First NCT

Postby gabico » Thu Dec 06, 2007 3:04 pm

Just passed my first NCT with the FTO. I got the car from UK so didn't know what to aspect. First time it failed because of rusty brake pipes and no horn. I was happy that it passed the emissions and suspension.
Replaced the pipes(~300), fixed the horn(DIY) and it passed. Took advantage of the car being in service for the pipes and changed the gearbox oil and did an underseal too.
Happy days :) although I should change the suspension soon .. my back is killing me..

Sell the Tein Coilovers on the UK FTO forum - dependant on condition you should get more than enough for these to cover a set of KYB's and Springs.

To be honest i would be happy to swap them for some good standard suspension.
One of the mechanics said that they are a bit rusty when I asked him if he can adjust their height. The nct result looks good at suspension.
Ill have to take them off to check their condition and see what I could do with them.
One quick question: will the cusco top mounts that i have now fit normal suspension or will i need other ones?
