  1. A bit awkward but doable. Need to remove the glove box. And yes it's behind the tray a bit but not too bad once you get in there.
  2. You need a bigger arb on the back so as you have a 25mm front i would say the 28mm rear. I had golf r32 23mm front and neuspeed 28mm rear. Handling was greatly improved. Arb's will not affect ride (thats springs and shocks), they reduce body roll.
  3. I used the existing grommet behind the pollen filter tray under the scuttle trim.
  4. Really.... a brake switch cheaper than a map..! Who'd of thought Yes, the switch should fix the problem. Mapping will remove the 'feature' and was for info only
  5. It's not boost cutting as such, it's the throttle that's cutting out. Drive by wire cars have a safety feature by where if accelerator and brake pedal are pressed at the same time (or duff brake switch), the car will kill the throttle as it's safer to slow down than drive flat chat into the car in front/tree/house etc. This feature can be mapped out by the way
  6. Been prepping my new inlet manifold for painting too, pics to follow. Will fit to my newly built large port head, flowed and using Newmans fast road cams. Which will fit to my newly built bottom end with uprated crank, rods, pistons, acl bearings, girdled block.... Which mates up to.... tell ya later
  7. Flywheel will only fit on one way as the mounting holes are not evenly spaced. And as mentioned the 'box is (insert expletive) heavy.
  8. Doesn't say which coating it was, doesn't say if it was applied properly and no idea what the paint was like before it was dipped. I will carry on dipping
  9. I changed mine to poly when fitting the 'quick rack' so couldn't say if it was this that made the difference but steering is very tight and responsive now.
  10. Is it all gears? Reverse usually (but not always) plays up first if it's the cables.
  11. So you've never removed it? Was it genuine plasti-dip? applied properly? to sound original paintwork? I have done and seen loads of removals with no problems.
  12. And you're in the perfect place to go and see Ben at Shark performance (Mansfield).
  13. Another vote for porsche setup here due the the sheer weight of the VAG manhole covers...!!!
  14. there's three bolts, one directly above the pedal and is a (insert expletive of choice) to get at. iirc the spring assy comes out with the assembly and can be easily removed with pedal in the 'down' position. disconnecting the master cylinder is via 2 plastic 'tangs' on either side of the plunger. hth J.
  15. I have one, very slight crease at front edge (very slight) and door lock doesn't work. In silver removed from '04 vrs. PM if interested.
  16. If i can keep my Fabia on the road long enough i'll be up for it.
  17. Just got Sachs clutch and fly off ebay for £329 and got £15 off that with a paypal offer voucher. Euro car parts are doing the sachs concentric slave for about £22 at the mo'
  18. You can change the pipe seals separately, not necessarily pipe change.
  19. Have a yellow one on my 4x4 1.8t. Noticeably more noise on tick over. Not tried a red one myself.
