  • Then its just turn to crap...when a simple moving a car to going round the block to hating the car all over agian...


    Downpipe carnage agian same spot ironaically



    Busted open steering rack it was leaking everywhere (hence the stains on the road for 500m back). I've since torn it down to determine whether or not i can still use the R32's quicker ratio in my old steering rack...answer is yes luckily not even too much of a pain. Just need to order the seal kit.

    Various peices of rack and suspension (i'm very messy at the moment specially with the bike and BMW work aswell)

    Driveshaft bushing damage. similar on both.

    Driveshaft couplings. First one on left second on right. Both look shockingly the same. Both had no bolts broken..i.e they backed out even tho i torqued and locktited the latest one.


    Hubs are also screwed even tho i just put new bearings on them...

    Cv boots still spraying grease everywhere. Ordered some OEM clamps to stop that


    And i think thats about it for now. I think i've missed quite a bit tho. Will post later with future plans and works and try and keep this going.

        Thanks Simon, Must be something about turbo boras haha. Although that been said nothing of VW fault has broken yet....

        Current Tune is from stealth racing as i was very limited due to the coil pack design. I'm thinking of doing my own tuning soon with a wide band o2...what could possibly go wrong?

        Here's how the car is sitting now, kinda on the piss


        And the bottom side completely gutted.

                      • Hey bud, can't believe your still lurking around the forums!

                        Oh your car is completely under recognizable these days, both visually and mechanically - and this isn't even 1/2 of it. Hope your well
