      • such a fat rear end. no idea how you got those wheels on.
        I think some slightly skinnier rubber and a few mm gain out of the shims will be helpful

          215/40/18s are definitely on the cards! as well as though camber shims. with uni exams everythings on hold - only a few more weeks!!

          ...although 17x8.5 and 17x10 borbet As are looking ever so appealing...



          theres about 4-5 sets up on ebay.de at the moment. theres even a pair of 17x8.5 and also a pair of 17x10 being sold separately (both silly cheap)


          and yes, i have used google translator and messaged every single one of them. we'll see how it goes, i spreckon they'll look tits. ( . ) ( . )

          • starting to source some things for whats happening as soon as i finish exams (only a week to go, yes i am procrastinating right now...)
            planning on an evap delete, catch can install/pcv delete, washer bottle delete, battery relocation, coolant ball delete (or relocation with smaller res.) power steering relocation as well as a tidying up a few other things.
            taking some inspiration from this bad boy http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y22...s/IMG_9586.jpg
            also as some people may know i have sold my wheels and have a set of 17x8.5/17x10 borbet A's on the way so will refurb them but dont think they'll be on, let alone in the country, before DOVW...

              Sounds like a heap of work, have you got the coding worked out if any for all the deletes your doing?

              Also what cable did you get for the vagcom I've tried a few eBay cables that won't work on my mk4 if you have a link that would be cool.

                using 10w 330ohm resistors to keep all sensors thinking they're plugged in (getting this off vortex by the way so ill let you know how it goes)

                i've got two vagcom cables if you want one... i bought another one thinking my first one didnt work, turns out i just hadnt set it up properly on the laptop i was using. now i have two and both work fine...

                ..sort of.

                might just be you havent synced it with the computer you're using, also dont forget to turn the key in the ignition to 'on'
                anyway, feel free to PM me if you want one of my cables..
