mk5_tdi's build

[lhennessy]

yeh thats true, and i can only see one page but no links other than to the tdi scuffs and the heater knobs.


how much is it to get camber kit done

[mk5_tdi]

Was $100 for alignment, not a camber kit
Centerline are a little pricey but the work is 2nd to none, always taken all my cars there

[mk5_tdi]

not best pic, but taken from a mate at DFO Essendon on Saturday night with the evo guys
stood out like a sore thumb but was welcomed pretty well

[lhennessy]

hey mate, shot you an email.

[mk5_tdi]

Nw just replied, was out all day so only got to comp now

[mk5_tdi]

Been sometime since I've done anything so needs an update
Few things to add that have been recent purchases
LED boot light, which is awesome! Can finally see in my boot at night time now
A little expensive but for the outcome well worth it imo

LED reverse light, mk5's notorious for the rear viability, or lack there of
This is heaps brighter and matching to the rest of the LED's on the car

Also changing the sub/amp setup, originally had a jbl 8" sub and rockford fosgate PBR300X1 amp
Now going a Rockford Fosgate P2D4-8 8" punch sub and Rockford Fosgate P300-1 Monoblock amp

Next on the list is a new headunit that will replace the RCD510, should be arriving soon
I've used a Chinese model headunit with satnav in my old evo before, and I must say it was the best satnav I've ever used.
Not only was it accurate it was super damn fast. So I'm hopefully relying that this will have the same satnav speeds/features as previous

And last night was another impulse buy, however I think a pretty good one
scrolling yahoo japan I stumbled across a near perfect set of BBS RS in 17x8 +35 and 17x9 +35
(only have some small tarnish around bolts, no gutter rash) for a measly $195 + shipping
These will be going a lot more crazy than the current Super RS though, so stay tuned




Lastly also removed rear perches and dropped the front another 5mm. so looking heaps better than before
I'll get some pics when its all washed haha

[lhennessy]

omg find me wheels that cheap please!

[lhennessy]

Hey man, just a quick question do you know your lowest point? (i want to lower mine and love your ride height! but wanna keep it legal so there is no excuse to be done.haha)

[mk5_tdi]

there are a couple used sets of RS on YJ atm, but would need a complete refurb as they either has a lot of corrosion or lots of gutter rash
can link if you want though?

Not sure on lowest point, its lower than the last picture of it now.
It's far from legal though

[lhennessy]

haha nice. the picture of it at the evo meet lower than legal?
