Just to inform the both of you there are quite a few seats around at the minute that would be quicker than the ST170 and RS2000, the grey one and also a blue seat cupra R, both very rapid indeed, and if it was one of those there is nothing to be ashamed of as they are well tuned!

Anyway, Niall it is looking absolutely stunning, dave wants to come up and see it.

 

Bring on the Throttle bodies
no probs. will give u a shout in a couple of weeks hopefully it will be on its wheels by then

 

I think it was the blue cupra R, older shape one?

Bring on the throttle bodies is right

 

nice very nice m8

 

i was expecting some form of porn by the title of this thread

 

sorry to disappoint you m8, ill try & get some naked women draped over it the next time

 

Oh yes indeedily, show all these turbod poofs how its done

 

Turbo poofs

 

I think this thread requires some more pictures of your car Niall!

 

soon lads, very very soon

 

This is one of my favourites

 

have to agree with you on that. want to take some when it goes back on the road next month & send em off to Fast or Performance Ford & see if either of them is interested in a feature

 

Nice! It should get a feature no problem.

 

what about getting a few pics of your own up here. I hear the postman has worn a track in your driveway with all the pruck he's been delivering

 

Lol loads of silly stuff just. Wheels and APs should be ordered tomorrow and i have to tie in with John to get the bodywork tidied up, then the pics will appear Hopefully getting a company car/van for the summer which will allow me to have the car off the road for long periods to go all bufty on it

 

i thought u already had the wheels/ap's ?
did u go for 300mm? if so, i have my rear discs for sale due to another change of plan, going cheap

 

Nope got screwed over by the postal stike Loan only goes through tomorrow. Going for 330mm Discs with CP5200 4 pots and 17"x7 1/2" 5 spoke MOs in anthracite.

What are you doing brake wise? Thought you had settled on 6 pots?

 

slight technical prob with the front discs, cant get em x drilled so have to go for 7 grooved ones. now got to change rear discs to match
brake set will hopefully be here by the weekend & wheels in about 2-3 weeks. might go to this show @ eglinton on the 2nd of april weather permitting

 

Ahhh so just a small problem then Have to get a look at the brakes when they arrive

What is this eglinton show?

 

Paul put a post on the NI site about it. some classic show with the RS club invited to attend. bit of a trek but might be good fun if a few of us go

 

We could get a good few cars up i'm sure, so as you say it will be a laugh.

 

Cool niall, just give me a shout and we will both mission up, I should have the focus rs by then so ill take you out for a blast in it...

and david, if it was the blue old shape cupra R, yes its very quick indeed and it isnt standard so nothing to be ashamed about...

 

must have some patiance to get all the right bits and get them back together to look like that.

looks stunning.

 

Patience and money....

The man is (or must be) loaded....

 

~Any update niall?
