That would be great if it's not too much trouble.
-
Yeah, think so.
Going to have a scout around tomorrow and make sure they are in stock, and if they are i'll be ordering
-
OK Thanks.
Would be better to get sorted sooner rather than later as the engine & box should be going back in within the next couple of weeks and it's much easier to do with them out. So it's looking like a Danish import job.
Going to change the troublesome brake pipes at the same time.

Don't know whats getting me more excited, your picture or Anj and Mrs A talking about "ports"
-
Thanks LJ
Seen them on there too. About the only place i've found them.
Both need doing anyway so would have to spend about half of that (ish) on standard.

Thinking of fitting both front & rear to my Sportwagon. Already have B4 Dampers and Eibach springs ready to go on.
Anybody fitted them before? Are they a good upgrade or a bit of an arse splitter?
Any feedback welcome.
Thanks in advance.

Hello and Welcome
Just a small hint
-
Sod the kids, I want one

I had a 1998 600 Diesel as a company car for 3 years and 180,000 miles and it never let me down and apart from having one of those silly gearboxes that need 3 pedles i loved it.
Then they decided to 'upgrade' to a VW Passat TDI. The rover was better than the VW in every way.
At 14 months old and 61,000 miles (1000 out of warrenty) the flywheel decided to explode and demolish the gearbox and parts of the engine.
Despite it being just over a year old, with full service history VW would not even offer a discount on the repairs, let alone a warrenty claim.
Got it repaired at a Skoda dealer in the end. (same parts and half the labour charge)
and that ladies and gentlemen is why i will never buy another VW.

Saw dozens of them today, at one point i felt completly surrounded.
Mind you i was at the dealers.
Does that count?

I would love to see Kobayashi in a fast car, real seat of the pants stuff.
Just the sort of thing F1 needs.

Done mine, although it's a Twin Spark so there are a few small differences but basicly not much different to any other front wheel drive apart from setting up the clutch rod after,and although i'm a half decent home mechanic i'm not a proffesional and i found it pretty straightforward so i wouldn't worry about it too much.
If you hang around on here for a bit Smaky will be sure to come along, He's the selespeed guru and give you much more info.

Don't know about hugs, but i do talk to mine every Sunday when i go over to do a bit more work on her.
Well when i say talk i mean plead with her not to give me any more suprises.

Much as i love the 916 Spider the only convertables a bloke can be seen in are Triumph TR6 and late 70's Corvette
Otherwise
-
Bloke = GTV
Bird = Spider
Not that complicated

I like the 4 sale written onn the window.
Would have to be bloody cheap to tempt me.

One day, maybe
-
hello.
Coming thick and fast now
-
Stalkers always welcome
-
I would go but theat prat Ned is going to be there and I would just end up holding his throat.Evening entertainment sorted then
-
Just out of interest, what is the problem?
-
Thanks Smaky but i'm miles away from you, not that i think that would put you off.
Not too much left to do now
Engine back together & in
Front suspension back together
Rear Suspension back together
front body panels back on.
Sounds worse than it is.
Main hold up is money.
However if i have any teething probs when mobile again i may well pop over.
Thanks again.

If i can get her back together and running by then i'll go. Fancy a nice westerly road trip.
