you running the brake pipes under the U bolts? they looks bloody close!

Low and wide look by changing the headlights? #Jardologic

i got bored today and decided to make my quickshift.... well quicker I've hit the limit of front/rear throw modification i can do on the gearbox linkage, so next was to modify the gearlever mech. This is basically the idea im going for: raise the pivot point on the gear lever. They claim that'll give a 50% reduction in throw, and the white plastic part looks like the standard one, so i'd take an educated guess that they raised the pivot point an inch. i didnt want to go that far as i've already reduced the f/r throw already. being the exact person that i am, i reduced it by the size of the nearest spacer i could find! which ended up being 12.5mm Modifying the standard system means doing this: straightning the gear lever. machining out the cut out an extra 12.5mm machining the groove for the top circlip an extra 12.5mm higher cutting and welding the pivot point an extra.... you guessed it, 12.5mm higher! i'm SO glad i did this. The gear lever cost me £2 from scrap yard, and this modification took me about an hour to do. It feels so much better. the front to rear throw is so much shorter (i reckon about 30-40% less than i had), but not too short. theres enough travel to know which gear your in, but not too much to make it feel horrible. its a real nice feel of gear....neutral.... next gear....

doesnt the left headlight cut down, when it's meant to cut up?

Little bit more modifying to the front end. Painted the vw badge black, it being chrome was annoying me: Also cut out the hole through the grill to match the front panel:

you need a dirty diesel luke

i honestly hate listening to the radio. Radio 1 presenters talk so much shit 99% of the time. i cant remember the exact presenter, but fridays nights seem to be the only good time to listen to radio 1.....

got bored today and carried on hacking away the front panel: A few holes drilled: opened up a bit power tools that my dad keeps buying for him me to use how far i got today: finally got all the pipework for turbo to intercooler (after the ally pipe not turning up, and having a new 45 degree silicone hose made up because the first one was wank!)

my golf is the most horrific handling car ive ever driven, and even i could do better than that

They look really good jardo! This annoys me: Its the trim clip thats holds the trim onto the c pillar. I've spent weeks looking online for replacements, and found nothing. Tried removing second hand ones off cars at scrap yard and failed at that. I found out today by complete accident, that if you twist them 90 degrees, the pull straight out

I pm'd you, think your mailbox was full? Wasn't paying attention to the message that came up

I've got a 3" vag maf which i only need the tube from. could send you the sensor if it's any good to you?

I thought you was talking crap then, but it took me a while to see I also managed to pick up these gems. Driveshafts, hubs and struts of a Golf V5. (i only wanted the hubs, but had no tools to strip them and for £25 i cant complain! ) Just need some 312mm carriers and disks, then can upgrade the front brakes.

Dan275847363 style compare ECS centering plates: only issue i had was clearance with one of the undertrays (quickly sorted with a sharp knife!):

Love the method of 'throw enough shit and some will stick'

Bitches be crazy #endofthread

Earthing issues can cause random shit to happen like that aswell?

that even!

dont know where you got the 22.22 from? 16th july 1974 - 22nd february 2014 ? http://www.echo.bike/the-memories-of-deng-qiang.html- says he passed 22nd feb.

nice cars with loud exhausts (within reason) sound nice. Shit cars with bakebean tins on the back always sound wank

and you know how sturdy frozen shit is how......

talk about overkill i threw one together the other weekend for shits and giggles. ripped a standard headrest apart, bolted a 4mm ally plate to the pivot mechanism, job done!

she came home with a new outlook on life, wanted to go travelling again, blah blah. Jardo told her to jog on.....

Looks fine, which part are you questioning? Edit : You'll properly find the drivers side is heavier due to engine/ fuel tank placement

you're 1 kg over, you fat basterd!
