thanks for all the kind comments, i used to have a mk1 gti (mock) and ive always loved them unfortunatly it got written off, one day ill do a mk1 1.8t tho.

hubs are standard, bought the wheels from tempe tires in sydney, i looked at converting to 5stud using audi 200turbo brakes but apparently they weigh a ton and its just not worth it for the tiny improvement you get.
I made the call to tempe and they said dont worry all they need is model and year (bit worrying) but $1500 and a couple of days later they arrive from sydney and fit great, dont rub a single bit, ive even had the back 2inches lower and they still didnt rub, but i raised it coz it was a real ruff ride, not bump absortion anymore, im looking at moddifying the rear shock brakets to get it 2inches lower without comprimising ride quality. Atm it still rides quite good, ive drivin stock ones and mine and i would still prefer mine because it handles tighter for a little bit of a stiffer ride.

What is your suspension setup at the moment, Peter?

[PeDiES]

What is your suspension setup at the moment, Peter?

i bought 30mm lowered springs all round, some german brand forget what. I then took my old springs and got the rears recoiled 2inches smaller, so its 30mm in the front 2inch in the back. new eibach shocks in the front, same old shocks in the rear

What an awful car! :P I'd smash whoever caused to write off your GTI!!

Hey,

That is a tidy 80, very nice and the paint job looks great.
Just wondering if you still have the orignal wheels and would you be interested in selling them?

How did you debadge without paint damage?

Maybe a mat black surround for the front grill would be a nice cheap touch.

Cheers,
Niall.

[PeDiES]

i have the stock wheels, their black but, and im not really willing to sell them unless you have something i can put in their place in case i sell or remove the rims

[superfly.nn]

When you say they are black, are they steel or Alloy.
Do you have pictures?
I currently have these Audi speedline split rims http://www.autometrix.co.uk/images/classifieds/SEP07/IMGP0210.jpg

[PeDiES]

there alloy but i wouldnt swap them for those, sorry.

[Jmac]

Mate i will be keen for your split rims when you source some wheels
Pm me if you do
CHeers

I'll keep you in mind Jmac and if you come across any stock Audi 80 Alloy wheels you know I'm buying.
