New Bora owner

the KW's are a great balance of handling and comfort. I'm not seeing any reason to upgrade them at this stage unless I find them lacking on the track.

The height looks great, but the sump is the first thing that gets hit, and not something I want to repair.
I'd suggest it would bottom out on anything thats not very smooth, so it'll go up 20mm or so

Good work! Is that the one which was for sale in SA or sourced locally?

good 2 c sum bora's getting round im lookign for sum more stuff for my bora so ne links or nething that u can share would b appreciated

check the MK4 section bro, heaps of info there!

These will go on tomorrow, along with a lift of the front coilovers, and a wheel alignment.




Looks like since they are replicas that ECS Stage 5 brakes wont fit, so looking at stage 2 (boxster calipers), which will clear easily.
Stg5 would be overkill anyway, so saves me some money.

I have to do I first post somewhere... and it's lonewolfs fault I'm here

currently drive an s15 but now want an awd v6...

[Lonewolf1983]

Ordered some stuff today to fix up interior parts
Arm rest delete kit - to get rid of the stupid arm rest as it just gets in the way
New glovebox lid as the current one doesnt close properly
new mirror switch

OEM mk4 R32 steering wheel (maintains factory airbag, better leather and proper fingerholds)


also upgrading the brakes with an ECS tuning stage 2 kit:


312mm slotted rotors
porsche monoblock 4 piston calipers
braided lines
pads + fluid

going for silver to match the std rear calipers, and wanting to keep the "OEM tuned" look.
