Pretty sure I say about cycling the ignition several times to re prime the fuel system?

Cheers bud 👍

This is very true!

Yes indeed I think we all forget that pre 2010 was quite a long time ago now especially with how well modern vehicles survive

Is that the bitumen style paint?

@@RJW_Customs Specifically it was 'Thompson EMERGENCY Roof Repair Mastic' at £15.50 for a 750ml tin - thin to 50% (or more) and it covers 'acres'. Sticks like stuff to a bedsheet - including loose rust (though I always avoid doing that) and seems impervious to stone chips. Did a Jeep chassis and no breakthough after 3 years. Worth a go.

​@kellyeye7224 if its like the bitumen style paint I've used before I can imagine it does do quite a good job 👍

@@RJW_Customs Best thing about it is that the only prep you need is to scrape away loose rust. Then slap it on. Nothing else. Suggest you try a patch on another vehicle and see how long it lasts. BTW I only used petrol as thinners as I didn't have any other - white spirit would probably be better (or safer).

​@@kellyeye7224my only concern would be that yes it's covering up the rest and potentially slowing down it getting any worse but will it full neutralise it. I reckon still a rust convertor and then that intop would be the best option I did go belts and braces with mine and it probably didn't need everything I put on it

Thank you, I've used lanoguard before. This is my own opinion but I feel lanoguard is a very good and easy DIY application but I feel it's better for a vehicle that hasn't already got corrosion. So something new or freshly restored. Put lanoguard ontop and it will repeal the water. As for dealing with existing corrosion I don't think it's the right stuff

@ interesting! That’s a very good point

Cheers dude

They are meant to be the same colour as the bronze that Rota use for there wheels, but I went with a gloss finish rather than satin. They look a bit lighter than the rota colour but this might be the gloss finish. Cheers for the kind words, hopefully you enjoy some of the others

You have spotted correctly! If you look back through my videos there's one on the audi when I first brought it back

​@@RJW_CustomsGreat! I'm interested in work on all types of cars, but I own a B5 Avant myself, a B6 Avant and a C5 Allroad. Will check that video out when I've watched the Transporter chassis video 👍🏻

@@4RingsRetro your in for a treat 😂

Thank you 🙏

Thank you, it's a long but satisfying job

Hi, have you got the staggered setup? So the wider ones on the rear also? I run a 245/45/19 on the front and a 275/40/19 on the rear. I found my rears scrubbed really badly until I adjusted the tracking on the rear

@@RJW_Customs yes mine are also staggered.. Can you get the front and back tracking done? My rears toe out at the bottom

@stripfix1979 yes you can, the front is adjustable in the normal way on the tie rods. The rears have got eccentric bushes on suspension arms which should give you enough adjustment. Failing that you can get new poly bushes with more adjustability

@gedmcconville369 I'm very lucky to live right next to goodwood motor circuit so I get to enjoy that noise daily. I probably take it for granted now!

@@RJW_Customs ah that makes total sense.. lucky boy 😀👌

Ha ha if only I had the facilities to do it I would offer it up as a service 👍

Mines a 2008, so quite late for a pre facelift. I reckon that bit of rot behind the rear wheel arches is gonna be pretty common on most vans, but alot of people probably never drop that guard

Cheers bud

Cheers bud, yeah I've used lanoguard on freshly built stuff before, it's very easy to use! Oh no what you thinking boost leak or turbo issues?

Not sure hope just boost pipe .maybe intercooler .Also runs a bit lumpy some times.Had ac priblem last year mine was a leaking pipe watched your vid on that. 😂 ​@RJW_Customs

Need someone who good with vcds.😂

​@@davidmarsden1681even though a different problem hopefully it helped

​@@davidmarsden1681if your loosing boost I would first start with a smoke test on the intake system to see if you've got any leaks

Thank you 🙏

Get on it! Save the pre facelifts!

Cheers! Thank you again for letting me get your yard all sticky!

Each to there own, I prefer the look of the leather and the piano black and would rather upgrade other parts of the interior to match. Otherwise If I wanted it to look more stock I would have stayed with the standard Up wheel

Golf estates for the win!

Hi and thank you. No battery drain issues. The live I connect to on the back of the switch is only live when the ignition is on so in theory would be the same as piggybacking a fuse that is only live when the van is on. Is yours still a pre face lift van or is it a facelift at 2009?

@@RJW_Customs thanks for the reply! It's pre-facelift I think (tall grills). You connected the live feed to the unit to the heated seat switch right, so only when that switch is on AND the ignition does the unit get power, is that right?

​@allanyoung4221 no, so it gets it's permanent live feed from the original radio wiring, it then gets its ignition feed (which powers the unit on and off with the ignition) from the traction control switch which only gets power when the ignition is turned on

@@robbiewingate awesome, thanks!

My foot slipped honestly sir!

No problem, hopefully it's the same thing!

I didn't find it too bad this summer, I know people do struggle with some and you can get a little hood to out shade over it

@@RJW_Customs yeah, I have a pioneer and it's crap, even with the shade. Going to look at the tilt screen ones.

He isn't wrong!

Cheers dude, ha ha just need to find s pot of money and then I will get it in there!

Thank you very much! The microphone came with mine but it was just a generic in car microphone if yours doesn't come with one

Definately wanna do it again just feel it should wait for the ls swap. I'm trying to convince paul to do it in his impreza wagon! Cheers for convoying with us!

There was no way I could actually beat you but it looked good for the first 60ft! 😂 Appreciate the subscribe

Your welcome, it was epic to see them all along on the journey

Now that's an idea!

Cheers man

Araldite is what I used. It's a 2 part epoxy

If I'm honest I can't remember now I would have to pull the radio out to double check

@@RJW_Customs just done mine and the positive in the ASR connector was the bottom black one

Yes it is 1J0 907 543 A

@@RJW_Customs awesome thank you

Hi, so 700r4 with a shift kit but other than that standard. Engine wise it's a 350 small block, 4 bolt mains, stock bottom end as far as I'm aware, comp cams xe268h camshaft, with matching valve springs. Stock heads but some one at some point has had a go at porting them. Edelbrock dual plane I take, 750 cfm holley vacuum secondary carb, electronic ignition, hedman shorty headers. I think that's about it

It's where we all want it!

Thank you 🙏

Cheers roger! Yeah I wqs happy with how I got it, yeah we played with the timing a bit, initially we advanced it a touch and gained a little bit up top, then we retarded it a bit oast were I had it and thays where it gained the most up top but also all the extra it gained down low and across the board

Hi, if you did it with it live and it saw the airbag not connected at any point, the stored code will put the airbag light on until it is cleared using diagnostic software

🙏

You deserve a follow.. I've followed this account From all the members at home . Took their fones and I subscribed your channel ☺️😅 I wanna see more coming 👀

Thank you

Let's hope so

Absoloute savage isn't it!

Genuinely don't know what people moan about when doing it!

Oh really? Rotary reliability shining through?

@@RJW_Customs Lol can I have a shout out in next vid please

@@RJW_Customs nah it turned off for like 10 sec, and then went back to drifting

That's good then! I imagine it's pretty highly stressed

Combination of crazy parts all in one!

It is crazy isn't it!

​@@RJW_Customsabsolutely A beast

The video doesn't do it justice on how crazy it sounds!
