Jed's MKIV .:R32

[JedR32]

Ahhh okay! Yep I've read a bit about the gruvenparts control arms and apparently over a little time the spherical ends get a little bit of play in them. Nothing to worry about but they just become a little noisy.

Yeah I just enquired about a price for the KW arms, but according to the UK sites they are 270 euros a pair haha.

Whereas the USP motorsport arms are $390 for all 4 arms. Think ill order them and see how they go!

Yeah USP is definitely good value for money. I can't see any reason why they wouldn't be any good, they've sold the Gruvenparts for a while so their arms are probably a copy or use the same design elements. All their other parts seem to be good as well so they'd be good I'd assume

Sorry to hear the bad luck Jed & Corey. I will definitely be making the trip up from Sydney for the next one.

Corey, I'd love to see some more photos of the morning meet up. I feel bad that I didn't make the effort in going as I knew how excited people from Sydney were about this special event.

Jed - It's amazing how much cleaner and fresh your car looks with the shaved front bumper and new number plates. I got to hand it to you mate

I hope your MKIV R32 Corey (and others) is all sorted and back on the road. Big shame!

Have you considered 25mm rear spacers? To me, seems like 8mm front and 25mm rear are the best combination to bring out the flared arches even more. Got to invest in some of those on your next purchase

I'd love to have some spacers. But considering they're illegal and can void my insurance should they be found in the event I crash etc. I just can't risk losing $20,000+ worth of insurance payout at this time in my life Maybe one day!

Aw thanks Sal!

[JedR32]

After spending lots of money to get it looking good I've already given it a big ****ing scratch And all to try and save it from the predicted hail! Grrrrr never rush parking in the work carpark with stick up lifter metal bits again

[robbie]

Oh no Jed

Maybe you can get some RS touch up paint and clean it up.

[grandturismo]

That sucks, feel your pain bro.

[JedR32]

Yeah I know guys. I'm devo, gonna be a $450 fix Again. Bloody stupid teeny tiny parking bays and me rushing getting out of the hail. It was not cool.

[JedR32]

Anyone know a good retrimmer/upholsterer to fix it?

[JedR32]

So it turns out that this part of the seat is actually vinyl Any ideas on where could repair it?

Cheers

[robbie]

How did that happen Jed? I'm guessing wear and tear with age.
