You know Alex.....wow small world , yes he is part of our club, in fact he now runs a car care business called Elite Car Care and sells some very high quality wax's , cleaners etc..basically similar stuff to polished bliss...i may be seeing him this weekend to pick up a Meguiars polisher.
i...
they are very rare wheels , in that i have never seen these on any other car before, as they are single piece but with the same "dish" as a 3 piece split rim...they are off my Porsche 944 Turbo...bought them 10 years ago!
Easy to clean, right width...just a nice rim. It is very similar to a...
Sitrials....yes the roof is gloss black and the spoiler follows the roof line with the black look.
I have to say that none really notices the Black roof until its pointed out as the reflection just disguises the black!!...but in a petrol station it really pops!....Audi do black roof cars...
Love to hear what the ABF 16v sounds like....still a great engine...we have tried ITBs on these but it is so much work to get real big gains from a 16v, that it comes down to cost of doing a vr6 conversion.
I loved my car when it was a 16v..it drove so nice..but just was not quick enough...the...
Ess, here,s a closer look at the project car
Before mk2 VR6
the current engine
new wider arches fabricated in metal need to be painted once the turbo work is finished
Big Brakes..need them!...Wheels were custom machined to clear the brembos..1mm clearance!
Thanks for the comments, i hope it helps few people make their mind up.
I think Grey looks very bland without the contrast you get on other colours...on silver the dark grey has the same effect that black does on a dolphin grey...but hey its only a bit of paint on plastic..you can always change...
18,s fronts 8.5 and rear 9.5.
Ess three...i was waiting for your response....glad your not a "fan" it ..i would hate think we had similar tastes...each to their own..
seriously guys....this post was meant to help those that are thinking about this look, not cause a load of i like it or i...
thanks randomjim...i saw your car at the surrey meet last year, did you also have a black roof?...love your A4, i,ll post a few pics you will appreciate
the night shot are 2 of my mates A4's..estates got black centres now and black roof
these pics are from my visit to Austria Worthersee...
no offence mattyboy and jon, not really looking for fans here but i,m glad you like the car....the purpose of this thread was for people like S3 Saf orJoe, who are possibly unsure but can get the chance to see if they like the look before they go ahead with a mod like this. i went for it as i...
on a grey car , grey trim just looked crap, at least on all other colours there is a contrast, hence why i done it black.
pics don,t really do it justice, looks better in the flesh.
Also not sure if anyone can see it but the roof is also gloss black
i,m running 225/40/18's all round, 18x8.5 fronts and 18x9.5 rears
not quite happy with the stance yet..may go a touch lower and wider (with bigger adapters) all round 5mm.
Thanks gazzaone....will post a few more pics tonight on a new thread so that anyone that wants to see what gloss black looks like will get a good idea...don,t want to hijack someone else thread!!
thanks Jaywoo, its not going at all at the moment ....the turbo still needs to be fitted, but as a stock 2.8vr, it was quicker than my Stock S3.
hopefully will have the VRT setup up and running in a few months...looking at around 350bhp and same again for torque. ..6 cylinders and a turbo its...
No i am a member of Westsidevw, but i do know the guys at ED38 (good bunch of guys).
If you want to see some of the best VAG cars in the UK you may want to come to our Westside Show'N'Shine on 7th of September this year, it will be a week after the Edition 38 show, but you can expect to see...
thanks....but unfortunately i kerbed one few weeks ago...1st time in 10 years of owning these wheels (used to be on my Porsche 944 Turbo)...gutted.
I had them polished and i dont really like them...so will be getting them diamond cut again!!
I will post a few more pics when i get home...never...
