I forgot one major thing... I need to fit the carbs and all cables too lol!

Do hope so, probably wont, but i know for a fact it will be because i make a mistake on the loom or something

Got the loom planned out yet toby ?

looking good toby, its a bit disheartening that the coilovers dont give as much drop as was hoped for, but softer springs will help bring it down

Awesome dude! Nice work.

Petty the coilovers are yellow ain't it? Would have looked awesome in orange/blue

Gutted you ain't coming to action!

tbh, i couldnt go any lower. passanger side i cant actually get my finger between the driveshaft and the chassis leg now.

I need to bring that side up a touch anyway as its a tad lower than the drivers.

I still have travel too now I've removed nearly all the bumpstop lol. So will be more comfortable than the breadvan thank fuck.

Possibly have to bring both sides up a touch when the BBS are on anyway, as i want it sat bang on flush with the tyre... and they are fresh compared to these slick A539's.

Not a fan of tuck, i think it just looks broken. Flush is where its at.

I know, i did offer kiz some left over orange paint, but it was too late, had already been done Will never see them anyway really, ill let them get covered in dirt

Ordered my Lamin-x for the fogs and hella lamps yesterday

Need to find a suitable choke cable. Hat the ones that you twist and pull though :(

Got a date it should be on the road then? Bet you cant wait.

This years action would have been an awesome unveiling!

There's always Gti inters ?? Should have mine up, running and bedded in by then :)

how many bloomin cars you got? lol.

did you bring it to polo show? i kinda didnt bother looking at many cars due to not bringing my wellys or rubber dinghy!

Good to see the progress anyway Mr :-) Is she far off now then? is it just needing time or do you still need some parts?

Small bit of progress

Front brakes are now plumbed in, and found a suitable bolt to use as a blank on my master as it has 4 holes for some reason (new one) So can get the brakes bled soon.

Front is sat kinda level, although tracking has gone to piss again lol.

Painted some bits

Had a play with my fave new toy....

Got given it lol, winning!!

And mounted my facet :)

Also painted and fitted my front brace bar, had to space it down with washers though as it fouled with the AFH 4Branch.. Tis alreet though.

More to come over the next week. Should hopefully get a lot done Action weekend, as I'm not going I've gotta spend the time working on the car atleast lol.

You got given a pillar drill?? Where the fuck was i when this went down?

lmao!

Got given a few other things too, Makita cordless with an extra battery, and some other spare tools.

Mates dad wanted rid as they had no use for them, had upgraded to other stuff lol.

Like the pillar drill, they now have a proper pedal operated beasty lol.

Wound the rears down a bit more when i was doing the pump, made no difference haha. So will have another look at that when i wire and plumb in the pump.

RA's are back on also, instant improvement!

You got given a pillar drill?? Where the fuck was i when this went down?

He'll be drilling holes into random things now for the fun of it!

deffo instant win tho. proper handy gizmo for some jobs.

Lol at the piller drill, be hand to have though!

Carb top and header tank lid sprayed orange? Nice!

Get some progress pics up please, with the RA's on!

Haha, it's bad.. Love it.

I will get pics up once I've fixed the tracking, it's an absolute nice person to move with one wheel being off.

Went on a spending spree again today on little bits.

T piece and various hose connectors, and all fuel hose n clips.

Glass inline fuel filter

Oil breather filter

Ducting for the bonrath intake (as I don't want to use the red stuff that came with it)

And a few other bits.

All paid for from selling the regulator and inline pressure gauge, as I'm going to just us t piece method now.

All orange I hope, we need pics dude.

None of the above is in orange. I don't want too much orange, will get a bit too busy in the bay otherwise!

Action would have been, yeah. was the year before last when i put the GT in. All going well, it will be 'unveiled' at GTI festival in October. Best be there

I just hope it all works fine and there are no major problems when i get it running. ill be mega pissed off if there are lol.

I'm going on Holiday on 21st Oct, no matter what, it needs to be done by then as i refuse to drive Hannah's Yarris lmao!

Cannot wait to get it on the road now!!!

Good to see it coming on Tobes, and hope you make it for GTI fest in october

Cheers Andy

Yours will probably be one of my 1st outings in it to come show you

Haha toby. I'm in the same boat .. I'm taking my missus cornwall in start of october. NOT driving the punto on the moterway ... So dull lol ..

Fuck all left to do on this mate so should piss it :)

Fair play, I've known you for a while, but never knew you took this much pride in the Polo!

She's mint!
