    • Yeah my brakes squeaked tonight coming into the driveway. I already have some slotted rotors up front, got told they were mk4 gti's, don't think they are but.

      • Nice, I'm up for some new pads soon and am thinking I'll pick up some slotted rotors while I'm at it. Might give some low dust pads a go to keep the new wheels clean when they're on

        • Yeah. I just finished washing mine. Starting to hate rs' now.

          So with a mate showing up halfway through washing the vr, it turns out I'm overly anal.

          I wash my p plates, anyone else do this?

          • I was my p plates or just through them out but now I've run out so will have to go get more. I wish we could rock the window ones like all the other states.. Stupid nsw p plate laws

            • I am bone dry too, luckily im not a victim of nightly stealings.

              Got out to take some photos, camera wasn't being so nice.
              Also realised how dodgy a job i did lowering it in the dark on the street the other night. Resolved the issue with more lows after the photos.









              next will be bigger adapters for the rear to get some poke.
              Started looking into the rieger and kamei flared arches which look so sick.

                • Notsureifserious..

                  But, at first it was hard. But now I know how to control the right foot it's good.

                  • front fitment is spot on man! thought about spacing the rear? and maybe get a heat gun to that front lip to bend it straight again? looking good though

                      Yeah. It's my next thing to do, going to run 25-30mm adapter.

                      It has been annoying me a bit, was unsure of how to rectify the issue, thanks for the tip!

                        • With a few minutes spare today and dropped into the local zorst shop. Nek minnit

                          $4000 minimum for a y piece manifold for the turbo.

                          So, I'm going to run the SPA unit. Gt3082 and either, get the internal waste gate adapter from ATP or have an external setup made. Everything else will do myself.

                            • Thanks mate.

                              My thermo fans have been staying on after random drives for close to a minute. Found out today that the mechanic has used green coolant instead of pink; is this a result of wrong coolant?

                              • nah mate nothing to do with the wrong coolant...... its normal Hayden mine does it sometimes after a spirited drive or hot day

                                its when they don't shut down after a while thats when you have an issue
