Always fun. When i fitted my short shifter it didnt have any thread locker on the pin which decided to come out when i was testing it out. Nothing like driving around changing gears and then you can make one big square with the gearbox haha.Ha, yeah... Seems I didnt remove the slack from the s2s before tightening it.

Nice! You could pretend, like me, that you're in some awesome racecar and your box is now a diagonal sequential shift!

Got my Bora back today after a month at the diff doctor.
Tomorrow it will get a good wash and some goodies installed that have been sitting in my shed patiently waiting to go
You can't see it so well in the pic but it is covered in a thick layer of dust

Fixed my adjustment on my short shifter, went around the block this time with no issues. Loving the feel of it, reminds me of driving my GTR.
But, got home and looked under the front guard to see what my wheel was rubbing on and noticed that my CV boot has exploded. Bah!

I feel your pain. It's as if my 'fix-it' list gets something added each time I tick something off!

Yep. She'll get there one day. And when she does, I'll just stop driving it to save myself from breaking anything!

haha. True Dat!
I finally got my speedo as perfect as I'm going to, changing the frequency/impulse/multiplier number to a '4' in '17-Instruments' with the vag-com. I haven't had a chance to get it up to 100 in the last couple of days to test since changing it, but at 60 on the speedo, it now says pretty much spot on 60 on the GPS constantly.. WIN!
