What is a JB4 exactly?

It's a piggy back unit for the ecu, and increases the hp/torque.
It's a good system from what I've read up on. It's advantage is that it can be removed, not like a flash tune, where you need to go back to the dealer.

Sorry to anyone that was keen.
I've been asked to stop taking orders for the group buy.
Any one keen will need to go directly to autoinstruct.

Empty your inbox ferret - I'm trying to respond to your last PM!

If any one missed out on the JB4 Group Buy,
PM dugson, he has a JB4 unit and Cable he would like to pass on.

Would 17 inch Wheels fit over the front RS Brakes?

Looking at cheap wheels for Track days
17s with good rubber is way cheaper than 18/19s

Wouldn't see a problem, the brakes aren't that big! If you had some Brembos or the like it would be a different story

It's not so much the size of the rim more the clearance between the back of the spokes and the caliper you need to check.

Yea, the 18in wheels have about an inch or so to the front brake caliper.
Ill keep an eye out and see what I can find.
I might measure the distance from the centre line of the Hub to the brake caliper.

Ask at BriSkoda.

17" should fit on the 330mm (??) fronts. I know for a fact that 16" fit on the old 312mm fronts of the Mk2 vRS.

Good Plan brad, as they all fit winter wheels

I was more so pointing out the gap (or lack of) like the pictured below.

How are you and Ferret getting on with the JB4? Have you done any logging/tuning with George @ BMS?

[HPRS230]

Has anyone done a fuse tap in a mark 3 Oct?
After power while ignition on. Only ones I can find is
clutch/start stop - mini
Rear wiper - normal size

But you can't get a fuse tap as other larger fuse type things are in the way.

Any help cheers


Edit:
Seems like spot 48 (not assigned) might work. Will keep you posted

Edit 2:
Yip that seems to work.
