  1. Windows are tinted when the car comes from the manufacturer, this is usually the 30% your aloowed. Ill try and find the link where I read this.
  2. I had 70% tints all round on mine and never had any trouble seeing at night. Would be tempted to get them done on my Zed. How much did you pay if you dont mind me asking?
  3. You would be OK to do it on a Coupe. I thought that anything on the front windows were illegal though? I had tints on one of my old car and on the right colour car they look superb.
  4. Would that be the same for ST or TT? Obviousley theres more stress on the engine but id like to get away with not spending silly amounts on internals
  5. We should definaltey have a SW meet. A bit cold at the moment though
  6. My Ibiza went from 180bhp to 206bhp on stage 1 map. Think stage 2 with exhaust/filter would see about 230
  7. Its a Remap/ECU tuning, best mod you can do on VAG cars for about £500. On my Cupra I gained about 25bhp for £470.More imprtantly a load more torque. Basically plug a REVO Switch into the Serial port and can be switched on/off and tweaked. Undetectable to dealers/insurance companies when switched off. http://www.revotechnik.com/products/sof ... x?pvID=583 £499 for 55bhp according to their figures
  8. :bye: Are you planning on getting REVO for the A3? Would get it a lot closer to the Zed

    Tomorrows the Day

    The Zed is definatley deceptive. It doesnt feel quicker than the Cupra but it is so much smoother. When I was driving home from the garage I was crusig at about 85 and it felt like I was doing about 50. In the Cupra you know your doing those kind of speeds but it was so relaxed in the Zed. Just need to get used to having a 6th gear and to use it a bit more.
  10. Always wanted to use that first
  11. Black roadster this afternoon about 2.40ish on the A4232 link road.
  12. Im sure I read somewhere that Toyota were pulling out of the sports car market, which is why the Celica and MR2 have stopped production and no replacements were planned. That Supra is super ugly though and if it looks much like that I cant see many going for that over the GTR
  13. Look great
  14. How would the standard internals stand up to this kit? Been thinking more towards a Single turbo rather than a twin. Would this kit give more scope to big turbo in the future? Whats the price on the plenum and exhaust? Just curious for the when I eventually go down the FI route.
  15. My mate has got a M3 EVO, its a great car. Id quite happily have an M3 or 3 Series coupe. My uncle sold an M3 convertible last year but I couldnt afford the insurance on it or id probably be driving that now - I think I made the roght choice though
  16. A week of sleepless nights then not a month
  17. Went out to the car this morning & the window was working fine . Yesterday I left the window down and locked the car, later I went out to the car to get something and set the alarm off (forgot i locked it). Would this have caused an issue with opening the window? I set the alarm off by putting my hand through the window
  18. A month of sleepless nights then . Well worth the sleepless nights when you get it though
  19. Looks great

    Here She Is

    I wasn't to sure about them either, was originally looking for black leather. After seeing them in the flesh though they really brighten up the interior.

    Here She Is

    Not had a chance to clean it yet
  22. Will phone the garage in the morning and get them to sort it. Hope thats all it is
  23. Went out in the car tonight and found that my drivers side window has stopped opening, it doesnt drop when the door is opened now either. Im guessing that it will need the window reset procedure done?? Are both windows controlled by the same fuse?? Had a look through the manual earlier but couldnt find anything about which fuses are which.
  24. Only 176 sets in the country Im sure ive seen more than 176 rx8s
