What Accessories are you buying for your MK6 Golf?

[Corey_R]

It's the same colour....

It's just the difference in camera settings, light conditions, and the fact that you have lots of light biege to make your eyes thing the black is any blacker than in the GTI or R

[Ryan_R]

I'm a tad colour blind, but I'll wait for a 3rd opinion in any case

Compare GTD to this one. The center part that covers the air bag looks similar, but the rim looks a bit different. I've seen other non-sport Golf's with the normal interior, and they seem darker inside than the GTI and R... weird.

I'm a bit iffy about taking the wheel apart.

Dealer did mine for nothing while fixing a rattle

Ordered my H&R sway bars during the week, cost $697AUD shipped from the states as I had to do a wire transfer (~$22 fee heh). Set of DBA4000 slotted rotors and Ferrodo DS2500 pads arrived yesterday. Just gotta pick up some fluid and fit them so I can hit the track again!

If people have a contact in the states, APR USA is having a summer sale. Prices are actually good, ie Fuel pump or FMIC are under $950USD.

Do you guys get Endless brake pads here? We have MX72s installed on our cars and they work brilliantly. Better than Ferodos when we had them on my old Evo.

Which part number are the rotors? Where did you get them from? I tried looking for some DBA ones the other week but coulnd't find anything for the R.

Oh and my sway bars arrived a couple of days ago, they look mint.

See image attached for relevant parts. Collected them today. Don't even bother with contacting DBA for help, I tried e-mailing them and calling their "support" people but I've had turds more useful than them! Even a large "expert" brake place in Melbourne had no idea. Both of them tried selling me GTI items!

I dealt with V-Sport in Sydney after feedback from a few others who were good. Contacted them by phone initially and then e-mail. Nice and easy. Will buy from them again no problems.

Nice work Dave....I didnt realize your poxy android pos phone could take pictures, cause it sure doesn't like making calls with all those drop outs....sort it out will ya!!!!!!!!!

[Ryan_R]

He must be on 3 or Vodafail. I'm switching to Telstra regardless of cost after the rubbish service I've had.



Nice brakes there - let us know if they improve the dust problem as well as how they feel compared to stock.

[Lazarus7]

Nice one thanks Dave

Just like you to take a cheap shot hehe, its called the eastlink tunnel! Gonna blame telstra on that one

Doubt I'll pay any attention to the dusting, doesn't bother me. Just give them a gerni once a week! More interested to see how much better they hold up at Sandown
