What have you done to your mk4 (golf/bora) today?

[Lito]

Can I buy your Bosch one mate??

i dont think it'll work mate, the screw are orientated differently. on mine the screws go along tge maf and with yours im guessing tgey are across the housing, if that makes sense. but if they're the same you can have it. ill send you a pic when i get home

Sports muffler?

Hi
Did you just get rid of the big muffler and not put a sports muffler on?
I have a generic sports and a resonator instead if the wopper one, and I get plenty of compliments about the sound...
Scott

so went and got the resonator taken out and replaced with a straight pipe but now its wayy to raspy on the inside of the car , sounded okay from the outside when they were testing inside the shop guessing its the heat sheilds but not too shore :/ anyone care to help me out with this?

ITS ALIVE AGAIN !!

New ignition module is in ! It turns out the heat sink was not transferred from the old module to the new one. Since I had the thing tied up near the firewall it went unnoticed. If I had the original air box it would have been obvious. (and I probably would not have had a problem in the first place)

Original air box has been re-instated. I miss the noise of the air diversion.
I may do the massive heat sink and fan and put back the BMC, not sure yet.

It is so much nicer to drive than the Holden Camira I've been getting around in for the last 3 days.

Glad you got it sorted mate.

Hurrah, so the amp just overheated and quit. Was it ok once the heatsink was back on, or did it need another?

Today the car got new Bridgestone Potenzas
Tomorrow will have new springs/shocks & swaybars
Friday, new windscreen. Old one has 3 chips and it's full of wiper scratches and lots of little stone chips.

@ JustCruisn ; good to see your car sorted.
Oh dear......Holden Camira, my uncle still has one from new.

I got a new module. I did find DIY on replaing them though.

Driving is quite smooth, but i noticed a couple of stumbles while sitting at the lights today, made me feel sick. I spend a lot of time stationary in traffic with my new job.

[VR6man]

Well the suspension is in, not driven yet as I'm waiting for my TT rotors/braided lines to be installed







Also new windscreen in, slowly deleting the wood grain.I only need a black cup holder front and black trim that sits around the radio/ AC controls.

[dylan8]

umm what model sway bar is that...?
hate to say it but the front one looks like its upside down if its a whiteline... should go under the drive shaft not over

[VR6man]

Do you have a photo of one?
whiteline BAF 13
I look into it , but didn't fit any other way.
There was a revision because of rubbing on the drive shaft.
