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,

      • Woo Hoo! Tyres!

        Shipped in 5 days from tirerack.com

        I would have bought local but Toyo don't bring this size into Australia.

        Plan is to use these for wet and dry until I save up for a set of Hoosiers for dry use then these will be used for rain days.

        With a bit of luck I'll have some wheels to put them on this weekend.

          • I see great minds think alike hey Pete, I have a 2012 Rok to tow my rally car and it gets vinyl wrapped this week in the VW motorsport race support colours. It's a great support car for a great race car.

                    • Wheels are done. The powdercoat ended up a little darker than I thought it would, I'll do the next set in a lighter shade.

                      Offset works out really well.

                      Final measurement is 15" x 8" et0





















                      Made up a bracket for the high pressure fuel filter. These hose fittings sure add up quick.
