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,

          • so that bit thats touching the ground actually got ripped off the other day... reason I turned up to the pub meet in Golfmans polo lol.
            heres a shot to an actual fixed part



            also got these badboys to use as parts and a template to rebuild my original teledials. going for a bit more width this time...
            these are 18x8.5et27 and 18x9.5et50something. where as mine are 18x8.5et50ish and 18x9et45. so going to mount my 9 on the front, then use the parts from these to create a 9.5 or 10 with mk4 friendly offsets for the back. then ill be switching to a 215/35 and 225/35 rather then the normal 40 profile so i can get a bit lower.

                  the ground is not the problem, i bottom out once or twice on the way home to bairnsdale from melbourne, and once on the way to school when i hit the whitehorse road train tracks but other then that its fine.
                  problem is if i turn left and get ANY body roll, the frame sits on the drivers side driveshaft none stop.
                  i need to sell one more set and ill have suspension sorted...

                      • Don't throw those inner liners out, if you ever get defected (let's be honest here) you'll need em for roadworthy.

                        Atleast that's the rules in act/NSW
