Car home & all driving how it should so I am very happyā€¦
Anyone going anywhere near Bideford who fancies picking up a set of wheels for me? too far for me to drive to myself as I am in Wiltshire & anything over about an hours drive & I am near on crippled with my back, really want some nice wheels to stick on my carā€¦
Already chasing a Twin Turbo that I like the look of so might be able to grab that & have a custom project as well as a resto on the go soonā€¦If you spot anyone with my name bidding on any GTOā€™S on the web then please donā€™t push the bids up too high lolā€¦
Oh also still need to know if the speedo corrector/delimiter chip is the same one they use on the FTOā€™s as driving with only kmh on the clocks gives me a headache trying to work it out all the time lolā€¦

Hi @voodooist666 there is a category for posting that kind of request - check out GTOUK postal service.

If you have specifically separate topics on Technical subjects - try creating a new topic in the appropriate technical category.

wow thanks had not spotted that as still very new to this forum & slowly working my way round it allā€¦

Hi all I still need to convert my speedo as reading in KMH, is this the correct one to use?
EBay item number: 400060708192
If yes does it fit in same place as the fto oneā€™s by the speedo sensor?
Could someone stick up a pic/diagram of where it should go pleaseā€¦
Tried to post in technical but just comes up with an error all the time.

What error are you getting, when you pick technical are you then choosing a subsection category, e.g gearbox.
Cheers
Neil

Sorry NAS I didnā€™t make a note of it, from what I remember it was coming up forbidden error think it might of been 403 ?
Well Iā€™ve purchased that convertor/delimiter & will figure out where it goes when I get it I guess.
Will get some picā€™s of it today & finally get them posted on here before I start any work on the car, all ive done so far is make a Custom Bass box to go in the boot with a nice set of 3200 Bass speakers in it & a 5000w amp running them so should sound goodā€¦

Only ever used to having exhaust systems built for Bikes/Trikes & Hot Rods soooā€¦
Is Ā£500 to Ā£600 a fair price to pay for a cat back Stainless Exhaust System to be Custom made & fitted with me picking out all the bits ?
Same error 403 coming up when I try to post in other sections againā€¦

Can you take a screen grab of the error for me, I will get @DeanMarkTaylor to look into this for you.

That is about the right price for a stainless system, just make sure it is the right size, so many companies fit an exhaust which is too small.

Cheers,
Neil.

So should I go for a 2 1/2 or a 3" system on it? as its a NA it will never be fast but hopefully will still sound good lolā€¦

Wait for some other peoples thoughts, but 2 and 1/2 should be plenty for an NA. I had this setup with two 5" ends and it sounds very nice,

Neil.

I was thinking 2 1/2 myself so thatā€™s goodā€¦I am still going for Quad exhaust as love the look of them, but probably with the tips slightly angled down to get that echo off the groundā€¦
Oh I also need to get a Decat pipe as well so anyone got a decent supplier for those? Got to admit tempted to get the stainless manifolds etc & just do the lotā€¦

As luck would have it Iā€™ve just managed to pick up a TT that I would rather start modifying than butcher this Silver one as Silver one is just way too clean & original & would be a perfect car for a concourse car after minimal work, so this Silver one is going to be going up for sale very shortly, I will post full details & plenty of pictures in the for sale section asap, hereā€™s some picā€™s of my new TTā€¦ It does need plenty of work, main thing being a new clutch very soon but its something Iā€™ve wanted for a long time so I am more than happy to spend the time & money to get this just how I want itā€¦



I almost bought this one for Ā£2500 decided the description at the time wasnā€™t quite right, then re listed with the truth a bargain you got there buddy looks clean.
I bought a tt identical to this one with engine rebuilt but there are always faults they hideā€‹:joy: congrats on the quickest turnaround from n/a to tt took me 6 mths :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
