Fully dissembled them.

Are you perhaps just using the air-con ? I can easily get about 1.5l/100kms difference between having the aircon on or not. Also take into account the traffic- are you experiencing more stop start...

I did mine but I used a special carbon fibre 3M vinyl designed for it. I can tell you the roof is easy, the grille is a pain but do-able but you can forget the mirrors. I did mine but the vinyl is...

If you're interested in a few mods that can be done to your GT, check out my thread in the diesel section.

Approx 50-55mm drop using H&R UltraLow coilovers. Running 18" x 7.5" with ET 45. Had to have the guards rolled and pulled - used to rub really badly whenever I turned the wheels and hit a...

Thats not too bad mileage for a diesel and the price seems very good to be honest. If well looked after you'd probably get a good 100,000kms more which seems like good value for 10k , so long as you...

From what I understand it will be fine as long as you stick to 235 wide tyres to get the correct load rating. Keep in mind you would want to be running stock height with tyres this wide otherwise...

You are aware that the owner is a forum member here? Greg Roles is who you need to look for, its not like him to not instantly reply to any comment or request so bit shocked by your claim.

Last I heard that project was around $100,000. Doubt you'd get very far with only 30k.

There's always the option of removal rather than replacement but its very naughty.

Considering you are put off by the cost of Turbo kits for an R32 I would stay away from a 4motion conversion on a GTi or putting a 2.0T into an R32. My suggestions - Buy an Mk6 R - its a turbo 4...

Getting a bottle to try too - the LiquiMoley DPF cleaner is getting really hard to get and this Cleenergy DPF service is much cheaper too.
Surely it has to be Cerium based?

Good idea. I too did the springs thing first then I did coli overs after - should have just coilovers from the start. Like mentioned before there are a lot that come up for sale 2nd hand so keep an...

Wow, with that sort of driving you should not be having any DPF issues. Doing 100kmh for 30 minutes on the highway should easily bring the exhaust up to temp to burn off any soot. I'd be very...

If you're seriously considering getting a GT TDi keep in mind that they are fitted with a diesel particulate filter - its the only thing I HATE about my car and it gives me nothing but trouble. If...

Pretty sure there are some chinese copies of the RNS510 that include bluetooth, check this thread out

And here are the end results. Have only driven it a little bit so far but happy to report there doesn't seem to be any guard rubbing yet. Bonnet looks much better now with the hole filled too.

Ok so I got sick of the constant rubbing of my tyres on the guards so I've decided to get the guards rolled and pulled out slightly and while its getting that done may as well get the bonnet notch...

mmmmmm.....so tempted, they would be PERFECT. Just have to figure out how to scrape the money together....are you negotiable on price?

What brand and model of tyres are being supplied and can you confirm wheel width and offset?

I'm also keen to hear the offset and width as well as tyre size.

Just replaced the battery in my 2007 GT so managed to get 7 years out of it.

Bugger! Way too wide and too aggressive offset for me.

Consider how low you intend to go too - I'm running 18x7.5 with ET45 and 225 tyres. Was ok when the car was only slightly lowered ( would only rub under severe dips with wheels turned ) but now that...

Yeah they will because I'll be forced to go with 235's to keep a legal load rating and with my car so low it will seriously rub.
