Cracking set of new mods you've got there Paul :happy2:

You won't be disappointed, I've just had the superpro ALK, front and rear arbs and Alex's famous fast road alignment done on my new car and it feels so much better

Thanks dave, its coming along slowly lol, the plan is to keep the car until late next year/early 2016 then trade in for a golf r or s3 so I probably won'tbe spending much more on the car once everthings bolted on.

what motor have you got now?

update, I've sold the "salk" and front arb as i needed to free up some money to sort the r32 brakes out, I won't be buying these again as after not having the car for a few weeks and having a spirted drive at the weekend, i'm really impressed how the car handles

I fitted the brakes about 6 weeks ago and had no brake pedal what so ever, I dropped it of at a local garage to sort out and after 5 weeks they found that where i had the calipers resprayed they had been done very badly and there was over spray in the brake hose threads so not letting it seal  :fighting:

So after a new master cylinder, abs pumped sent off to be checked and a new rear caliper, i've got my car back, I need to do a few miles to bed the pads in but with each drive the brakes are improving.

Next jobs are to make a custom rear diffuser, front bumper respray and alloys refurbed
