Yes! keep those caps dude!

You coming up for the nats?

So get some tiny tires or want to keep it practical/normal?

My guard roller was liiiiike $180 posted.

And nope.

How did the ST racing coils settle in?

It is slowly getting back to the VWW of old with all of the MK1 threads. Love it.

I need the right tyres to suit the rims. Stretch looks silly on Zender turbos.

Yes that's about the price I found too.

Fantastically. They actually feel like performance coilovers, pretty much what I remember Tim's KW V3's felt like. Solid, because the car's light it can be a bit bouncy (most of the roads here are junk). As I've put it to others, my old ass grandma can now ride in the car and still be able to walk afterwards (same goes for me I suppose!)

And now I can have it as low as I need it to be. The Old Skool Vulcan Werks products are awesome.

Yessir. As it sits, it's about as high as I can get it without removing those parts. :D

When I do the next service I'll redo the rear drums and I might switch it from the 3" drop position to 2" position and see how it goes.

Hey bro im sure i can hook you up with some bbs bmw 13" mesh wheels. For a good low price too?

can't wait till then front gets notched and wound down again.

Heaps. I wound the collar up until it was too tight for me to be ****ed turning it anymore and the helper springs totally compressed.

Shorty sump, frame notches and smaller tires and I should be able to lay out :D

Is this still for sale?
