pretty pee'vd off at the moment tbh,

i had complained about the brakes being pants on the car when i got it, so upgraded the discs/pads to fast road use, to see only a smaller improvement, after that i installed a brake stopper and again a little improvement, but nothing special.

i had asked the previous owner if the brake pedal had always been low which he confirmed to it had, then today taking the p1 out we have in at the moment i noticed how good the brakes were, along with everybody saying how good a caliper the standard 4 pots are, mine were no better than those on my nissan sunny!!!

so on my back to look under the dash for adjustments, to my absolute amazement the pedal box wasn't actually bolted to the chassi at the top!!! i nearly died.... at the top it fixes to the chassi box section with two 13mm bolts, these lifted the pedal also, a test frive confirmed how good the brakes now were but man an i annoyed,

what idoit leaves the brakes unscrewd!!

Your old Orchiari lip spoiler won't fit the new bumper, not many about so it should sell pretty well LOL

massive change of plan now anyways as i have secured a full blobeye conversion for the car so my bits will be forsale soon

Your limited to 1.1 bar boost on td04 with a 2 port solenoid. Change it to a 3 port and 1.3 bar is safely achievable. The 2 port isn't needed but always advised on a bug.

Some excellent work on this mate too

i will throw a forsale thread up soon

Darrell@Scoobyworx

iTrader: (5)

If the grill fits over the original then it's not genuine as that's what I have now an it plastic as well. Genuine ones are one piece I believe.

still waiting for andy's parts to arrive, so got the repairs done on mine, the majority were slight panel marks meaning i could block them down and just prime them,
