Re: The beast and it's overhaul!
I've not heard from tts tbh I'm waiting on word, I'm expecting something soon as the deadline to finish is only 3 weeks away! Shell looks awesome interior is up there as well, I'm well impressed with how it's pulling together. For any guys looking to have work done I can't recommend Greg Howell and bernard Newbury enough

Re: The beast and it's overhaul!
when you mention changing the interior, are you talking colour? Or different seats? If so I'll buy your Euro RS seats and smuggle them back in my suitcase this summer when I'm there for holidays.Dannyrs4 wrote:I've not heard from tts tbh I'm waiting on word, I'm expecting something soon as the deadline to finish is only 3 weeks away!

Re: The beast and it's overhaul!
What colour interior 

I love drag racing and track racing. I have had many fast cars and below is a short list of the ones most memorable.
MR2 Turbo REV2 (standard) > MR2 Turbo REV1 300HP> MR2 Turbo REV3 450HP (Nick Name Biscuit tin) > Celica GT4 ST205 WRC 300HP > R32 GTR 425HP > Honda Integra DC2 (standard) > EVO GSR 300HP > R32 GTR 450HP
Now on the hunt for an RS6

Ha ha very funny......
Re: The beast and it's overhaul!
Do you have any plans on making the 6th gear longer as the standard one is out of puff at 189mph and if so what are you using
Re: The beast and it's overhaul!
Who told you it's 189? They lied its 193 and I've looked at various options but don't really need it because I'll never exactly use it. I run a longer 6th in my b5 that's good 215 but even at vmax that car only hit 204.9mph the b7 is miles behind the b5 in terms of a performance so it would be a waste of money I think

Re: The beast and it's overhaul!
I'd like a long 6th gear out of say a TDI car for highway cruising at 2300-2400 RPM rather than 3200 at 80 mph. Seems a bit ridiculous. As nice as it is to pull out in 6th gear without downshifting I'd gladly downshift to 4th or 5th if it would mean I had a very big 6th that would allow me to cruise at low RPMs, give the engine a break and save 10-15% on fuel on the highway.Dannyrs4 wrote:Who told you it's 189?
