February Update:

Got my hands on some Team Dynamic Pro Race 1.2 in white to be used as track/spare alloys, However after fitting them I fell in love and have since been left on the car Smile

 


 


 


However the tyres on them were way past the legal limit, so next up was 4 new tyres after fitting Toyo Proxes T1R'S to my other wheels (vortex's) I was impressed with them so decided to go with the same on these wheels Smile

 


Next up was giving the inside of the alloys a good clean as they were pretty dirty.

Before & After

 


Finished

 


Last of all I got myself a Cupra R splitter, So wasted no time fitting it Very Happy

 


 


Comments welcome

Luke.

This car reminds me of my old one! wish I could be asked to spend money on this one.

Looks nice mate, just unsure of the mix match theme (Smoked & clean *white wheels*)

Cheers mate Smile

Hmm yeah I know what you mean, Im changing my side indicators back to clear, but I think I'm going to leave the fogs and headlights as they are, Then white powder-coated petrol cap and white front badge.

Hopefully that will help the wheels blend in abit more. Smile

There are loads of places that do pressed plates, However you need to make sure they have the BSAU145d code printed on them with the makers name and post code, else the police can give you a fine, some makers dont make them correctly they have to still be relfective and not everyones are so just watch out on that. Smile

I brought mine from Dubmeister I had no problem with them they send the plates out next day delivery.

Are you using stock rubbers or some aftermarkets for the Janspeed because mine has never sat right closest I got was with a Powerflex one but it was wrong fitment so had to be changed.

There just the standard rubbers mate, However a little birdy told me that the 106 Gti rubbers will do the best job and make it fit nice and close to the bumper, I'll be changing mine soon because it does sag a little.

However they will take abit of forcing on and some washing up liquid. Smile

After looking into induction kits, I finally decided on the k&n typhoon, So got it fitted straight away Smile

It feels better the throttle seems more responsive, and the sound after 4k rpm is awesome! Thumbs Up

Just some small updates;

Firstly I got bored of the boring and pretty rubbish standard orange bulbs, So decided to fit my HID's back in. :), I took them out as it was messing with my ECU before, but now hopefully I've positioned the ballast out the way so it wont interfere Smile

50/50

 


Finished result Smile

 


 


Secondly I replaced my head unit with an alpine one looks alot smarter than my old one IMO Smile

 


 


In the next few weeks Ill hopefully be replacing my front brakes with the 406 Brembo's also fitting a decat pipe so watch this space Wink
