Glad to see something is happening again, Neil. We missed you..

It should be there if all goes to plan, but only as a spectator this year.

Just a joke, i'm not having a real shot at club veedub.

I'm spending my coin on all go go parts and not show parts... After negotiations failed with a raised surface on the road, half of my plastics are now shattered across Taree at the moment.

She will make an appearance at the nats, but only as a spectator.

Picked up the car today from loon. After giving her a good service, he also squeezed in my new LSD, 14lbs fly wheel, ECS clutch, ECS pulleys.

I LOVE my new diff! 1st gear is now useable (for the time being) and jumping on the gas when cornering has never been so much fun. Next up comes the turbo and a re-tune, then a few more minor cosmetic things and she's done.

For those considering doing their diff, I highly recommend it.

I was also expecting a bit of chatter from the light flywheel but there's none of that either. I'd love to throw my 16's back on and take her for a burn but even with the 19's you can still feel the difference.

Now to let my bank account balance recuperate a bit and then it's turbo time.

[Yevvy]

sounds like it was worth it mate

[dubbed]

You lucky sod! Were the pulleys worth it?

Lol, they are a cosmetic mod. Sure, they are lighter but the difference would really mean stuff all. I cant even remember how much I paid for them, but I got a whole heaps of stuff from ECS so I thought why the hell not.

Glad you are happy mate.

Just For Info the rest of you, fitting this LSD was the hardest job EVER

There are differences between the Aussie Gearbox and the US kit, that required a quick visit to a machinist.

The car certainly seemed to accellerate faster in 1st though

I tested the cornering out on the bends there at elderslie just before the bypass.

My step dad approved too. He to her for a burn around ellis lane.

Cool. If I ever win the lotto I'll be coming for one of these, a BT conversion and lots of other goodies.

That, and it's be fun to give you $30k and say build something mental!

30K wont get you far, and if you did win the lotto you would be better off to buy a fast car and awd anyways.

[Mr Messy]

If I did win stupd money I'd have something Italian and expensive and an Audi S8 V10 (decatted too) but keep the golf as a 200+kw runabout.

I reckon Matt could build a fourth something very looney For $30k.
VRT Ibiza with Brembos etc? MKII with 6 speed 2.0T? Could be fun.

A new little project. More details to come soon. These will be for going mega low, inspired by the vortex stance thread and peer pressured by Wabit...

[Water Boy]

Very nice... 16x?
