Picked up these Silver Project adjustable top mounts, I noticed that Prawn was running these on his A3 track car so thought id fit them to mine too  :smiley:

And with them being red, they should blend in nice with the rest of the engine bay !!!

I will add some more pics once fitted this week  :grin:

Hey there everyone, its been a few weeks since i last updated the thread  :roll eyes: been to busy !!!

There's been quite a few things happening, so here we go !!!

First of all, my new TT rear axel was finally fitted, complete with Powerflex Poly Bushes ( nightmare to fit for some reason ), Braided rear Brake Lines, TT rear calipers fitted with Red Stuff Pads and 256mm drilled and grooved discs.

New Rear Coilovers and Febi Top Mounts were also fitted at the same time, really pleased with how its turned out and the rear of the car feels a lot tighter now  :grin:

 There's a rear WhiteLine ARB still to be fitted will add pics of that when done !!!!

 These were a nightmare to fit, but got there in the end !!!



  Had the rear axel painted red, to match the TT front subframe  :smiley:



  Braided rear brake lines were nice find on eBay !!! £20...... BARGAIN !!!



  They look really nice sat behind the Gloss Black R32 rims !!!  :grin:

Then just finish things off nicely, all old brake fluid was flushed out and 1.6 litres of Super Blue racing fluid was added  :evil:

After months of debating on what rear bumper to have on the car, i gone for the R32 and going to fit a Miltek R32 style exhaust, plus OE R32 side skirts, the car will be going in for a Full Respray over the next 4 weeks, she's staying Candy White too  :grin: hopefully ready for Ultimate Dubs 2014 !!!
