A local garage mate cheers Mark

The one I got has full service history as well, its in for mot on friday so if it goes through ok Iam well happy for the price I paid mines on a l reg as well mate. got a recipt for a head light bulb £69 fitted bugger that would do it myself lol. your car is a nice coulour bud. Power delivery is very smooth like bud compared to my scooby. Mark

Looks good mate, I just bought my uk TT the other day needs the rear arches sorting like I paid £650 still dont know how I paid so little lol. Mark

Thanks for the good wishes lads:-) Mark

Well got my Mot friday, just got the car so lets hope all is well its a uk car with abit of rust on the rear arches but shouldnt effect test, just hope all the brake pipes are ok car to low for my trolley jack lol. Mark

Link doesnt work bud but I just bought one off autotrader a uk red TT Mark:-)

as long as you are happy sound, just got a uk spec car myself with abit of rust like, rear arches ect but hope to get it sorted soon. Mark

Its a shame, if you know a good body shop can there not sort the rust or is it cost to sort all the rust mate? mark

Not my cup of tea at all. Mark

Hi, Well got my TT manual and have to say power delivery is very smooth you can hardley feel the turbos coming in but look down and speedo says a different story lol compared to my impreza were as it feels like you have been kicked in the back when the turbo comes on boost lol. Mark

spot on cheers bud good info. Mark:-)

Hi, after my recent post regarding Hicas, just wondered do you have to change the pump too an n/a pump ect, just I was lookng at the kit in the group buy and woundered if pump needed changing as well. Cheers Mark

Thanks alot guys, top class info. mark

Funny you should say this, as I was coming down the motor way, thought I would put my foot down abit got to 80-90mph and the back end did feel wobbley, looks like something needs changing lol. Cheers Mark

Cheers lads, will get it checked over first, going to sort the rear arches first before upgrading power but good to know you can get a chip for around £100. thing is zed world is quite a distance from Teesside, any were local lol Thanks Mark

ok mate will do, thanks again Mark

or right cheers bud. any idea of cost? not ready just yet getting body sorted first just setting my stall out so I know what to get in the near future. cheers Mark

Thanks for the info mate? :-) should I just google john Dixon has he a web site? cheers Mark

Hi, As I have just got a TT, just wondered what chip/ecu people go for, on my impreza I have a simtek ecu as people say to stay clear on chips and get a proper remap. Also, what type of power can the TT engine handle without changing turbos and uprating internals? Getting the body work sorted first just woundered for the near future. Thank Mark

It was also advertised on the autotrader, bet if it was on ebay, it would of sold for alot more. Mark

Hi, I dont know why the fella had it up so cheap either he was a nice bloke as well he just bought a bike so the wife said he can not have both lol. To be honest for the price I paid you would struggle to buy a decent TT engine, so if it cost abit to get welding done it will be worth it. It is deffo a uk car and did have an auto the guy done the manual conversion himself, he is a mechanic by trade. cheer Mark

Hi, I still have it, just bought the car and just wondered, why people get rid lol. Mark

Hi, so whats the reason people get rid of the Hicas for? Mark

Well after owning a n/a auto wanted a TT, so goy myself a Uk TT with the manual conversion already done. It needs the rear arches sorting, and a patch to weld under the bonnet for the mot but part from that spot on, just drove it back from Scotland. will get some pics up soon, and finally paid £650 what a bargain lol Mark
