    My 1999 EK9 Build / refurb project - update 24/04/2017

    @ColbyCol - They are Nology Hotwire leads. Thinking of returning them back to a stock set to keep it OEM. @that_civic - The annoying thing is, the previous owner said all mounts were checked before I bought the car. How someone can miss that I don't know.

    Waited 2 weeks before sanding off the logos on the valve cover, really pleased with the final result.

    Suspension Bushes

    Wicked, thanks for the info. Makes it alot easier to source them all together in a kit rather than individual OEM spec ones.

    Suspension Bushes

    Thanks How much harder are they than stock? Did you notice any changes to comfort? I just don't want to make it too edgy / hard to drive. Cheers

    Suspension Bushes

    Hi All Looking for a place where I can purchase OEM spec suspension bushes / rubbers etc. I am not 100% keen on going the polybush route as I'm trying to keep the car as original as I can. Any suggestions? Thanks

    My 1999 EK9 Build / refurb project - update 24/04/2017

    So, had a few days off last week and decided to spend a bit of time on the engine bay. As you can see from the pics, the previous paint job was a bit too wrinkled. The strut brace was also chipped quite badly. Bring on the paint stripper, had to do it in my bathroom as I live in an...

    My 1999 EK9 Build / refurb project - update 24/04/2017

    So, I've owened my EK9 for a few weeks now, slowly been cleaning things up and replacing a few bits to make it as OEM and clean as possible for an 18 year old car. Some of you may have seen my seat cleaning post, so sorry if this is duplicated but figured I'd get it all in one place. Seats...

    Cleaned my filthy seats

    Can't find the exact one I used on Halfords site, but it was something like this... http://www.halfords.com/motoring/car-cleaning/interior-cleaning-vacuums/carplan-interior-valet-with-brush-400ml The key is the vacuum cleaner, without that it's pointless using the cleaner on it's own.

    Cleaned my filthy seats

    So, I've had my EK9 2 weeks now, the worst part by a long shot were the filthy seats. Spent Saturday giving them a deep clean. For anyone who wants to know how this was done, I started by spraying upholstery cleaner and scrubbing it in. Then used a George wet vac which sprays water down and...

    New EK9 owner

    Yeah, I looked for ages to find one that wasn't modded and in the end found a real gem. It needs a little bit of tidying up, but I'm looking forward to getting stuck in. Here are a few pics taken by the previous owner, I'll take some proper pics at some stage.
