I let mine rest after Winton.
I thrashed the crap out of it. Put some Petty in :p
moved it out the garage. but yesterday i started doing the wiring for the ICE install.
talking about the audi obviously. cali hasnt moved for a few days. sitting pretty with the car cover on it.
I picked someone up from the train station, then thought about taking it to a cylinder head shop tomorrow, then to the wreckers to check out a leather interior which is apparently there.
gave my baby veccy a good run today and let off steam lol...
i washed and vacumed it out ready for my sexy window tint job tomorrow :cool:
Found out that i will be able to lower my car, thanks Mat :D
commuted to work, then met up with friends for a "spirited" cruise hehehe
I started my car and let it run for 10 minutes.......
...missed her bitterly... :(
Looking forward to coming back home though! ;)
took my eldest to bel canto event (shes in a choir that performs all over town)
raided the coin tray.
today pulled hole front end off let all the oil drip out of inter cooler and was goin to start taking off the turbo ready for vxr turbo to go on oh and pulled all intercooler piping off ready to flush with taleune or what eva they call it cause the whole piping system was choked with black oil
gave it a much needed wash after my Wakefield trip. I cant even describe the amount of bugs on the front from the 500km+ traveled :D
drove into town to get some greasies for hung over mates from last nights pub crawl. Wanted to wash it today but weather was bad.. cold and windy
wash, light cut polish, wax. EPIC time.
washed it
cleaned filthy rims...took about and hour and a hlaf with 2 people doing it
man they were filthy...never letting them get to that state again.
went to the car wash and got stuck and then went to maccas and now home in garage all nice and clean and shiney:D
looked at photos of it in pieces, wished i had it back.
Dropped of my drive shafts n shaft seals so my gearbox can be put back in my car, and i can actually drive my car for the first time this year whoo hooo.

trawled ebay for parts to put/mod my car.. when i havent even picked it up from the dealer yet :p

used Launch control.
Love it :D See my thread in the members car section for a small review.
Honestly - underwhelming, but only because I think I had built it up too much in my head (and all the VW fanboys going on and on about it). Theres also about half a second between letting go of the brake and the car taking off - so you need to think about that at the traffic light Grand Prix.
Still gets a 1.7 tonne wagon to 100km/h f*cking quickly though!!! :yikes:
washed and put 147 layers of polish on it.
Now it thinks it a nurburgring :)
Drove it to work and admired it from a distance:D
Drove mine to work and it got pride of place in the shed at work, theres only two spots in the shed and i got one :)
Now sleeping in the garage at home....
yeah will check out your intro thread on it for sure.
Yeah i was a tad underwhelmed with the launch control the first few times aswell with the GTI, but after u use it a few times u do get used to it.
You have to get it right otherwise it just goes up in wheelspin hehehe.

I thought I'd pull my finger out and fitted a full Talon GTZ body kit that's been sitting in my shed for the last few weeks.

It was dark by the time I finished so I will try to get some pic up within the next couple of days, hopefully tomorrow.
had a dream that the front of it was all smashed up :( been having a lot of those lately lol I hope im not having premonitions.
drove it to the station and left it at the mercy of f***heads anonymous.
bought 12 meters of 12 gauge cabling to get cracking with the ICE install
looked at my veccy and got sad :( lol
