  1. I had a short ratio in mine and never had any problems I've heard a lot of people say that the jump from 3rd to 4th in the longer ratio boxes is quite drastic and makes the car feel slower.
  2. Can this be removed or locked please Car is now split and only shell & turbo left
  3. I know 😞 Made really good money back and literally only have the shell, front brakes and turbo left now so I'm happy lol Keeping the Recaros for the next car 😎
  4. Lol just had a read and saw the WGMotorparts business card in the HEL lines, I made those lines at work haha Small world
  5. The 72.5mm bush has been removed by Powerflex and they now only offer 69mm, I assume they are all 69mm and your measurement sounds about right
  6. Stripped down to the shell with all panels, may have a buyer for the shell that will be rebuilding it with their own parts. Worst case all panels will be sold and I will have to try and get the plate off to sell, not sure how that works as it's the original plate.
  7. Splitting has begun 😞 List of parts left: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Q9-GIi6TL-hJI-efWzZLcmTuyN9aV4D0ihTSEFEVelY/edit This will update with other parts as I get round to it as well
  8. Still here, seats and shifter and some other parts most likely will be removed and price lowered soon.
  9. Never thought I'd see the day but the car is now for sale 😭 :
  10. I've had this car for the last 5 years and spent a small fortune on it (more than some people even believe), the Recaros, Quaife LSD and clutch come to almost 5K alone. Thousands of hours have gone into building this to how I wanted it but time has come for a change 😞 My build thread is on here but it's not completely up to date: Fabia vRS Mk1 Special Edition - MY07 VRS Original number plate from factory Shell is on 135K but clean for it's age, engine is on 117K. ~300Bhp / 380LbFt Recaro Pole Position seats - Leather / Alcantara Garrett GTB2262VK - Rebuilt by Turbo Dynamics Colt Stage 3 Cam Firad race injectors +80% Darkside Developments tubular manifold Darkside Developments inlet manifold Darkside Developments shallow sump Darkside Developments front mount intercooler Darkside Developments hardpipe kit Darkside Developments GTB TIP intake kit with AEM filter Darkside Developments wheel stud and nut kit Darkside Developments Mocal oil cooler - thermostatic Darkside Developments ARP head studs Sachs SRE organic clutch kit - Single mass flywheel 4H-Tech Short shifter (Gearbox side) CoolerWorx Short Shifter Quaife ATB LSD with Darkside Developments steel selector forks etc Vibra-Technics engine, dog bone and gearbox mounts Polybush front Wishbones 3" Downpipe Piper catback exhaust 2.5" Brembo GT 4 Pot Calipers - Ferodo DS3000 / MTEC 323mm discs 256mm rear brakes - PBS ProRace pads / MTEC discs Bilstein B14 coilovers Jabbasport RARB Gloss black powdercoated Seat Sport strut brace Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2 Michelin Pilot Sport 4 Gloss black powdercoated Jabbasport RARB HEL front braided lines HEL custom rear braided lines HEL Braided clutch line Depo Xenon headlights - Black inserts Newsouth Performance boost, oil pressure and oil temperature gauges Prosport EVO EGT gauge Enhance performance custom rear strut brace AEM Water Methanol Injection kit - Not yet fully fitted Enthuse Engineering geometry set-up with custom shims to add 2.4 degree rear camber SuperSkoda bonnet lifters Gloss black powdercoated slam panel Professionally detailed and ceramic coated Lots of other small bits done, just too much to list! Most will say it's not worth this sort of money, but if you're looking to get your own to this spec then this is an absolute bargain, I'll split the car if no one takes it. £8000 ONO Could possibly arrange a deal on this without the seats and I'll source factory leathers or even sell without seats at all. I plan on getting the same Recaros for my next car (Mk3 Megane RS) If you have any questions or want any more images / info, please message me
  11. That will still mark the paint where it sits on the top edge. I cut the tail off of mine and just hold it or rest it on the pump when I'm filling up.
  12. Go elsewhere, if they can't map a simple PD150 turbo then they're definitely into the flash and dash mapping
  13. Ah, completely missed the rear 🤣 Yeh rears just use OEM or euros cheap pads!
  14. Lots of people seem to think performance pads are awful from cold but it's not the case, I've ran Ferodo DS2500, DS3000 and DS1.11 on the road and they are all perfectly fine even from stone cold.
  15. Can't believe it's been this long without an update I do hope this is still happening
  16. Standard exhaust is fine to roughly 220 - 230Bhp before becoming a restriction
  17. Mines a 3" de-cat to Piper straight through now and sounds nothing like that haha, I have no idea what causes the owl sound but it's not my taste!
  18. Not 100% sure if that's what he's referring to but it could be? @Jase009
  19. Definitely following this, very good spec car and your plans look great
