Reply With QuoteLito, I just read yours and Gavs threads from front to back over the past 2 days, awesome stuff! I think you guys will be able to build one of these engines with your eyes closed now!
Can't wait to hear how the LSD goes!

Really not sure mate, but for your first conquest when she's all up and running the way you want should be Jason's cracking time of 13.6 in his old Polo. You have a few hundred kg's more to navigate so should be interesting!

Haha yeah I've seen the inside of a 1.8t more than I'd care to remember. Diff is a wavetrac, should be interesting to see how it feels, apparently they are really fun in the wet. I'm actually more exited about getting the engine mounts in. Stock mounts don't like big turbosOriginally Posted by kenbot

Just reading through again mate, couldn't find it mentioned, but wanted to know:
What front bumper do you have? I'm trying to work out if I want to install (and paint!) the Votex front lip/valance I just bought, if I don't like the main bumper anyway..
Got any shots of the Anni rear valance painted & fitted?! I'm sure I'll want to do the rear valance as well once I see yours fitted up.

Hey mate, front bumper is a JOM one from Germany. Good fit, pre-shaved, and abs. I think the votex lip would look sweet but you need skirts to pull it off, same with the r32 bar IMO. I did a trial fit with the rear valance but it wasn't really spot one, like where the rear guards are it doesn't follow the flare line exactly. So I've put it off for a bit, need to get this dif in first!! Also need new number plates, the stock qld plates are horrid and makes the car look cheap and shyte. Going with a classy combo that will stay secret until I get the plates...

Soo apparently my new engine mounts and diff needed a holiday before being sent to me. FedEx has generously sent them to the island of Martinique and then Puerto Rico, and now the package is in Hawaiiit was supposed to arrive on Tuesday but now probably won't be here until next week. Sucks because I was hoping to do the engine mounts this weekend

If you do go a bright colour i would suggest leaving one spoke black (gloss or matte) for mad scene points.
