mixture screws the same and the other 3 are pretty much bang on, just this one! Ill have a go at readjusting tonight :)

Cant wait for the rev limiter to turn up so i can have it hopefully popping flames lol :)

Has that screw got all its parts?

Had the same issue with mine and the washer and o-ring were missing + the pin on the needle wasnt straight.

Ah really? Thats deffo something ill check out then. Ill unscrew it tonight hopefully and have a look

Dno man i think most spark cut limiters do it to some extent. Ill find out shortly! Haha

Awesomeee! Ill just wack the limiter up and see what it can do! Haha!

What engines in yours?

Sweeeeeet!

WOOOOOOOOOOOO took the carbs off and took them apart COMPLETELY, after everything all that was wrong was a blocked jet!! think its the idle jet??

soaked them all in boiling waterand washing up liquid, lew through them all and they unblocked! now its purring away! a little rich now though. but I DONT CARE!! well happy...

brum brum! Update that thread with a video

There u go

Didnt rev it much as it was like 10 at night and its parked right alongside my neighbours house. Haha! Well happy now! Just gotta set the mixtures properly and put the trumpets on and were away!

:drool:

Haha :p 16v vs 8v = no contest. Max will realise one day..

just did a 7.7 to 60 with the timing out, carbs not properly set up, 2 people, lots of wheelspin and loads of shit in the boot. i think the manifold has worked
