"B3ST" passat wagon

[Whubbsie]

thanks guys, ill get pics up soon but first...

so i open the boxes right? firstly ive only received the front struts only, im sure they rears will come soon......

ok so i was still a little bit chilled after that, untill i opened up all the air management stuff, turns out i paid an extra couple hundred U.S.D to have 1/4" airline and fittings instead of the 1/2" setup i actually paid for!! and to give you an idea on what im talking about, 1/4" is possibly the slowest airline setup you can have! then theirs 3/8" which is what im using for the "air up" system and the 1/2" line which is the biggest line you can go, and what i wanted for my "air dump" system

not too happy ATM, just been walking around the stuff i got thinking about what im gonna do now............

stupid thing is, it wasnt andrew@ openroad tuning's fault although he should have checked everything before it got sent out it was the management system suppliers who up, but unfortunately not much i can do until the 1/2" system lands in the country! GRRRR

dom

can you get them to rebate you the cash and just get the fittings and lines from a shop here?

[schoona]

Neverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

i could do that, but im working something out with andrew he might have a solution to the problem, it could only be all i need now is 1/2" air line instead of replacing all the valves ect.... in my management invoice it says ive got 4 3/8" valves and 4 1/2 vlaves, but i have 3/8 and 1/4 air line, it might be as easy as getting 1/2 air line

The air line is pretty cheap at places like Pirtek or the Hose Doctor.

If you've got the 1/2" valves you should just be able to grab the hose and any additional fittings locally. You might even go up a size in the hose. There's some metric sizes in between the imperial sizes.

lol turns out i have everything there, had a good chat with andrew just now and he layed out everything, had preen and myself scratching our heads untill 30min ago when we worked everything out! i picked the kit up at 2pm today!

dont know if i can get the bags in in-time for SEDF though.... only thing left are the rear struts to arrive, i should find out how far they are overnight...... theres ALOT of work involved to get these badboys in and working! what a f*cking weird day, im ready to go to sleep and have a looooong sleep in just to forget about today ill get pics up tomorrow

Don't forget cable ties, can't install new suspension without it.

very very true, my apologies for forgetting such an important tool(s).

i may also bring some gasket glue, it helps with the gaffa tape for any hose leaks. guaranteed to work.

under 3 and a half months Dom, you better have $$ saved lol
