Nice car fella!  :happy2:

If that list is in order I'd be bumping up the last mod much further towards the to!  :driver: :wink:

More I'm getting used to the car the more the brakes scare me - I think you may be right!!

Defo get brakes sorted soon, stage 2+ on 312mm discs Is asking for trouble.

Seems like it...will see how they feel with stage 1 and will probably bump it up to do sooner  :happy2:

its been a while but finally got the funds to get a couple things done!
Its booked in for:

ITG cold air intake
Down pipe / sports cat   
Non-res miltek cat back
REVO stage 2 update

I had planned to go Stage 2+ (HPFP and THS intercooler as well) but thought this money might be better spent on new brakes and engine mounts/anti-lift kit so that the car doesn't try killing me with the tiny brakes on the standard ed30!

pictures to follow when its done!

Cheers,
Sean

Couple pics to keep you interested until everything is done! My mate and I took a trip up to the top of Hartside (near Penrith) one of the best driving roads in the UK!!

Few other small bits done whilst saving for the big job. I have done:

Black rear valance/exhaust surround
MTEC headlight & side lights
Edition 30 badge on front grill
LED number plate bulbs with full kit from Matt (on eBay) Still need to get round to doing the interior bulbs!

Awesome dude!

I am also looking at upgrading the breaks.
S3/r32 set up seams to be a good set up to have.

Yeah when i went stage 2 i went for the Cupra K1 kit, same size size but already have the red calipers so keeps the OEm look on the gti nicely, only as it saved me painting them and actually the kit i found was a little cheaper.
