Thanks G

spoke to them yesterday and everything is in mostion now lol thanks mate...
 
Lol I'll take your word for it. Makes you wonder why the engineers bothered tho
 
Can you set yours to any height or is it 3 pre set hights? Also does yours have that system where nomatter how many people you have in the car it will always hold at the same height?
 
Its a 4 way kit, so I can adjust any corner, to any height at any time, there is a ride height - that you can change at any time, and then all up or all down. No thats accuair
 
N8 = messy? You don't know me very well Craig.

Interior looks wicked!!! Love the buckets!!!
 
awesome! the wrap isnt cheap is it. you dont have a project thread do you?
 
Do love that car nath, Yeah just spoke to Luke and kits are between 1.8k-3.2k plus around 1k fitting. Nath you got any pics of the boot out of curiosity, would love to do something with air but costs are abit high at the moment :(
 
If air is to much like it was for me I can't recommend kw v3's enough lower and better ride than standard

KWs are the best coilovers money can buy, sorry Chris, how much are you V3s again £1200 :ninja:
 
i'm guessing that makes the handling... erm... interesting.

Loosing a front ARB makes the rear end relatively stiffer and reduces understeer, although does allow more roll at the front of course.

Some mk4 people used to remove them to make their cars understeer less.

i'd guessed as much, but i'd prefer to fit a rear ARB for a similar effect. in fact i may well do so at some point but i've got other things planned atm
 
i think i've managed to find some dumbos with all the bits and pieces i need. then i wanna do RNS-E 2010. i'm still umming and aarring about doing a Phil, but i'm not sure i can justify it on a car i'm only planning on keeping for another 18 months or so
 
lol i have other plans, but that's just what i'm thinking about now. i have a set of OEM factory MY09 rear sensors that i wanna put on, waiting for nigel to give me a price for fitting those, but they'll go on when i get an exhaust for reasons that will be made clear if i manage to save enough to see my evil plans come to fruition.

nothing quite as extreme to you i have to say. i've really grown to like your purple interior but my personal style is having to tell ppl that it's been modified. subtlety is definitely the aim of the game for me!

Yeh we all like different things. I don't tell people anything lad, if they like they like, if they don't they don't. The black leather on the buckets before was HORRID, an off green colour and saggy as hell. So went purple to go with akoya.
 
and it works... and works a damn sight better than if someone had, say, explained it to me over the phone. definitely one to be seen, and kudos for having the balls to do it
 
Well it works for me, others are like :no: But as I've said, the only person you need to please when modifying is yourself :thumbsup:

When you start going to shows like Ultimate Dubs, Edition 38 etc, you don't realise its ballsy etc, just realise that its the "norm" on the scene....:happy:
