What have you done to your mk4 (golf/bora) today?

Here's a diagram from the Bentley manual



Here's a NEUSPEED Sway Bar install

[dylan8]

the old whiteline sway bar had been desigened to go under the driveshafts, even on the 3rd revision they still have a **** design.
yours looks like the same shape as my (except upside down), I had the 2nd and 3rd revision.
the bend in the centre of the bar in the centre of the car, which way is it going how its currently installed on your car?

[dylan8]

actually looking at their website looks like the fronts have been revised again...
also have dropped a number of bars from the range and dropped the 50mm lowering rule.
Keen to see how you go with it! also careful with those end links. do a good month of driving before doing any spirited driving...

I had to take out my front sway bar (stock) with 35mm of lowering. Any lower and it contacted the axel.
Not my video, but it's the same as what was happening on mine.


Now I'm sitting around 90mm lower than stock soooo my front sway bar is long gone. To be honest, can't even feel a difference with it out, and I've given it a good run up in the hills courtesy of a certain VWWC cruise

Took out the perches for my rear springs last night.


Sitting pretty nicely now

That wheel/car colour combo looks awesome ... Have you thought of darker tail-lights?

Thanks for your keen observation

Coil over would be way cheaper but this package is awsome

Drove today through Picton , Stanwell Tops and National Park and the handling was spectacular. Ride comfort was stiff but not enough to brake your back

Oh yeah......205/55 16 bridgestone potenzas

[dylan8]

interested to see how you find the front sway and end links.
keep us updated.

have to do my 312 swap too

[Lito]

Was feeling like the car was a little down on power these last few weeks, wasn't sure if it was just me getting used to it or if it had really lost some power. I decided to check the wastegate and sure enough it had somehow adjusted itself down to 5psi (tune calls for 8psi). It's now back around 8-9psi and pulls like mad!

Thanks buddy, yeah I have, not really sold on the idea to be honest. Might see if I can find another jazz blue car with darker lights and see how it looks. It kinda works with them red because it ties into the whole brightness thing of the wheels.

Lito, how could it adjust itself down?

I'm not really sure tbh, I could only guess that because it's all brand new the spring in the actuator must've needed time to 'wear in'. I don't think the nuts on the rod moved because they were still tight together. I guess I'll just have to keep an eye on it...

Btw, your car looks mint! love the wheels, I think that a set of gti tail lights would go really well with that colour combination.
