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,

  • This is good back a bit and taking the attention off the bbs

    But with those g60 caps you had. Did they fit on the wheels fairly easily. Im thinkin of getting some for my steel wheels, Im just worried they want fit the centre hole properly.

    • Sorry for the late reply on centre caps! Moving house and work has been crazy. Yeah the caps fit sweet, nice and snug. I was worried they wouldn't fit as the steel wheels I have are off a Toyota but I am pretty sure they will fit any 4x100 steel wheel.



      Pulled the nasty tow bar off the car yesterday as well as taking off the twin tips. I just wasn't feeling them, they looked too big I felt. I'll keep an eye out for something smaller. I did get a plan black pipe added. I kinda really like it. Fits in well with the black trim and all the textured black powder coated bits in the engine bay.

      Also dropped the car in to get the boot lid and spoiler painted. Now just gotta wait for my badges to arrive!!

      And bidding on these on yahoo jp. Geniune Hella smoked tail lights. Pretty damn rare! Will look awazing with the black plate tub.

      whatcha think?

          • Unfortunately not, they went for heaps! Well more than I could afford. A friend is going to smoke some for me, he does some really good work with them.

            Crawled under the car and gave the coil overs a good clean then wound them down and put the steel wheels back on


            A friend got me a car bra for it but it fits pretty bad so I will probably flag it

              • Yeah I know man! Next Sunday maybe?

                Picked up the nuts and bolts from the Electro platers today. Just like new again!


                Then picked up the lips from the polishers. Even better than new!!!

                    • Centres, barrels and waffles back from the poweder coaters. Pretty damn happy with them! Centres look darker in the photos. Ended up going with the same silver as my steel wheels.





                      Now to bolt them together this weekend and get some tyres on!

                        • Thanks! Almost don't want to use them haha!

                          Been thinking of red caps so photoshopped a set on. Kinda like them and would work well with the 16v badges.

                          whatcha think?

                            • Just make sure the lettering on the BBS matches the bolt colour (ie gold and gold, or chrome and chrome)

                              Wheels are looking ace. Spotto'd a pic on fb the other day and just about lost my sh*t..

                              • I didn't think you could get red and silver badges?

                                Got a link to some? Or any recommendations on places to buy them?

                                Thanks!
