What did you do to your Polo today?

Hi Gav, great to meet you and the family yesterday arvo.

Thanks very much for scanning and resetting my ECU with your VagCom. So pleased to have such minor codes and no error codes at all.

It was also great to meet Anthony too. Feeling a bit (Forge) blue now, if you know what I mean!

Cheers Al

Don't you hate it when you get back to your car, and it's sittin' on a new set of wheels.....

Bigger pic, but it's off my phone so there's heaps of noise... Hello There | Flickr - Photo Sharing!

As Per This For Sale Thread 5x100 BBS RS 771 2 piece for sale!

They felt lighter by rough judgement, but didn't get a chance to weigh them as I got the wheel alignment shop to fit 'em balance and do alignment... Haven't had a chance to play funny buggers with the car to see how it goes but I think ESC is coming on faster/easier

Cut off yesterday whilst changing gears, swerving, grinding and slipping of the clutch... end result is I've blown the clutch/flywheel and am up for a few thousand in repairs.

So, yeah.. That's what I did to my Polo (yesterday) and got the bill estimate for today.

Ow. Might be cheaper to get the upgrade kit from ECS.

**WARFURIC** · 24-07-2013, 07:40 PM

Looks like a possibility, yeah. Quite a few options from ecs for the 1.8t.

Whilst it's open, what else does a stage 2 tune need?
Might as well pour money into the engine bay...

This is what I'm looking at for when mine grenades

A downpipe is the first requisite for a Stage/Phase 2 tune. Don't buy anything that isn't list for the Polo as nothing else will fit without modification.

Hmmm, so many options from ECS. Looking at a Stage 1 clutch + flywheel, what's the flywheel to go for? (Daily driving/mild tune, no plans for stage 2+)

Was thinking Steel and 14lbs.

That's what I have on mine, just about to remove the clutch though, as part of the rebuild and have ordered a Stage 3 to handle it!
