What mesh are you running for the big mouth? Any close ups of the mesh itself?

Also are you running the crash bar still as I can't make out from the pic.

mesh is the halfords black mesh, and yes i still run the crash bar as your retarded not to.  

Postman brought me some shiny bits again today...    

 

19mm catch can with magnetic core plug, and meshy stuff inside..   some blue oil proof 19mm ID hose.      may of got a bit to much tho lol

 

 

its spray paint not nail varnish............ honest... 

 

 

a little vid of the sound it makes on gentle  boost...  i have not yet proper booted it.     phone was pinned up my sleeve b4 the video whilst driving police start

 

Looks awesome Gee alot of attention to detail

Thanks Benjen  

 

 

even tho i told my self i would have a day off cars i could not resist fitting the can....

 

i live in a maisonette so its missions getting power down to my car... 45m extention lead bizzle just to drill a hole or 2!!     but sod it... 

 

Found a bit of brushed ali in my garage from fitting the FMIC on my bora so nabbed that..

 

 

made a calculated bend it in (about 60deg)

 

used my Stone milling device to give it a rough curve to fit the cans bracket..

 

 

this is my milling device... 

 

lol..

 

bracket roughly mounted using OE screws of corse.. 

 

this is how it looks from up top.

 

off center hole..

 

bolted on with a 10mm nut and bolt.

 

after that..  i thought i put some of my detailing products into the car...  testing it on 1 seat

 

 

now considering i thought my car was pretty clean, AND it was her seat being the pretty little delicate clean female... 

 

 

quite shocking really..        the in-laws are coming up tomorrow so i will attack the rest of the interior, mite even seal up my leaky doors.   

moved my gauges today as i could not see them properly down by my head unit...   i can now read them without taking my eyes off the road for 5 hours!! 

 

i did straighten it up..

got my cubby hole back...

 

darkage...

 

got these little thingys too...

 

 

just need some top mounts and drop links now and ill get them fitted.

Hmm nice gee... I think I need some top mounts... getting a wee knocking noise from the left. Your car looks lovely as normal!

im unsure what drop links to buy.    dont want to go mega low but want to obviously lower it.  Wondering if the mk1 mondy ones would be too short but the OE ones would be too long.. 

 

Im going to go for the Lemforder top mounts Skoda_saint

You don't need shorter ones for AP's Gee.

^^^thats the sorta answer i like.        sweet... thanks mate

By far the best read I've had in ages. Your attention to detail is spot on really like your clocks in the car. Will be keeping an eye on this little beast. Nice work gee

I'm all the way down on the rear and about 12 turns left on the front on APs and I've had to use Mondeo droplinks, replaced them just a couple of weeks ago too because the old ones were buggered!

how low are you Danham?    worse case ill go SCs tomorrow as its down the round,  and send the euros ones back that i got through my work account.     either way..  my APs will go on tomorrow! (as well as some other little bittings.

a tad dirty..   well she was...

 

I good luck dude! We ran Bowens Fabia on AP wound low on TT comps using standard drop links either way you'll sort it

I like the fact you still have your Brands Hatch track sticker in.

Productive day!!!

 

AP coilovers fitted

top mounts

drop links

Poly  ARB bushes

6 pots tweeked

boost system checked for leaks

general look that everything is how it should be!

 

Had the help of Briskys resident Taylor as well as he likes to get his hands dirty and im a cripple atm.  haha!  

 

Must say now much thanks to taylor for his help and big thank to Bossfox for finding me the AP`s in a Black friday deal so i got them nice and cheap

 

anyways..   we dont the rears first, so the jabba RARB had to be un bolted, top mounts unbolted old springs and adjusters removed..

 

team work..  me on 1 side..

ooh pretties...

taylor doing the other side..

 

new Zebadee in

shock in..

heres a video of my old rear shock...

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^no wonder it used to bounce to the point my kids said they feel sick lol

 

front all made up

 

whilst we was at it, i decided to fit these too..    1 side was easy as i already had the shock dropped so the drive shaft was not in way of the bolt, but the other side was a **** as the new bushes were so hench

1 side in...

 after a little faffing getting the height i want,

nice height hopfully got it right and can clear the pillow speed bumps on way to work...   let you know monday when i buying a new sump!  

 

 

couple of mine and Taylors fab..     Thanks again mate, car feels lourrrrrvly!

It also LOOKS loooooovely! Nice ride height. Really want to get some AP's for mine to see what all the rave is about. I have been running cheap coilovers (Raceland) and I think they're a comfortable ride, even though they're a bit old and worn now.

Really nice car you have mate.

thanks mate.   i had APs on my other Se fab and they felt the tits so had to get some for this 1.     they really are worth the money, great handling, with comfort.     i used to think my joms i had on my old A3 were comfy until i got decent ones.  

 

APs, Diff, and Remap are by far the top 3 mods for a car imo.
