    Balkanac,

    I got mine done at Carquest in East Perth. They do lots of Jap cars and prestige euro cars. The only distributor for KW coilover in Australia is Inmotive in NSW so thats where Carquest got mine from.

    WA Suspension in Osborne Park are good and also Wilkinson Suspension in Bayswater.

    the exhaust looks great. When you say that the stock one was restrictive what do you mean exactly? Do you feel any performance difference with the new exhaust? Im considering getting a new cat back exhaust on the bora but dont really want to spend the money only for it to sound nice. Would you mind me asking how much you payed for the exhaust system? is it mild or stainless? PM me if you dont want to post price (if not ill understand). Also thanks for the pics of the springs, mine look totally different (about twice as many coils and a lot closer together) but i guess thats just the different brands.

    Old Exhaust

    Hi guys.

    Few photos of the old exhaust.

    Since putting on the new one the stereo in the car has been swiched off.
    The car pulls little bit harder at high revs. Might notice more difference in few weeks time when I install CAI and hopefully chip after that.

    Will keep you posted with the progress.

    What chip are you looking at putting in?

    Superchip, only reason there is a guy in Perth that can do it. But then I'm thinking maybe to save more money and put cams first and then chip.

    Does anyone got any good or bad experience with cams and chip on V6 N/A. Should I do it or not. Supercharger would be nice but $10k is bit too much.

    Might need to do more reserch before I start spending more money.

    Wheels World in Osbourne Park. Saw an R32 getting KW V3 coilovers in it the other day. Also, theres Wilkinson Suspension over in Bayswater-ish.

    I'm not a Mk4'er but its GREAT to see another perth dubber. Methinks I saw your car in the city a few weeks ago, hot looking ride!

    There is a small bunch of us vw folk who cruise in perth, mostly organised by msn. We've also got a facebook group: WA German Car Drivers Group.

    Cool. Reason I ask is that I'm going to buy a 4motion as well and maybe if I could get some experiences first before I do things, I'd save a bit of money hehe.

    Dragan at Inmotive did this. He had a HPA twin turbo kit, then sold that and did cams etc and stayed NA. I think he's bored of it again. Might wanna talk to him.
