What did you do to your Polo today?

[Stuwey]

Stage three basically consisted of me dropping off the car with the ever-relaxed Craig at Buik Motorwerks (Adelaide Porsche motorsport specialist) and picking it up after lunch. He had a very knowing smile and commented that it was a 'very' quick street car. Quite a statement coming from him!

K04 + 4-bar FPR + tune = OhEmGee!

I'd love to say it was time for a slippery diff, but today I've signed a contract for our new house so it'll have to wait for some time yet.

How is the clutch holding up or is yours already upgraded?

ECS stage 1 with 14lb single-mass flywheel already fitted.

Seems ok thus far? haha.

I bought this car with the intention of leaving it standard.

I won't know if I can make that till mid september as I'd coincide it with work requirements to be down there, and to cover my travel expenses

Hopefully late July or through August I'll make it happen.

greg, that braking shot is ffffing awesome. wish he'd snapped you just a bit more side-on.

p.s. shameless plug - if you need new discs/ pads (or for future replacements) i've still got my new-in-box shipment from GSL to offload for cheap.

Here ya go According to the photographer, I was actually about 50m from the apex (exiting) at this point so the brakes were cooling down.

Sadly, there isn't a well framed side on shot as it was getting dark so he couldn't use a really fast shutter speed.

As for the brake parts, I'd take you up on that but I'm in the process of acquiring a bigger front setup

[Stuwey]

Awesome!

High performance weather shields FTW!!!

A week ago my EBay Volksbits Rear Beam Bushes arrived. I fitted them on the Saturday using a tool I made DIY using endless thread and bearing races to suit. The wife could not believe it worked so well. All good. Ordered 9th June so postage was standard Royal Post and reasonable time 9th to the 27th June to Brisbane.

Bought a boost gauge, no time to fit. Reno's are killing me!

Do you have a link? I looked on their eBay store but couldn't find these.

I had a closer look at my front rotors today..

[kaanage]

FINALLY fitted the shifter mount brackets I got from Gavin a while back http://www.vwwatercooled.com/forums/...ml#post1070358
and fitted new front pads and bled the brakes for tomorrow's track day down at The Island.

Washed, waxed and detailed the interior. My god it feels nice to have a clean car again. (side note: washing your car in winter sucks...)
Plus I've booked her in for APR Stage 1 and some other bits-and-bobs next week! Cannot wait.
