Craig- Why Jungle Backyard?

BECAUSE RACECAR!

I'll give you a hand mate, just got to sort a few things first, and then I'll help you out.

btw, that is a scarily good depiction of Iain...

Google Skoda Octavia gay....

Some good lulz provided there-

Iain, what are you planning to do with the Skoda anyway- I see an exhaust, intake, tune, and some Golf R brakes, and some BBS wheels and a bit of low. whistling.gif

at this stage im doing nothing.

but first on the cards will be ECU remap for some powaz and torkes (fake german spelling) then eventually intake and exhaust, suspension.

the brakes are pretty good and fairly large for the weight of the car. one thing thats annoying me is the inability to watch a DVD while driving. the programming file i insalled on the satnav didnt work :(

if i could find a local supplier that wasnt a rip off ($1200+ for the same part) then id buy here.

ill slowly get there with the mods. dont wanna do too much, the car drives so well!

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
