LOL.. I burnt a hole in the Camos on the Cannonball the other day, so I'll be in my Club Tropicana White Speedos....... will look like I'm wearing an all-in-one style outfit as it blends into my Tayside Tan. [] Cheers, Grant

PMSL... You're driving me to this JC, dont be surprised if you find me crawling around your garage at the dead of night 2 weeks before Race Wars in the desert... [] Cheers, Grant

Been fishing in Loch Voil since I was about 5... haha... I doubt I'd need both hands to count the number of catches on. [] Got a caravan up there, after the big house and just before the farm. Amazing place to go and chill out. [H] Cheers, Grant

Dirty thieving bassas..... [:@] Cheers, Grant

Well done lod... I think we should get to know more about you and your car now as a bit of an introduction... How about a spec list... [][] Cheers, Grant

Ahhh, dont think they'd fit over the 4-pots then mate... No bother though... You should keep them, chuck some slicks on and use for track banter!! [] Cheers, Grant

Hahaha...[] Cheers, Grant

As a firm follower of colour coding everything.... I say, leave it black and un-painted. lol [] Cheers, Grant

Scottish Cars for sale... its by Kez, think the topic is - Loving home wanted... or something like that. [] Cheers, Grant

Just to add, 'pugpaul' is a grease monkey down there... Scoob drivers get everywhere eh?! [] Cheers, Grant

Or look underneath for a prop shaft and a couple of driveshafts ?!? [:^)]. Very nice - got something quite similar coming soon too. Surely my way is potentially more fun?? [<)][] Cheers, Grant

Welcome to the site mate, and congrats on your choice of past and current cars!! [H] Here are a few of the places that I've read of doing decent big power, large torque conversions......

The 1.8T 190 was always a 6-speed mate... Easy way to tell if its FWD or not, turn off ESP, engage first, engage handbrake, dial in 6k revs and then let go of cluch. [] Alternatively, you could find a nice patch of wet grass (more bodywork friendly than gravel), disengage ESP, floor it and turn wheel. If it just spins and continues forward, its FWD.. If it kicks sideways then its 4WD. [] Cheers, Grant

We had the very same car... Ours was the 1.8T Sport 190. [H] Very nice car!! [] Cheers, Grant

If it were me and I was trying to keep the mods on the subtle/low side but still going for a custom re-map then I'd look at a larger capacity TMIC in addition to your shopping list. I would also uprate the brakes and suspension, power is nothing without control... and the ability to stop once you've run out of space to use the loud pedal is a BIG advantage. [] Cheers, Grant

Och maybe it'll just need a bit of a work out... the car hasnt moved much since I've fitted it... [] Cheers, Grant

Got the DV ok mate... Think it needs a service pack to free it up though, its pretty quiet?? [] Think I'm gonna go for a FMIC when £££ and supporting mods are around.. Cheers, Grant

My car has a 255 on it, but the Regulator is sitting in my garage waiting to be fitted... Did you raise the fuelling via the regulator to make it over-fuel like a beehatch then Col?? Cheers, Grant

...how much ball-ache is it to modify an STi8 intercooler to fit a late UK Classic Turbo?? Am I just as well going for a FMIC Kit, because they seem to be the same price (pre-mods on the V8 TMIC) and bolt straight up. Only problem with this is, I still run a wee stock TD04 and I'm not sure how it would drive/perform with the FMIC on there...... That leads me onto a Turbo-replacement?! Its true, once you buy your first mod.. you cant stop buying mods!! [] Cheers, Grant

Ok, I am leaning towards fitting it now... I shall let you guys know what the outcome is. [] Cheers, Grant

......fit an open neck, heat wrapped de-cat downpipe on a MY99 PPP'd Classic without a re-map and it to be safe?? Cheers, Grant
