    i got a Stiffy today

    This is what driveways do to my car !!!!!!! i get some funny looks from people passing.

    eibach pro kit, whiteline front and rear adjustable swaybars

    PS for anyone interested in T.I.P and seat cupra air intake, i got these two parts put on my car and it frees up the top end quite alot. can hear the turbo a little more too worthwhile.

    One question... the tray thing at the top of the dash, ive seen pictures on here somewhere with a cover thing on it. id like to buy one. linky?

    Hey mate, i just fitted a rsb today and felt it lift the rear wheel reversing from a driveway, though not to that extent!

    This guy used to have some lidded top trays

    I bought one, but wasnt particulary impressed with the quality of it (The mechanism is noisy and cheap feeling and the internal plastic has some funny blotches), at the moment i have the standard one back in.

    There's an eBay vendor -- vagteam -- who often has these, called a dash cubby, up for auction -- $AUD 30-40. Here's the link to his eBay store:

    Yes, mine cocks its leg on the driveway at work. Always good for a few laughs from my colleagues

    It's the result of a stiffer rear anti roll bar (everyone here seems to call them 'swaybars' which I think is the American term), as well as a Coilover Damper/Spring combo restricting the amount of wheel travel.

    Brilliant suspension setup if you like doing trackdays and driving hard, but the ride compliance is a bit like DIY Dialysis when the road becomes less than smooth.
