Vwthunders build thread (finally)

Lol..np thanks...
Btw where suits you get the porsche breaks from

[vwthunder]

I pieced it together myself
Designed some carrier spacers myself and had them made

Thats the thing, if your going to buy stuff you have to be prepared to get your hands dirty, be prepared that things wont fit. Some places wont even fit it as they will tell you its not engineered and not designed for the car.

How are you going for sourcing the adjustable the strut tops, Troy?

[vwthunder]

I gave up, trying to get the brakes and exhaust finished first. When the exhaust is done I can do some logging and GIAC will work on my tune

Got the calipers painted today, lets see how they hold up to chipping this time. Used 2 cans of VHT

Wow, nice job!

[vwthunder]

Few pics of my friend painting the calipers

Going to wait a week, then hit them with a few coats of clear.

Nice progress

I bought s3 calipers and carriers, hoping to get them fitted hassle free

[vwthunder]

Ok, so I finally got the front and back brakes on, even tho both sets did not fit.
Still have to clear coat the red calipers i have done, so the black ones are on for now

Here is how they look through the BBS's

[Stuwey]

So how does it actually drive?
