What did you do to your Polo today?

[Bflat]

Installed some LED number plate lights after seeing some on a MKVI GTI a few weeks back. They were something like $14 shipped from eBay. Will be interested to see how they look tonight.

[sssstew]

got a safety cert done on it, and listed it for sales on Carsales sad day

Ordered a PD160 intake to go with the BMC Filter I put in yesterday, to hopefully complement the APR tune. Also a stubby antenna and racks went on last week..

Rear sway bar to follow then new wheels, and finally coilovers, though that's a little longer term..

Can anyone comment on whether an N75 Race is worth considering? It seems like a decent upgrade for minimal outlay, but who's had experience?

Here's how she looks at this stage...

I'd consider a different disc colour, I don't think the orange looks that good with the red calipers.

I've had all 3, the stock N75, the N75J and N75 Race. Currently using the N75 Race as i like the surge it gives. I'd say the N75J is smoother though but better than the stock N75 if you are tuned.

Haha. Nice.

Thanks for the input, it's something to consider.

I tried the J, went back to stock.

Didn't like it? I got more boost with the J than the stock.

[noone]

Yeah, I logged maybe 1 more psi, but the boost came on slower. For me power the Pog is about torque curve, more than peak HP.

ahh yes the old wash car after come back and discs still warm problem. What new wheels are you putting on?

Hmmm, i've had the RACE on for a while now. I'll put the stock back on and have another try.

Got my PLX Kiwi Wifi today, so I will download the app tonight to my iPad, and have a play with it tomorrow.

As I am looking now, I have to wash about 3000km of road grime, dirt and bugs off my car!!

Tire rack has a good price on 17" ultraleggeras so that's the plan, just need to save to cash.

[MeTsU]

I finally ordered my Stage 3+ clutch & flywheel setup.

Does buying a 2008 Polo GTI count? Not today mind you, but last Friday.

Tonight I was going to have a crack at installing the parts I've already bought (Stubby antenna, Dash Cubby, Honeycomb Grills, Audi TT pedals [Also a Single Din tray for later on with a new headunit]) but it's bloody freezing in Melbourne tonight, and sure enough, it's raining too.

NB, can anyone link me some information on changing over the front grills and the pedals? I've been searching for an hour now for the pedals and found nothing, so I'm really hoping that means it's simple. Have yet to start searching for a how to on the Grills yet though*.

*Found the thread for them, and looks simple enough to do. Now to just wait for daylight...
