I haven’t looked in a while, what you’ve done looks pretty cool. How much are those pilots meant to be? I’ve been looking for a decent set.

Have you got the new turbo fitted now? I was considering a bigger turbo but I might just settle for a revo tune.

I’ve read your thread! It’s great little car and the little engine packs a surprising punch. Yours is a tdi right?

I started off with replacing the rear axle. These come standard with drum brakes which I think look a bit crap, so knowing that the Audi A1 (which has disks on the back) was on the same chassis as the Monte I took some measurements and made sure an A1 axel would fit and sure enough everything matched up. When it came to installing, it was as easy as slotting it up and bolting it in. I replaced the stock disks and pads with Mintex drilled and grooved disks and pads. This is an awesome and easy upgrade and I would highly recommend. While I had the axle hanging down I bought some h&r 40mm lowering springs to install.

So this is my first car, I had it for just under 2 years until I wrote it off into a wall. I loved this car so much I decided to buy it back off the insurance and repair it myself, upgrading along the way.
