no, there's a few marks on the footwell but I'm not to bothered, usually when I'm driving the car I have my racing boots on because it makes it easier to heel & toe brake!

Thinking of getting some skate board grip tape soon.

It works, I will show you Sunday.... plus you have the silly flyby throttle body?? Old school mine is with a cable!

Plus my Brembo's have toasted the ABS :D

Can even heel/toe in the Passat Phil but can't left foot brake because it cuts the power to the engine!

I will see if my air box will come off, been told that if you look down the bodies on full chat you can see all the workings going on.... so guess where I be making you point that camera Phil!

Is Craig doing back to back runs? Want a run with the air box off and another with it on.

And thanks for earlier, didn't want to bother you but I'm always worried with something like this, had wheel bolts come loose on me in the past!

any benefit with wheel studs other than ease of changing wheels?

Look better when I get the longer black wheel nuts :D

Mainly ease of changing wheels and I needed new bolts as I had them come loose on track so guessed the threads were slighly worn??

Where did you get the studs and nuts from bud? Looking to covert myself...
