Thanks m8!

The only thing i've done in these few months is painting the drum brakes matt black, so the alloys stand out even more. I'm thinking about painting the front calipers red as yours... not shure though.

Just springs

Ok, i finally got my hands on some 15" TSW Hockenheim (2 of them need a little refurbishing), looks REALLY better than before, i also got a new head unit (Pioneer DEH-P6950IB) and a new air filter (NWD Performance). The new exhaust looks great in this pics. http://i44.tinypic.com/5y918h.jpg htt...

It's looking really good!

I like the red calipers... maybe i'll do that on my car someday


I know you've heard this a lot, but... lower it! cheers!

Is 6n's 1.4 16v engine too different from 6n2's 1.4 16v?

That's because i found this manifold for 6n 16v 1.4



will it fit my 6n2 1.4 16v?

Got a handmade high flow muffler (made in a garage where they only work on mufflers and exhausts) and added the double exhaust tip, the result sound is lower than stock but not very loud, so i was very pleased with the result.

Just installed a new exhaust system, here some pics:





Better photos soon
