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,

            • Got some new tyres:
              Federal 595 RS-R - on the standard rims - I was sick of waiting to find a set of rims that i liked and i needed new tyres.
              With the H&R/Koni, whiteline rear swaybar, seat cupra cabs, new strut top bushes/bearings - feels like a completely different car

                You obviously didn't look too hard. Try heading to the page titled "Support", then pick which cruise control stalk you have...

                      I got mine from Option1 garage, they were $188 each and cost 40-50 bucks for shipping down to Melbourne. They're an awesome tyre, grip really hard and lasted 4 sessions on the track without any fuss and still have heaps of life left

                        Man, you got them cheap!! When I used to run the 595RS-R's, I cut one, and had to fork over $300 at Bob Jane!!

                        • I don't think the current RS-R are the same as the original one though... they're less "semi-slick" than they were (from memory).

                            I originally had the plain 595RS, which I got for $150, brand new, but they were surplus from a one make racing series, and this was in mid 08. In Jan 09 I cut a tyre in a pot hole, and this is when I had to get the RS-R (for $300), as they had stopped making the RS. Visually, the tread pattern is exactly the same, but now there is and extra 'R' on the sidwall, and apparently the compound is of a different construction, but that is it as far as I know.

                              Yes but they are only 205/45/16 and were meant to be on sale..... But after an evening's hooning - well worth the money
