Today I fitted an Audi TT short shifter



Also got some other goodies to put on some next week...

Car is in for tracking and balancing as I type this, also taking a trip up to R-Tech on Tuesday for some goodies!

[T_J_G]

Had a Blueflame exhaust fitted, a Forge TIP and the latest remap upgrade.

Crap pic but better than nothing:



Car is feeling strong but found this, this morning obviously happened after the new TIP was fitted:



Things I'm looking to do in the near future:
Fix that pipe with a silicone replacement
N249 Bypass
Dog bone mount changed to a Powerflex jobby
Maybe spark plugs and a new fuel filter.

TIP:

Did the N249 bypass but no pictures.

Got a different N75 to plug in and play with!

Pic of bay without vac resevoir over Coil 4:



Also had a spare N75 valve Mr_Orange has lent me to try, this is a bit newer than mine (2007 as opposed to 2000) so we'll see how I get on with that.



Mr_Orange kindly lent me this as well so I can build it up with a new bush and replace straight away!

Couple of small things to add, rubbish picture but they're Powerflex dogbone mount bushes



These arrived in the post thanks to Rhyso! Only been used for about a 1000 miles so they'll go on the dogbone picture above ready to go on the car!

Also bought this as the seal on my oil cap was rubbish:



On the car:



Rocker cover is also going tomorrow to be powdercoated!

This is how it is at the moment:



Still waiting for breather hoss to become available again.

Boooorrring Update:

Built up my spare gearbox mount with Powerflex bushes:



Oh and I'm due to pick this up:

[T_J_G]

Got this back last night:

[T_J_G]

Right things to do before Christmas. Going to sort the maintenance out so can get on with other things after Christmas.

Fit Oil Catch Can - bought waiting for it to arrive, will replace split hose. (SM Catch Can) - Being fitted Saturday?
New spark plugs - bought but not fitted (Bosch Super 4's)
New rear discs and pads - bought but not fitted
New front discs and pad - upgrade to 312mm
two new front tyres - FITTED - Goodyear F1's
new fuel filter
get a spare coil pack to keep in the car.

Hopefully then it will be spot on for the rolling road day in January.

Other jobs:
-fit dogbone mount - got replacement bolts.
-fit rocker cover - got gasket

And then maybe start looking at fun things again instead of maintenance.
