There all done (again..)

Stage2 map


and probably a new clutch after that! 

That will do for the next 6 months, daughters wedding to sort out! 

[skard]

Next, I'll probably get a late model RNS510 in place of my current version.

I did have plans to go stage 2+ but I'll want a 5dr car in a year so the ED30 will stay as is until it's for sale.

I've already spent too much on it already, don't encourage me!

[marko]

need to fit oem xenons i've had for over 8 months in my house and last thing will be a RVC installation

The inclusion of the above to the mods that have allready been done should pretty much wrap up the handling, performance (As far as stage 2 goes but may add the fuel pump etc. and go stage 2+) and cosmetics and then when this lot is done it’s the car audio.

Looking forwards to it

What's this shortshifter mod i hear about plse, does it smoothen gear changes??

[MC71]

That's a great list Paul!

Have been researching the Wavetrac LSD's,. They do look very good.  Are these all the bits needed for a manual Paul, the Diff, fitting kit and bearing kit?

Have a look on this page from AwesomeGTI's site. Have a look into the Forge Adjustable Quick Shifter for VAG 6 Speed Models and the Forge Adjustable Side Short Shift VAG 6 Speed (personally not getting one of these) and the 42 Draft bushes for the Shifter Kit, you'll need to know your year as they differ.

~~ Clicky here ~~

[Pirelli Paul]

Yeah all parts are for the 6 speed manual, LSD, bolt kit and bearing etc.

The shifter kit just shortens the forward and backwards throw of the gear leaver and the draft 42 bushing kit is another hood complement to this, both together are a great mod to shorten and smooth the gear change and give it a more positive feel, in my opinion combined one of the best value mods you can do.

Cheers Paul

[Pirelli Paul]

The shifter kit I brought was I think Neuspeed and was not adjustable but was a well made item that fitted and worked well.
