[MiKe1_golf]

yeep, found a staney socket thing for $50 and had someone stand on the brake. still couldn't get it undone till i had someone put a foot on the brake.

[GoLfMan]

looks awesome dude keep up the good work!

[lawny]

looks pretty sweet with the mk3 steelies and whitewalls. are they painted whitewalls or real ones?

[MiKe1_golf]

they're painted. my mrs xp falcon has genuine white walls and you can really see the difference. hers are white mine are beige need to see how they come up after a clean up.

i wanna get some 50 profile tyres after rego

[mrlex]

Damn! Thats looking good.
If you do get 50 profile tyres, try and get the whitewalls happnin.

IMO i wouldnt get the 50's, the whitewalls look sick like that!

[MiKe1_golf]

there's been a couple of times where i've started it up and the engine seems to have a bit of a wobble to it. i'm assuming its gearbox or engine mounts. but just thought i'd ask if it could be something worse!

[MiKe1_golf]

have done bugger all but took some pics today.

[Jarred]

so you got it going for roadie soon or what?

[MiKe1_golf]

as soon as i have a spare $900

rego costs more than the car did

[MiKe1_golf]

still not registered. but i grabbed a set of mk2 steelies as the mk3's wouldn't clear the coilovers.

also if anyone is thinking of getting these type of painted whitewalls i'd have to say don't. they have only been on the car a little while and they are nearly brown now. shame. looked so good white.

[WABIT]

to clean them use a pencil rubber, it takes off all the road grime

[MiKe1_golf]
