Hi Rich

I am going to GTI International on Sunday, is that when you are going up there?

Still haven't done the cambelt, although the page you did for me was helpful-except for the diagrams wern't visible. I could have done with seeing the diagrams although my mate is going give me a hand with it next week, using drill bits like you suggested.

Thanks for the info on that one mate.

Lee

Hi Lee,
It looks like I'm going to be travelling up with 'project87' for Saturday and Sunday, camping overnight. If we have room in Ben's car, I'll bring it.......we might be tight for space, especially if we want to bring goodies back.
Just had a look at my post for the cambelt and I see what you mean about the pictures not coming out......I thought I had fixed that. I'll have another go at it tomorrow.
We will all have to arrange to meet up.

Hi Ash,
tricky one that as I think you'll find that even the standard exhaust melts the steering boot over a period of time.
Only thing I can think of is to fabricate a heat shield?

I'm going to bring my drilled airbox to the show. Ben is hoping to get his Mk2 into the sprint, if we can get 2 goes at it, we'll change the airbox over........see if we notice a differnce in times.  :P

Ok cheers that would be really good, as long as you & Ben can fit it in his car!

Done that Lee.
I'm pretty sure we'll fit it in, its coming back we might have a problem (depending on how many goodies we get, I'm after a dashboard) so you're welcome to the airbox afterwards.
See you there. ?;D

I have now fixed the link so that the diagrams should work. If they still don't work try hitting 'Ctrl' and 'F5' at the same time.
Not sure why it didn't work in the first place........but thats computers I guess.
Hope I'm not too late.
