Yeah, was going to buy new rotors and stuff too as mine are starting to lip. May as well change and upgrade.Quote:

Wound down my front coils too but I want to go lower (about 7 turns left to the bottom) and during the week I'll be soaking the rear perches in WD40 as they're stuck and need a good whack to loosen them.

Done anything about your gearbox? Priced it up with a shop? I've gotta do mine soon but scared to get a quote haha. Also, got any links to decent lsd and fork upgrades? Clean looking r32 mate. Cheers
Hey! Yeah, I've had a few quotes from a couple of different workshops around Sydney; most are quoting around the low $3,000 mark including labor so it isn't too bad I guess but mate, get it done before you start to wreck gears! And in terms of LSD, either go for a peloquin or wavetrack and USP Motorsports sell selector fork upgrade kits made of steel instead of brass, which is a worthwhile upgrade.Quote:

Oh thats sick! Hopefully mine is the same situation because I am not keen on forking out thousands just yet!
Haven't done much recently but have bought another cupra lip (other got destroyed) which I'm yet to install, had a headlight lens break, and discovered a flat spot on one of my tyres - very annoying to listen to. Need to upgrade my speakers as the rears dont work at all and I should be getting the gearbox rebuilt sometime very soon. Enough rambling, here's some pr0n:
