Good to see you again yesterday, Mat.

It's not the first time I've heard someone say they wish they'd installed a 'proper' diff much earlier. It's not an obvious mod nor one which appears to represent VFM, particularly as it's not exactly saleable later. But, we live in the now, and the driving enjoyment as you've instantly discovered is beyond valuing in money terms imo.

well little update  :innocent:

took the car in to Vwr for a good going over as after the diff went it i had a little bit of clutch slip on boost 9  :signLOL: so wound it down a little while i was going to europe in the car for some fun  :driver:, booked the car in for a full new clutch fitted so had a new paddle clutch

and also the uprated pressure plate as i was on a stock one before so now my peddle is nice and stiff  :laugh:

also had the cam follower and fuel pump seal replaced

but the one on the car was still perfect but changed it anyway.

had a full service all filters changed and the plugs done and had coil packs done and had Simon change the cam belt and tensioners and also had the water pump done as it was chirping on start up  :rolleye:.While it was on the ramps Simon replaced my rear KW v3 shocks as one had leaked so kw replaced them both for me thanks to Mat   :notworthy:.Simon also went around my car and checked everything twice and made sure the car drove how it should and also replaced one of the little strings that hold the parcel shelf in place when you open the boot lid  :notworthy: this was something he noticed was broken so just sorted it  :drinking: and also had my TRS tow hooks fitted too (will post a pic later of that )

all in so happy with the level of service from Mat and Simon top work as ever guys  :notworthy:

more updates soon  :evilgrin:
