makes me wonder - i put the deposit down on jan 27th. a month ago now.
admittedly i didn't want them installed till mar 7th, but surely the springs should've been well n truly delivered by now at inline suspension. assuming the orde was placed promptly.......
had i not chased them up, i probably would've rocked up next wednesday only to find out they don't have my springs.
they say the ship got delayed. hmmm.........
Hey Mysticality, have you checked out the Diesel section to see how other forum members have made their VW TDI's reliable over the long haul, go quick, sound good ( not so much noisy )??. Might be worth doing a bit more research before ya blow the fun cards......Quote:

i'm selling my original springs.
link here for those interested.
4x4 RS anyone?
Well, kinda - I just put a Bluefin in my 2008 Elegance TDI 4x4. Gone from 103Kw/320Nm to 132Kw/395Nm (TDI RS is 125/350). A K&N filter came with the Bluefin. Hoo mamma. Not that I'm a hoon, but overtaking will be a doddle now.
Because it's the plain jane 4x4 (not Scout) it's not jacked up, so handles like a standard Octavia and has 16" wheels - which I prefer to the 17 & 18's (most of my driving is on not so smooth country B roads).
Also got genuine carpet boot mat and floor mats set (with the 4x4 logo) & rubber boot mat and floor mats set. In the process of fitting a tow bar with removable neck and flip up electrics (and 12-pin flat connector).
Got/getting heaps of stuff to make it shiny from Waxit & CarCareProducts. High pressure washer & foam lance, Polisher with Menzerna, Duragloss (for paint), Nanolex (for wheels and glass).
I wonder if guys in Europe have retrofitted the haldex and other running gear to vrs'?
It's a feature that I would have paid for had it been available.
I thought the setup in the A3 was brilliant.

Sodding ebay - it's so addictive. Just popped on a brand new revision H RNS510 from Ireland for just under $1000 (jeez those things are pricey, although that was cheap). Where are they getting all the ones they sell on ebay? What are the people that pull them out putting in?
I missed out on winning an auction and got a second offer for what I bid (less than the winning bid).
Now, of course I'll have to get all the expensive crap that can connect to it.
All the gadgetry appears to be there; this is one of my long-term planned mods. Eventually.Quote:
