i know these are old news, but i got one in the box with my neuspeed so i thought i'd give it a whirl
i know where it goes etc, but what do i do with all the lines that come off the standard part? and the sensors?
-
there's a few threads on detailingworld
if youve got an old panel give it a try on that to save messin up your bonnet!
-
depends how brave you are and what kit youve got!
thoroughly clean the chipped area, use a touch-up kit from VW or paints4u in the chip, wiat for it to go off, wet sand the patch down and then buff up with an orbital or detailing machine

check the belt tensioner. i had a very loud grinding noise there and found the tensioner had pretty much disintegrated!
-
i'll still drop a message up here when i know for sure its on

2nd tuesday of every month mate
-
would that hook up to the existing controls?
what year etc!
-
ok, so there's no way of doing this without losing the heater?
-
true, it certainly would
-
tonight if anyones interested!
-
yeah rad! cheers mate
-
about to order an inline filler so i can remove the expansion tank, where do i run the line from the end of the crackpipe to? the one that usually connects under the header?
also i dont wanna remove the heating, as i was led to believe this would be a bi-product of doing this...

Red one is actually intercooled its between the gearbox and the subframe off the top of my head.

c;mon someone help meh oot!

AP coilovers are in that price range, and made by KW/Weitec so good quality
cant comment on rubbing, lower it how you want, and if it rubs wind it up a bit or get lower profile tyrers!
-
the red car is a VRT believe it or not, although i think its running a kinetic or C2 stage 1 kit which isnt intercooled and running very low boost
this obv isnt turbod but shows the intake nice and hidden. dunno how much heat it would take in though and obv you'd have a prob with the brake servo and cylinder, pot etc
-
anyone know?
-
really like those, was looking for a set before i found something else
off a polo dune if im not mistaken?
saw a mk3 at stonor park with them and think they really worked
195/40 tyres and nice and low and youre onto a winner!

cheers guys. was the 1.6 neg on the front achieved with those eibach bolts? trying to find out of kmac make eccentric topmounts for the VR but their catalogue is quite vague. would mean i wouldnt have to chop the top of the turrets off to fit them and also have even more adjustment in camber/castor
have been looking for balljoint extenders for a while anyone got a link?
also read about flipping the track rods again to retain the geometry. anyone got any thoughts on this?
but yeah apart from that gonna try and shed some weight, smaller batt in boot etc
-
-
i dont really mean high end coilovers, more like camber/toe/castor correction on lowered cars.
i like to run low but want to retain/improve the handling characteristics of my mk3
already got coilies, looking at thinker eibach ARB's, lower brace, polybushing and uprated mounts etc
been looking into adj camber/castor topmounts like the ones from Ground Control in the US
anyone got experience with these or something similar?
or got any suggestions?
thanks
