Mine looks identical to this, only D Turbo! Never seen a 6 one before apart from pictures on google! Looks awesome at the moment mate! Make this a beast! #TeamSigma

welcome to 6 ownership
Lots of free info on the 'other' forum.Just about everything tried and tested, could save you some money and time?
As in the '6 and rallye forum?

Looks lovely man!
Curts right and the simple way of getting around it is normally fit a decat then just change to a cat for mot but a lot of police now are catching onto this and looking under cars for decats. Simple solution - Take shitty aftermarket cat (not the genuine one, if it still works, they are worth a fair bit and becoming rocking horse poo), gut it and weld a straight pipe in. Job jobbed.
Ok, what's the punishment? A fine?

So it won't be as clean at the back?
Come to a meet and see it up close and personal
#TeamSigma that I am the leader of.

I would assume if the copper was really being an arse, it could be 3 points and £60 but i would imagine it would just be a case of getting it reinspected in 7 days.

Yeah called it a 7 day wonder round my way just have to go the copshop and prove you have sorted it
Yeah 6/rallye forum is a wealth of knowledge and seems to get quite a few bargains on there aswell as hi speced 6/rallye breaking.
RE: Phase 1 Sigma GTi6 Project - c.gerrard - 16-02-2014
Put on my orange clones earlier, purely because the tyres are better and spaced out the rears.
[attachment=13633]
Made a list of pretty much everything I'd like to get done to the car. Bye bye next paycheck
In terms of exhaust, I'm thinking of a maniflow system atm, so if anyone has any experience with them, some feedback would be great.
RE: Phase 1 Sigma GTi6 Project - Tom - 16-02-2014
Yes! Awesome!
RE: Phase 1 Sigma GTi6 Project - GTI 6 - 16-02-2014
Lovely ph1 Gti 6 the orange clones make it look horrible lol
RE: Phase 1 Sigma GTi6 Project - 7057sam - 17-02-2014
Good luck finding a maniflow...
Needs lows now
RE: Phase 1 Sigma GTi6 Project - c.gerrard - 17-02-2014
Hopefully they will only be a short term fix. Ah, whys that? I'll give them a call and see where that gets me.
I'm beginning to dislike your knowledge
This will be staying stock height.
RE: Phase 1 Sigma GTi6 Project - mr_fish - 17-02-2014
Nice one Carl!
As frosty said...Phase WIN.!!

Ok I take it back actaully found one on they website for £295 which is cheaper than magnex, scroipon system s.The manifolds they do look very good.
I had a funny feeling they had gone out of buisness but obviously not
RE: Phase 1 Sigma GTi6 Project - c.gerrard - 17-02-2014
Yeah they do look awesome!
What's are the benefits of running those manifolds?
Efficiency?
Have they been proven to give good gains?
RE: Phase 1 Sigma GTi6 Project - Frosty - 17-02-2014
Leaving it standard height I say they are a lot nicer to drive. Yes they look better lowered but after going back to driving my S16 they are so much nicer to drive especially the roads I go on
RE: Phase 1 Sigma GTi6 Project - c.gerrard - 17-02-2014
We think alike!
To be honest as well it handles like an absolute dream, so I don't want to mess with it.
And seriously cba with torsion bars

Agreed why would you buy a car which is legendary due to the handling and then cock it up?
Phase 1 Sigma GTi6 Project - Frosty - 17-02-2014
I was so tempted to lower my s16 but after driving it again and the fact there pretty rare I think best leave it standard
RE: Phase 1 Sigma GTi6 Project - RetroPug - 17-02-2014
Using VTS springs and shocks gives you a 20mm drop which shouldn't ruin the handling.
Wouldn't really want to go a lot lower than that though...
RE: Phase 1 Sigma GTi6 Project - c.gerrard - 17-02-2014
Went for a swim earlier.
I didn't actually, all I did was drive home.

WHAT IS THIS AND WHY IS PISSING WATER ALL OVER ME?!?!?!?!
Got to love it.
RE: Phase 1 Sigma GTi6 Project - Tom - 17-02-2014
Aerial needs taking out and sealing up. Or your sunroof is leaking...
RE: Phase 1 Sigma GTi6 Project - Jtrigga - 17-02-2014
Haha nice bit or rain on your head I didnt know this did that, my old dturbo used to do it all the time it was the aerial seal.
RE: Phase 1 Sigma GTi6 Project - c.gerrard - 17-02-2014
It's not over my head haha, drips right onto my leg, arm and most annoyingly the steering wheel. Just driving along and it was slipper as!
I'll just put an umbrella over myself whilst I drive till the next sunny day.
RE: Phase 1 Sigma GTi6 Project - mikey b - 17-02-2014
Nice car can't beat a sigma looks good
RE: Phase 1 Sigma GTi6 Project - Pete - 17-02-2014
Awesome purchase, The one big regret I have is selling my Sigma
If its staying stock height I'd say paint the wheels silver as lairy colours only work with lows IMO. Can understand you not wanting to play with the suspension though a 40mm drop on good quality springs would be a nice compromise.

This.
Check the aerial first as it is a very easy fix, if not, probably blocked sunroof drains which can be unblocked with compressed air.
RE: Phase 1 Sigma GTi6 Project - c.gerrard - 24-03-2014
Updatey time, been friggin useless on thy forum lately.
Biggest update is the car sailing through its MOT today. Only issue was having different tyre profiles across the axle, which was too dangerous apparently. So quick trip home to my personal tyre yard and that was that sorted.
I was a bit reluctant to spend money on the car till it passed it's MOT, so now it has, will get a few bits and bobs done.
RE: Phase 1 Sigma GTi6 Project - Piggy - 24-03-2014
Ace
Sounds like its loving you back
RE: Phase 1 Sigma GTi6 Project - c.gerrard - 24-03-2014
More so than the dirty shitty diesel
Dare I say it, I think I actually much prefer it on the balance of things...
RE: Phase 1 Sigma GTi6 Project - 7057sam - 24-03-2014
Glad to see it passed mate
whats the long term plan?
Phase 1 Sigma GTi6 Project - Jtrigga - 24-03-2014
Glad to see it got through mate kept meaning to text you see how you was getting on. What's the next plan?
