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.

    How long has it taken to get your parts from forge? I had some gear ordered 3weeks ago and it hasn't arrived yet. Getting impatient as I'm wanting to do a tune on the car but might as well get the parts fitted at the same time. You know how it is once you've made the decision to mod, you want it all done the next day

      The part was ordered on the 28th of may, so a little less than 2 weeks.... The short shifter was originally part of the group buy, but the first one was delivered to the wrong address (an old one of mine on file), so a new one was ordered...

          Nice effort... I thought about buying them, and they are the only other wheels I would put on my car over the Twists. I would say to leave them gold... They would look good on a black car.

I'm sure there will be a small difference in performance as well which wont hurt, although no doubt most of the braking improvement I get out of this will be from the changes up front
            i'd be doing it for the same reasons (too much spare cash - not now though pfft); aesthetics, performance gain. small rotors give me eyesore. you will most definitely enjoy the 312mm brakes i know i did, and still do.

              FAAAARK! I agree with Blitzen - leave em gold to contrast with the black body work else you won't be able to appreciate the wheels properly

                Get some lighter wheels for the track, i love my Boras but they are too heavy. I''m looking for similar wheels that weigh less.

                          I even thought about getting a set of black ones for the track, not now. I love my Bora Sports, but as people say, they are heavy
