Operation Bora Body

Oh really? I thought the coils were like what you said (spine shattering stiffness). What brand coils have you got?
Dude it would be awsome if you had the comfy and handling at the same time.

Hi
I have a Diesel Geek Sump guard and I have had 3 mechanics comment to me about how impressed they are with the quality and fit of it - I fitted it quite easily with a mate - well worth the money I reckon. The only thing is that it reduces your overall clearance - I was going to go a little lower until I fitted the Sump guard, then realised I couldn't...

Yeah the height needs to be adjusted all round, I dont have a level drive, so its hard to get it right. I ran out of time to get it to sit ok. Will take it to my sisters this weekend and get it perfect.

I'm not phased about the rubbing, investigation shows its only hitting the dust shield, not the guards. BUT at lock I am hitting the front struts. So, either come up, or space and roll. I'll come up until I can space and roll.

Dylan, did you go with a sump guard?

I thought I recognised this car and after looking through your thread about porsche wheels and the headlights I realised where from. I bought a set of 16" wheels off you on eBay thanks for that and your bora looks great!

I put a brand new dogbone in today. I haven't driven it yet so can't comment on difference but the bushes in my old one were dead as disco.

Will update when I have driven it.

Also gathering bits for a big service. My fuel consumption is always over 12l/100k so hoping that some maintenance will help me be more economic.

Ohh hey man. Hope the wheels were ok. Are you local?

Mine are the pov spec FKs. Sure occasionally there is a bump that feels terrible but after riding in a brand new stock i30 the other day I reckon my coil overs are not much firmer than that.

Yeah the wheels are sweet! My step dads decided to hijack the wheels for his bora and I bought another set that are wider for my car. About an hour north so not really local.

Nice. Have you got a build thread?

Good to see you on here!

Yeah mate. It's called 'me and my mk3' in the mk3 section cheers!

Wow! What a difference! The response is so much better and quicker.

Awesome cheap upgrade.
