That looks really awesome - big kahoonas dude! Look forward to seeing it some time...

FSH is everything these days - folk are keeping their cars longer and will buy a decent used motor with full history. I'd make minimum investment to keep it solid on the road and cruise through MOT Mine made it to 201000 before being rebuilt and as Rob mentioned above it's probably still better than moving to a newer car as you know it's history - that was my outcome rather than bin a good vehicle (I've every nut and washer receipted since new) You could still rebuild the suspension to stock for less which may aid a swift sale when the time comes. Good luck either way.

Loving that Rob!

H & R with Powerflex Bushes. Fit a whiteline rear tension bar (22mm) to tighten things up...

You could go really mad - like me! ;-) Great project!

I'd definitely fit a rear bar ASAP - as previously mentioned, you've over egged the front end...

Check out whiteline - they do a 22mm rear sway bar. Will tighten things up....

Air mass meters! Stick to Bosch!

Am interested - date/location pending...

I've had loads of niggling issues with them over the years from poor servicing and customer satisfaction - to the point of buying my latest from Nottinghamshire. As far as servicing goes - VASSTECH Knaresborough or Northallerton every time. Can't praise VASSTECH enough.

As well as checking for hose leaks you could be over boosting straight into limp mode... Worth checking out. If in doubt - return to stock and rethink you mapping company... If you change your panel filter - don't over oil it as you'll quickly go through Air Flow Meters...

It's your clutch going my friend. Sometimes the vibration will clear itself and you'll chug around fine for a while but try some in gear acceleration tests in high gear and see if you notice your rev counter rise unexpectedly... Not the end of the world

Hi folks - any news on the meet and detailing event? Am new to the Briskoda social scene...

H & R 45mm drop springs with poly bushes and Bilstein B6 - runs fantastically. I use it daily in the Yorkshire Dales and NE England on all roads averaging 800miles a week with no issues whatsoever...
