Yes seen a set, just have to see how they're on a long drive to offer a comparative balanced view.

Is it just the front seats you're after Steve?

Yes Charlie, rears would be nice, but fronts more important at this stage. I did find a set but only one part of the rears so I'd have to get one of the my set recovered to match.

I'll defiantly be going there to get mine mapped once I've tweaked a few things!

If you want to get some nice/rolling shots of this I have a new camera I am keen to test.

Sounds great to me Richard let me know where and when. Have to give it a good clean.

Any sunny weekend.

Rob came to mine and finished his 3 week long sub install, and I done one in my mates Seat Leon in just over 2 hours, while rubbing it in robs face with stupid comments LOL

Small update box out, will post some photo soon, for rebuild and long ratio set up. I dislike the short ratio, after driving my Sport for so long I got used to it, so now switching it back. If I can get a Quaife LSD for a good price I may put that in as well.

 

But I can, well the garage can, confirm that it has a SMF and Sachs racing clutch so all is well in that department.

 

Whilst it's stationary some head work may be in order...... hmmmmmm

Current box still at builders when something else came up.... a FJW long ratio box... so quick drive out to the country and it's now due to be fitted next week.

 

So rad, box, top mounts changed...... then it'll be mobile again. So I can stop adding miles to my Octavia.

 

Bonus... couple of parts purchased that will go nicely with some future plans I think.... we shall see what the future holds after some track day fun!

Well look what I found the original ad from almost 2 years ago....
