    2nd Happy Laps done with a Facebook group, N.S.L.H.

    Also meet up with a 220 sedan (Apr tune) and Golf R with a JB4 for general Practice session.

    Going to look in to what is needed to run in them, as I'm getting waved at (to slow down) a bit to much in Happy lap session.

    Also looking around for Anti Roll Bar upgrades....

      Just received the RS220 Wheels from a fellow Member!
      Lucky for me he had them Painted Black, so are Standard for the RS230 (Black)

      Will sort out another TPMS kit to fit, and then Ill start a Excel sheet for kms/placement/wear (mm) over the life.
      I'll also make 1 wheel/tyre fit in the boot, I hope I only need to raise the boot floor and nothing else.....

      Watch this space I getting, this weekend job

              Made the full size spare wheel fit, had to hack up the foam where the tools sit.

              Yes Ill need to run map 2 now for the extra 20kg of weight.

              Also, Ferret VRS has sorted out the Rear Sway bars, so looking forward to installing that.

                    Tonight on #SkodaWednesday, installed the CTS dog bone mount insert.

                    Longest part was jacking up the car.... Simple install and seemed to work well, not big bangs anymore when hard up it. Still get the odd one, but that's more because of the $&%# roads in Brisbane.

                      • Got a OBDeleven today, so have been playing around with that.
                        Interesting the stuff in the menus, and a few things to test in a controlled environment...
                        Asked for pricing for the above, so that might happen this month.

                        Also due for a oil change in the next month, as just cracked over to 6700km (will do around 7000/8000km)
                        And will book for a wheel alignment next week (Car 6 months old)

                        Any questions, ask away!

                        • Has the dog bone effect anything else, vibration, noise?
                          Hows the sway bar working out so far?

                              Dog Bone you notice under hard take offs, no banging anymore (unless a really poor road)

                              Sway bar has been good, but after adding chassis parts, I've had to sell my Pedal box as the car was a bit of a death trap with the jb4 and on the most hardcore setting on the pedal box.

                              More power mods and throttle will come right
