Nice offset guage
My car's booked in for a full inspection of the suspension/wheels/etc - the thought currently is that the M5 bump has also likely damaged wheels, and the rear swaybar mounts are probably shot too given the constant and terrible creaking in the rear end - something Heasman Steering failed to pick up. So I'm unlikely to return there again.Nothing to see here...

APR 95oct chip

APR TIP

BMC CDA cold air intake
Found that the AFR is way to rich and the the boost peaked at 18psi from memory but wasn't really consistent so there is work to be done there. Mike who's the tuner there said there's perhaps 10-15kw in fueling alone with the mods it has. So I'm thinking of going stand alone so it can be tuned properly with the mods it has.03 MkIV GTI - K04-001, APR 2.5" TBE/TIP/Software, Forge FMIC, GFB DV+, Powergasket+, Dark Tint, 17" Bora Sport, Bilstein shocks, Eibach springs, BMC CDA, Dieselgeek SS, Hella Celis, R32 Alloy Trim...

Cupra lip is easy to install too. Keeping it attached and not destroying it in car parks is another thing (at least the stock lip is kind of flexible).

Replaced all 5 coils and swapped the panel air filter for a K&N panel filter, the car is so smooth now! The little cough I was getting before seems to have gone.
It is going in tomorrow for a service and to have the ECS stage 2 suspension refresh kit installed.

got my lowest fuel consumption ever this avo, 6.1L/100km from lithgow (blue mountains) to syd... downhill may be cheating though.
so many highway pratrol cars, was probably a good thing i was taking it easy
bells line of road is so nice to drive on while the sun sets, followed by driving through the turf farms above windsor (kurmond rd)
would have been a good little spot to get a photo of the car but no clouds around to make an impressive sunset..
actually noticed a concerning problem with my car on friday... under throttle only at high speeds, seems to be just when i go over 110, the steering wheel vibrates. not violently, but still worryingly... no idea what it is, could be my rep rims maybe...Last edited by McDub; 18-07-2010, 07:15 PM.
