Had lots of fun with my new Powervalve turbo-back. The noise is just incredible. And it goes like a stabbed rat.

Back end is coming along nicely now it's got the R32 rear. Just need some pics..... @Powervalve Nige could you email them over when you get a chance?

ed30 R32 rear light mod and soon to be skyline mod.

Why pay to have it done when I can do it myself  :signLOL:











Looks good. You got a pic fitted?

ETTO but it doesn't suit the MK5 IMO. The MK6 is wider and more square looking, hence why the lights suit it.

As long as you're happy though  :happy2:

I like the overall look, just think they're a bit dark for the red. Googled it, and think it looks awesome on a black mk5 gti. Wonder what it would like on my steel grey gti... hmmm....

Yeah a bit too dark when off maybe. You say better on a black gti and I said tgat to the chap I got them off as he had them on his black gti but though there was too much black haha

If i read this correctly?, Yes Dave just found a good deal and went for it. My painting and mod looks exactly the same as the ed 30 ones but having oem ones are even better and for £20 the full set it's all the better as I don't have to pay £58 for a new set of outer cherry red ones   :happy2: :wink:

My mod on top and genuine ones below. not very clear but they're an exact match although my wife says the reverse lense is a different shade  :rolleye:

Took the tape off the intake and gave the engine bay a good clean and dress, gave the car a good clean inside and out also.

Very much mate, just aching to get it out on track now. If the TD's and tyres come next week and the weathers good I might have to go to Silverstone on the 22nd  :party:

Touch wood it stays dry for you mate! It's a nice temperature at the minute during the day, not too cold for the tyres but cold enough for a good charge temp.

Definitely going for a hybrid k03 myself after reading your progress

Cheers, yeah it definitely transforms the car, and with the new BBT one that R-tech have been playing with you can reach nearly K04 numbers if you want and keep standard injectors.
