I still can't believe what a difference the xenons make. Great upgrade. :happy2:
Did you keep all the autolevelling / washer gubbins from the donor car??

How's things? No that's all for sale.

Thanks Dave, yup I now have the lighter wishbones and solid bushes front and back, just need to fit the solid engine mount and we're laughing. I'd consider the 340s but these discs are only a week old. have you a build thread Dave?

Ah fair enough - am sure the 345mm discs are fine!
Yes my build thread is on here - click the little blue VW emblem in my side profile thing and the forum'll take you straight there!

Spot on Dave I'll check that out, I sent your two trims today btw so you should have them in a few days. They're in tip top order.
Quick one for anyone reading, what kind of mpg's are you guys getting? Around the town driving I'm getting close to 18 litres to 100kg which roughly works out 14-15mpg. Is this normal enough? Longer trips I see 10-11 litres to 100km which roughly works out to 24mpg. When I first got the car I was seeing 6-7 litres to 100kg, maybe I'm driving it harder or could the mods effect this and a remap might sort it out?

No update on this really bar enjoying her!
Thanks to FabFreddy I replaced the pcv valve with the Rev R, next on the list is hopefully fitting the turbo back Milltek this week and Powerflex dogbone mount. I'm on the lookout for a Loba hpfp if anyone knows of one going before I go new.
Went out for a burn with two of my buddies the other morning, that bike really moves!!
