What did you do to your Polo today?

[rgvlee]

Trackday tonight so I've finally fitted up a tow strap (FMIC piping so can't use OEM tow hook) and popped on a couple of tow stickers and a battery as rules require. Haven't fitted up the fire extinguisher for this one, not a requirement for this one but I'll get onto the bracket this week/weekend.

I think I'm in the market for a new clutch, 90k on the stock one and I've been beating up on it since going stage 2 which hasn't helped.

Years back shaneth got Phase 2 loaded, clutch didn't make the end of the street.... Then again Troy is still on a DMF with his Frankenturbo

Well it held up all night. To be fair I've suspected the clutch was showing signs of wear and tear before the tune was done, a bit of slip into 3rd every now and again. Thinking about an ecs stage 2 kit unless I can be convinced otherwise.

Brakes took a beating I think I'll need to do them as well.

Stock suspension sucks, I'll have to fix that as well.

Expensive toys

I hear you RE: the stock suspension! It rolls all over the place. Thankfully upgrading bushes tomorrow (thanks Gav!) which will make a bit of a difference. What would you consider upgrading to? Coilovers or just springs/shocks/swaybar, etc.

[rgvlee]

The whole lot. FSB, RSB, rear toe correction and coilovers. Hit it with a big stick. I've already done most of the bushes and mounts up front, they are worth while doing.

I've got the ecs stage 2 on the red car, it's very nice, great weight to it, bites well and easily drivable in traffic.

Nice one. Be keen to hear how it all goes - I'll be going down that path sometime early next year methinks. Expensive bloody toys!

I'll probably be taking off my bracing on the silver car next year as to retire it from track days. Front strut top brace, front lower brace (never put it on the car) and rear lower brace, also have adjustable whiteline front sway bar links. Let me know if any of that is of interest. Will be keeping the rear sway bar, still need to enjoy driving it

[Paazuzu]

All of the above are of interest!

[rgvlee]

Guessing all the bracing is UR?

What are the sway bar links like?
