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,

      It rides well really well with the weitecs. Sits a lil lower whilst driving of course from force. However 4 people no rubbing issues, speed humps/driveways are fine and even spirited drives.

      Stupid low is .. well stupid :p car needs to be practical!

          How does the ride compare vs the B12 kit that it had before?

            softer, but thats expected between the two. Bilstein always have a firmer ride than any other brand usually.

              Do you think the spring rate is very different or is it in the damping settings?

                      For those who went to nationals today, would have seen my roof wrapped with black vinyl so happy with how it looks. Thanks carbon demons!!! They did a fantastic job!

                        The vinyl did look good!
                        Had to get very close to see the end of the sheet
                        Polo looked sweet. Any future plans?

                          Hmm I think the end is nigh lol maybe a double din headunit so I can stop scratching so many CDs and just use my iPhone.

                          I think I'm done only taken me 3.5 years. But knowing me I'll be easily influenced into doing something else to the polo that I really don't need haha

                            I'm sure we can organise some peer pressure for more modifications.
