Hi there everyone, well once again i cant stop buying parts at the minute  :grin: must be something in the air lol.
So firstly met up up with Baxxy yesterday and bought the Cupra R fuel pump of him, on the way home nipped into my local Vw dealer and ordered the new rubber gasket / seal for the fuel pump and a new fuel filter, always buy an original filter the others are crap to be honest  :sad:

Well ive picked up the filter and gasket for the pump, and within half an hour it was all fitted, tried to start the car and away she purred, when out on a test drive and my god its going even quicker  :grin: feels totally different i.e. a lot smoother and not jittery 3rd gears even more amazing now lol

forgot to take some pictures when fitting it but to be honest i didnt want anything electrical near me cos i had fuel dowm my arms and didnt want to go up with a BOOM !!!!

On my way to Stockport tonight to have my R32 clocks coded and fitted so ill be adding some pics when i get back folks

Plus ill be picking up something else on my way home ??? What will it be this time  :smiley:

Well i went to Vw Action at santa Pod last weekend and what a fantastic time i had down there  :smiley:

I was invited by the guys at R Tech to put the car on to the Vag Tuning Stand and we actually won best Club Stand at the weekend so we were all very pleased with that.

Big thanks to all the Vag Tuning club members who made me and my mate Sean more than welcome to be on there stand and to join the club that weekend  :grin:

Matt - Glad you could join us this weekend mate. was good to meet you and your mate and very nice seeing my old motor again. you have done some great work so far and look forward to seeing the future mods you do to it.

Great times as well up the strip, was very consistent every run and even Niki from R-Tech was impressed with how healthy the car still is. First ever AGU 1.8T fitted with a k04-023 to run over 300bhp.

Thought i'd just say a big thanks to all the crew at Forge Motorsport for there excellent customer service, i gave them a call last week to see if they would send me out there new and uprated 007 piston and seals which they did, but what was even better was that they sent it out to me free of charge  :grin: well done  Forge Motorsport !!!


Old piston on the left new one on the right  :smiley: finally fitted it to the car today and it seems to operating a lot smoother, and my boost is responding far better !!! Happydays in my eyes  :grin:

Will be adding more pics of things ive done very soon, just forgot id done them lol so keep tabs on my build thread people  :smiley:

Well once again we've been busy all week prepping and spraying things, and hey guess what they've turned out very nice, and what might it be lol ???




As you can see in the pics ive taken the standard headlamps apart and sprayed the inner light casing in gloss black, a bit like the anniversary spec lights, and im really happy with the finished product  :grin: Plus ive also fitted a 55watt 8000k HID kit, LED side lights and main beam which look amazing when driving at night  :smiley:
