  • MKIV Bora V6 - Perth

    Hi guys,

    Another newbie from WA. Found this forum few weeks ago and i'm very impressed.

    Bought my car 2 months ago and it was without any mods and in very good condition. So far i've installed KW Var1 coilovers which drop the car by 50mm and improved the handling and looks, Audi A8 18"x8 replica rims with 225/40/18 tyres, dark tints and TV/GPS/DVD double DIN screen.

    Just ordered K&N Typhoon CAI which should arrive from America in the next few weeks. Want to install a cat-back exhaust so if you can recomend anyone in Perth let me know.

    Check the links bellow for photos.

    Cheers

    Daniel

      Welcome aboard Daniel. I realy like those rims. We have a few members from WA so I'm sure one of them will be able to recomend somewhere to get the exhaust done.

              Thanks for the warm welcome guys.

              The double DIN deck I got from ebay, its called Video Navigation System.

              Hopefully can catch up with other VW owners from Perth and organize a cruise
              or something.

                  nice ride and welcome. ive also got the v6 bora and IMO they are awsome cars. i havent done any engine mods as yet apart from a k&n element in the air box. keep us up to date how the CAI goes. Also why did you remove the v6 ad 4motion badges off the back? i was thinking of doing the same but then i realised that the 4 cylinder bora has the same badging

                    I like the badgeless look. The bora badge was off as well but had to put it back on because it was bit scratched underneat.

                    Planning to put badgeless grill later on and also thinking of filling the gap where the big VW badge is on the boot but will require respaying the whole boot lid.

                    My previous Bora V6 4mo was de-badged and I really like thet look. Please see attached photos. If anyone on this forum drives my old car please let me know, don't mind catching up. I end up selling it to VW dealer back in December '05.

                      Very nice car Dan, i just bought my Bora V6 not long ago, i'm thinking of getting KW v1's, just wondering if its much stiffer compare to stock suspension? Also hows bad is the camber after you drop 50mm?

                      Cheers mate

                      I'm from Sydney so would be hard to organise a cruise with ya...

                        I'm happy with the ride quility, I think KW's are worth it.

                        Only thing that don't like is that 50mm is the lowest you can drop the back. Would've been nice if there was another 15mm to play with but then the camber would've been way out. There is a bit of negative camber at the back but I can't tell you yet if tires will require frequent change. Only had the coilovers for 2 months.

                        Also update on the exhaust, car booked in for cat-back system on 18th Sep, once I get it will post some photos.

                              hey sikbora, with your coilovers are the springs on the back heavily compressed. Ive got bilstein coilovers and the springs at the back seem really compressed like they are almost touching where as at the front they are quiet expanded. Seems as bit odd to me do im curious what yours are like
