I never replied to this, thanks Rob

I’m confused, if you know it’s a 1996 and not a 1998 as you said in your first post, what is actually the question you need help with?

I’m after a J spec bonnet to take my UK one off and go own.

That will be a 1996 crossover not 1998. DVLA will have the year it was first registered in the UK. Mine is a 1994 pre facelift but DVLA have it as a 2001 as that’s when it came to the UK.

Was this brand new before the 500 road miles? Or has it done 100k before that?

These are for the NA aren’t they? I had them on mine years ago and always wanted them on my TT but they didn’t do wide enough rears

Old thread revival I know. But, does anyone know the difference between the two parts? 52527-14060 Is the correct one to use with an active spoiler but is no longer available. Can 52527-14050 be used in its place? for anyone else reading this I think I may have worked it out. The non-active spoiler version has 5 threaded parts to go through the bumper, the active spoiler one has 3. I have ordered the available one in the hope I can just cut the extra 2 off. I will update this to help others in future.

Also…another part number that keeps coming up is 52525-24030 which I think I have 2 of? The description seems to be the same as the other part…front bumper centre lower…is that the same part as the discontinued one? Or does it go somewhere else? Putting the genuine bumper back on after years

anyone deleting their aircon, can I have your aircon fan

what mileage has it covered?

I am putting my car back to as OEM as possible after years of messing around with bits here and there so am looking for some bits I have given away over the years: Aerotop boot carpet with sub cut out GZ spec rear speaker pods Puresport floor mats Main dash without the normal vinyl split along the front vents ODO standard Green Gel (to reverse my blue LED conversion) I am also looking for the original aircon fan and Powersteering cooler if anyone has them too. Hoping someone has all this in a box in the garage

Wow, I have just been given my 1 year award and am ranked as 'Newbie'. Not bad, I have only been a member for 17 years to achieve this

Just been reading on the over the pond site, people running 22psi (slightly over 1.5bar) on stock twins?! I have never upped my boost despite my car being bpu, just no boost controller. I think I remember reading 1.2 is about where people set it too, is that right? would that make much of a difference to your dyno? If you had 1.2 instead of 1.1?

Is 1.1 not pushing it a bit on j-spec turbos?
