:confused:

I dont know either Jay, never had time tbh they look like a fair amount of work has to go into them with all the photographs etc but have just started to get the modding bug back with R8 coilpacks and Loba pump, might get back into the saddle :wink:

Post by: Eddie-NL on July 11, 2014, 04:15:22 pm: you spent the effort to ask the question.... so why not do one

your car spec is certainly worthy of a build thread

Really? I am a bit of a Luddite really, not great with computers and photobucket malarkey, plus a lot of photos now stored on different external harddrives etc, etc.

Looks a lot of fun if you srart at the beginning though, "Once upon a time.... "

Post by: berg on July 16, 2014, 12:50:01 pm: I would like to crack on, the problem with not doing one from early on when you take ownership of the car is that I dont have photo's of all the parts going on, only some of them :ashamed:

I think the best build threads are built around a steady update of parts going on like Mike's and Hurdy's and a commenmtary of how you found the mod to have changed your ride, but mine might be naff without all the photos
