I would be interested to know how you go with the peloquin's, an audi tt owner upgraded his front diff to a TBD and he's not sure it's improved the car from the limited time he has had with it. But if you do both, I would imagine it would be different...

Maybe it's the head work and port work that have made the motor flow better and given it a kick? I have to be careful though as none of that is allowed to keep it legal for the CAMS tarmac rally M2C2 class that the car is in.

The head and port work isn't really on the radar currently, I'm still working on the drivetrain with the new peloquin diffs and Sachs clutch, pressure plate combo as well as the shorter gearing from 4th to 6th which is what is happening in the next couple of weeks when everything arrives from the USA and Germany.

I will then actually be able use the torque and top gears on the stages where as now I rarely get into let alone out of 4th.

Sure I'll be happy to post my thoughts but the car isn't used on the street much so not sure how relevant it will be.

I FINALLY convinced myself to spend some money on the golf, so I went and ordered a whiteline adjustable rear swaybar. Hello lift-off oversteer

When do you expect to have this installed ?
I'd like to know more about the whole processs - do you need to drill holes to fit it ?
What was the investment (cost) and how much better is the ride ?

JustCruisn,

The rear sway makes a huge difference in any FWD car. RRP is around 260 ?? and I don't believe any holes are required to be drilled.

Not cool.

$275 rego, $460 greenslip .. nasty!

**Mr Messy** · 16-06-2009, 12:04 PM

It sucks big time.
Though i was happy when my insurer dropped my premium by $500 after I got married and moved in with the wifey. Better suburb apparently.

Geezuz Messy, thats dear

It's because I'm a 22yo male in Sydney with a "GTI Turbo" car and have been previously nicked for speeding. Not cool.

I assume it's the CTP that hurt there (as I don't think rego itself varies based on age/driving history).

Did you look around for CTP at all? I found even at 32yo and with a clean record, the prices varied from around $400 to around $700 between providers.

Given that you're forced to get CTP insurance, I think the price should be fixed (or at least capped), and the providers can then compete on features (or lower pricing if they come in under the cap).

**Mr Messy** · 16-06-2009, 02:38 PM

Can't get it under $600. You're 10 years older than me, with a car that, while quick, looks tame on paper.

"GTI" and "Turbo" are both killer words!

Reminds me of this

It's nice and he;s done a brilliant job but the only problem is he doesn't seem to know what he wants it to be. With all that ICE in it is it supposed to be a race car or a cruising car???

Last night I went up to Volkspower and left with a bush kit for the dogbone mount, replaced the bushes and voila!

Great modification, gears slot in easier under hard acceleration and I can feel the engine ang clutch pick-up point! Very Happy Customer

Thans Guy from Harding and Dean at Volkspower, an excellent 20minute modification!

Oh, and picked up the swaybar. $279 delivered, looking forward to seeing and feeling the difference, when I can get some spare time to fit it!!
