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,

    • they are 35mm springs so it's MEANT to be a 20mm drop for GTI's (35mm from standard Polo height and GTI's are 15mm lower than standard Polo's.... you do the math ), but they definitely look lower than 20mm, i'd confidently say mine are 25mm+ lower. as for high how off the ground....about this high
      Just a thought on that. I bought a bilstein B12 kit as well as the H&R GTI springs. Why? It was cheaper buying the kit. Anyway I have the standard 9N H&R 35mm springs from the kit and comparing these to the H&R 35mm GTI springs, the GTI springs are heaps shorter. So from the looks of it I actually think the GTI springs do actually lower it a further 35mm. The B12 kit ones are meant to lower a stock polo 35mm and they are at least 1cm or more longer. Anyway thats my observation.

      As to the one wheel over the speedhump trick; I must be a 'ricerboy'as thats how I have always approached speed humps in any car. Its much less stress on the suspension and allows you o go over them a little faster than you normally would.

          • I put a deposit down on these crazies last night...., so they are no longer on the company website

            2 piece Impul RS Hoshino Racing Wheels.
            - 2 are 17x7.5 ET+25
            - 2 are 17X8 ET+32

            These sizes and offsets will have them sitting out 24mm further on either side of the car, and stretching my 205's over them

            Apparently they only weigh about 6-7kg each

              • Had a look at my freshly painted wheels...An awesome job don by Steve(Kadena)...$120 for the wheels and $60 for the paint...




                Just give them a few days for the paint to harden some more, and tyres fitted next week maybe...

                        • They are TT replicas...I got them off Pullstarter for a great price last year, and they sat at my mates place in Canberra for 4 months before finally getting them up here to Townsville, and getting them painted.

                              Mike, have a look at tempetyres, they have them in chrome and silver.

                              they look like this from factory, so good job getting them to how you did Ryan.
