    Damn that sucks Ray!

    Another little update, car now rocks a Neuspeed rear swaybar, and damn it was worth every penny. Stiffens up the rear end and reduces body roll by quite a bit. Car sits alot flatter around corners and I have yet to experience any real oversteer issues with it set to medium stiffness.

    Was a bit wierd installing a sway bar to a car that never came with one, Im more used to putting them in replacing an old one! Was a bit stumped at first when I realised there wasnt really anywhere for it to go (ie holes to bolt to).







    Wish the rest of the under car was that clean!

    Wasnt to bad in the end. Hardest part was putting the new longer bolts into the bottom of the strut for the sway bar links (muffler and fuel tank get in the way)

    I could do it all again in about an hour I reckon.

    Cool bananas, that does look rather nice I must admit. Are you really getting snap over steer with it?

    Nah Im not, but havent pushed the car hard enough to find out just yet. Gave it a good flogging as usual today through the hills, but my tyres are wearing a little low again so cant go too hard now

    Lost my job the other day aswell, so the Golf is going to get a rest from the mods for a little bit sadly. Need to start saving for some paint, a new boot lid and a spare front bar so I can get stuck into some smoothing

    Sorry to hear about your Job. But you got yourself a new toy, that should keep you going for a while.

    I was expecting alot more work is needing to fit the sway bar, cutting welding muffler etc.... Good to know it was not hard.
