ahaha no way, we did meet man, i was well stressed at the time! ended up raping a bready at mcguinesses instead, going to avr again on monday. did you get what you needed? yeah, i put the new thing on upside down, but now the centre box is vibrating on the car, it's so annoying...gonna sort it tomorrow or cut it off and put some pipe in there insted.

gave up on my polo's exhaust in the end, such a pita. have you sorted it?

ah that silver mk2? had some bits of that poor bastard myself actually, it looked alright until i saw the MOT fail sheet :/

and yep, i now have decentish front brakes, although I can't afford the disks yet... i'll post a celebratory thread on staffsvw when it gets mot'd.

setting off for poloshow at 6...come say hi!

i mean the tow strap, it's bolted through the bumper iron...it works better this way. And i don't know, i can't afford tyres, i don't even think they'll go under my arches anymore. might even sell up

i would like to own these wheels. 8-)

14 x 6 JDM Black Racing BR-R 3 piece splits, ET 38 front, ET 14 rear, 195/45 contisports all round, now lowered 80mm up front, and around 50mm on the rear. feels like the car will break before it looses grip, right fun.

Wicked though.

See, what happened is... someone told me the track was 24mms narrower out back than the front, so i got them made to that size. I had to mod the bolts aswell as they followed on the inside of the drum. When it was all bolted up with the wheels on and everything, i had an pretty good stance for a mk3, but my arches needed so much work...and i had to raise it. i should of opted for smaller spacers (or tyres, but i was skint) in all honesty. Doesn't matter now i'm back on steels tho, looks better than it did without them.

MOT on wednesday.

Lol so youve nearly got poke with standard steelies?

i wouldn't say poke, but it sits alot better than that mad small track they have standard. sits pretty nice on oem size alloys...i.e et38 6j, cuz in essence it makes the rears et 14, i got 195/45s and rolled/cut my rear arches and it still catches over bumps at speeds on the motorway and if i boot it down lanes...

cheers dude! i actually washed and polished it before that meet on sunday. I need to drop the rear down again, its high from split rim tyre clearance/moving to uni! :(

I like it alot on steelies, They just standard 4.5j or Gt 5.5's?

I still keep Gt steelies on my favourite wheel list, In a nice colour that is.

they're GT ones, i'm not a great fan of their design to be honest, i was running trims...but one night i got wasted and stuck them on jons banded steels for a laugh, then i never put em back on. I'm gonna get some baby G60s off a passat or golf 3, paint them a nice colour and put my 195/45/14s off the splits on them. After MOT. engine work.

you take prettyful photographs, come take some of my car and me naked.

you need this on 13s. students have loads of money, just dont go out one night, then bang. £500 million pounds. you could have wheels instead.

give us a couple of weeks to pass mot and source those other steels and i'll pm you dude. they've got brand new tyres up front, which in all honesty can take a hammering, even if they are kuhmos. and sub 2k tyres on the rear, some rubbing tho.

Well i would just want the wheels mate, Tyres you can keep.

How much you thinking?
