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,

    I'm much more comfortable creating a water cooled super overclocked PC than I am at doing anything mechanical with the car. The intake mod pushed my limits (and left my hands bloodied for a week --- well worth it though hehe).
    This would be much easier then any engine bay work. Get a good jack (ie. better then the ****ty OEM killer) or some ramps, a good socket set and it's really very easy. You should have a mostly blood free install

          Shoot an email off to Brad on carstuff@bigpond.net.au. I just ordered front and rear whiteline sways for $190 each plus $25 freight. $110 cheaper than Fulcrum mind you

            Whitline used to sell direct to public and also fit the products to the customers cars. However about a year or two ago they decided that it was too time consuming and wanted to concentrate on R&D.
            Now you can purchase Whitline products at most spare parts shops, this however will be done via order as most retailers will not have any in stock. I purchased mine from Repco. You may also find that they will be cheaper than the RRP$ advertised on Whitelines' website. Just make sure you get the part number down before going to your local spares cause the retailers are often hopeless in finding out which one is for your car.

                Front is impossible to fit yourself.

                The whole subframe has to be dropped down.
                I got my mechanic to do it, didnt take him long. But then get an alignment done.
