    Did you have any luck with a rear bar?

    By the way I loved your Pioneer head unit - looked pretty much OEM.

    Also liked the way your front tires were struggling for traction in 2nd during rolling acceleration. =)

    Thanks mate i was going for something as close as possible to the OE look! And the traction still lacks in 2nd but im controlling the throttle better to combat it now lol !

    Traction requires better shocks and solid control arm bushes. Then it will stick.

    Interesting! well I will be organising some B8's in the new year so that should help. The stock shocks are fine as they are at the moment albeit a little rough in the back (but the rear shocks are like toothpicks so that might explain it).

    Any recommendations for control arm bushes?

    Check with Dave and Scott - they had solid bushes on the 9N3 cruise.

    I've had them in the past and the extra control/feedback is very noticable.

    is it really that bad?
    Nah it's just a nickname. I'm sure the crime at knifepoint is no different than any other shopping centre

    I've got a MKV Candy White GTI Golf. I parked all the waaaay up the back so no MOFO will park next to me and bang their door into my car! I saw yours and thought 'cool I'll park next to the other little GTI he won't damage mine' then I saw your plates and wondered if you were on here. Door dents drive me nuts. I'll happily walk for 5 - 10mins and park away from everyone else.
