  1. Hey I have just recently bought a 1.8T 20v Golf because I thought I may aswell try it out to see what the fuss is about plus I wanted the feeling of a turbo car back haha so the mb6 is now only used on weekends. So before I bought it some tasty modifications were already done like:- Braided lines all round De-cat Remapped by ecosse motorsport Forge BOV V-Maxx coilovers Uprated boost pipes its good for a daily runner and is pretty quick for a VW has a huge service history including timing belts changed twice. Not sure on what is planned for the future with it couple of my friends are running KO4 turbos but god knows if I want to spend that much on a golf.
  2. This looking cracking absolutely brilliant cars hope it runs as good as it looks! alot of people cant hold back from modding these its just too easy for older jap cars Good luck!
  3. Thats what i was thinking no point rushing the build when i dont want to blow out all my money on it straight away cheers lad coilovers next maybe the ecu will be a year or 2 away.
  4. ahh right it sounds alright to me turbo is along time away for me on this wage ​ The ecu is costing £550? is that reasonable? I'm still deciding if I really want it since I've not got plans for turbo in the near future
  5. Hey all Im just here to ask a simple question to you all im currently in transaction of buying a Hondata s300 v3 p28 ecu for my MB6 I want to know if there is anything else i should ask before purchase or anything like that? He says it has all the pwn components added which i have no clue of its meaning? Are they easily accessible with a normal diagnostics machine for trouble code and stuff? When im fitting it any precautions i should take? I dont really do alot of electrical work myself i usually work on older cars or just engine components Cheers!
  6. Sounds alright to me then Does anyone know if anyone on here has ever used skunk2 coilovers? they look brilliant and seeing as its skunk2 they keep up the reputation but just want to know how the ride is Thanks!
  7. @Jayhoath83 Fox racing? are they really bouncy or too stiff etc.. Cheers
  8. Yeah completely useless, the way forward is integra coilovers mid range price in my head because my bro had AP coilovers for his fabia vrs and it handled like a dream. So when i found out they do them for integra dc2's i think thats what im aiming for soon Some nice Rear LCA's like skunk2 or d2 ones with good coilovers sounds good to me Have you bought coilovers or you still looking @Dodd89 ?
  9. Thanks lad I've just ordered the rear mg zs 180 arb then the wheels are away for powder coating, coolant pipes to get fitted then maybe ap coilovers with skunk2 LCA's so progress slowly but surely
  10. Yeah ive been searching through the mg zs stuff already thanks With the teg suspension is the only other mod the LCA's? Cheers!
  11. Do you guys know if any other suspension from civic fit MB's because im finding it hard finding any cheap to mid range coilovers? like 200 - 400
  12. Alright lad im finding it hard to actually find some cheaper coilovers on ebay any chance you can tell me what you searched? or a link? Cheers!

    Lowering

    Right well I ordered 40mm lowering springs off of Demontweeks but some how my order got duffed up and they said they cannot tell me when they will be ready to order So now im wondering if anyone can point me in the direction for a decent set of 40mm springs for my mb6 or cheap coilovers but apprentice wage takes the p**s so i can't buy miester R's The springs I ordered were £130 so anywhere near it would be great for springs and coilovers well fire ahead and I'll see if i can talk myself into it, Cheers!
  14. Hello again I have eventually got my speedlines ready to go for paint but I have now got the job to find the perfect colour for them and im really picky when it comes to alloys I was going to go with gun metal grey like most mb's have but I thought stuff it let's got slightly different and bronze is the idea in my head, which sounded great in my head until you google bronze alloys and find how many disgusting shades of bronze you can get nowadays and being picky I can't get the wrong colour it will just forever annoy me being wrong. So after looking through many of many colour codes of bronze I found FIAT 750F ( pictured below, well should be) Im just wondering does anyone have a paint code and a picture of it it would help alot! Cheers!
  15. Has anyone else had a problem with mtec discs because i was looking at them aswell
  16. Does the ABS module need to be relocated or what?
  17. So im looking into buying a induction kit from my mates motorsport company they just do import stuff so its usually good stuff and the owner fits most of them and says for the b18 you have to remove the brake stopper and its tight with the pipes Maybe im missing something or its a different name but what the hell is a brake stopper near the air intake? Cheers!
  18. I wonder who will get them first this is intense
  19. Could you notice a difference with them compared to normal or the last ht leads?
  20. Hello everyone, Im wondering if any can point me in the direction to find the best ignition leads and I was wondering if anyone knows of anywhere that sell purple leads? Thanks alot guys!
  21. I would say cheaper ones because a track rod end is just a joint really its not something that can really be improved so in my opinion cheap is the best option in this situation
  22. When you say to thin, how do you know like is it burning or what?
  23. Sounds like a plan tbh! ill just have to tear off the stuff still on it and hope for the best Thanks for the replies lads
  24. Yeah I found them but the ones I found was coming to around about 100 pound for all four
