Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    mate so sorry about the late reply.lol ive been busy sorting out buying a house (its hell.lol) as for the bora 4mo, I was on that second leg of the cruz doing a "fully sick" fang up a mountain in 2nd gear did a awesome "hardcore to fast to furious shift" into third in red line and it bounced out of third flopped around and fell out.lol although I think it got stuck in third..... the shifter rod has been disconnected from the bushings connected to the shifter cables.lol so I had to "hardpark" it on the mountain and Alex to whom I am thankful kept me company and we sat in the back of the amarok for nearly an hr watching a cow. I got it towed running on racq ultra and not ultimate (as I was cheap arse) I got a bill of 240 for a toe after my free k's .......mike weber fixed it by pulling out the whole shifter box as you cant reassemble and replace bushings it comes as a whole. $440 later im back on the road ready for my next hardpark at the next “dope” meet at Newmarket and will be reving with my new fully sick pod filter. And then some gentleman’s racing the next day....cough cough I mean “HAPPY LAPS” aka lets take our plates off and wear helmets because we are scared of our break fade doing our “restricted” speeds of what was it last time 180?....oh wait thats me! ......i lie I think I only hit 170.......but then who knows I was to busy looking at that clio overtaking me.

                  Oh yep. They have my email address on the update register so I'm sure they'll let me know when an update comes through, if I don't find out off here earlier, lol....

                  I was planning on having some new suspension goodies for this track day, but have been too busy and work has taken over my life again....

                    I was hoping to have my coilovers in, control arms, anti-lift kit and tune upgrade before this but it all depends on customs now...

                    • Well my car is still broken (I'm just too lazy to fix it and it's in my garage not driveable lol, for the last 3 weeks) - but I am going to ring up to see if I can get it booked in for next week. If I can get it fixed I will be in, but if not I will have to bail out...

                      If by some freak coincidence like 5 other people all bail and you lose all your reserves I can get someone to fill my spot for sure.

                            Sillywet has now been moved from reserve list to the main list.
                            I expect the 3 remaining lotus spots will not be filled as they have their club day at Warwick so the reserve list will likely be used to fill their spots.
