how come your not doing a build thread?
#11: Re: I'll leave this right here... Author: Uz, Location: No Man's LandPosted: Fri Nov 16, 2012 10:20 am ---- Because after what's happened with the XSi and SW. I'm not having a single person nicking my ideas and passing them off as their own. People need to start using their imagination.
Yeah it's a standard fuel cap. Just waiting on my colour matched GTi metal fuel cap to arrive from Dave.
#12: Re: I'll leave this right here... Author: MattyP, Location: PlymouthPosted: Fri Nov 16, 2012 11:11 am ---- Looking sweet mate, but then I wouldn't expect anything less from yourself. Look forward to seeing the finished item, just make sure you still have it come FCS

Thanks mate...tow eyes will be a marmite mod.
But I'm glad I didn't put yellow tow straps on this time round like I did with the XSi.
#19: Re: I'll leave this right here... Author: jayz206gti, Location: TamworthPosted: Sat Nov 17, 2012 2:36 pm ---- Marmite mods are good though. Its what keeps things interesting! IVe been toying the removal of the sp cap since i did my sticker bombed one on my old 138. I think seeing this and Jamies has made my mind up

Ill get some more pics once I've got the car back off axle stands and the front end built back up with the lights in etc. In the middle of getting the exterior finished as quick as possible with the weather being so unpredictable and the days getting shorter.

Speaking to Liam of 106oc about getting headwork done in the new year. But it'll be the following work;
Quote:
Headwork would be port and reshape inlet ports. Mill valve guides. Polish exhaust ports. skim all gasket faces. Chemical clean. Polish vales and relap.
That would cost me £280 to have done...
But would be paired up with either Catcams 802 on a standard ECU or Catcams 804 on a remapped ECU.
Considering there the same price I'm swaying towards the 804 cam kit and get a remap from RS Tuning or similar once it's done.
Been told I'm looking at upwards of 200bhp with a BMC CDA and the Janspeed. So looking at doing that after March time.
#27: Re: I'll leave this right here... Author: Shortstuff, Location: GloucesterPosted: Mon Nov 26, 2012 9:12 am ---- Speak to GTi180boy when it comes to the Cams.
There was some issuses IIRC with the one set of cams. One of the more lary ones?
He fitted them and someone else did, he had to fix someone elses as Pug1off had problems
All a bit vague, but I read alot about it ages ago.
