And the BBS look great mate

Cheers man :)

Edit.. Suj and Arun need to get pictures together.. (Not of them both posing, but of the cars..) :)

What's wrong with us posing?
Here's a teaser pic of us, along with Phil and Mike:

Phil, they aren't cheap mate, £90-100, but so well built, my mates at Euro-Customs have 2, and a couple of other good mates do too.

Chris, you don't at the moment, but if you do decide to lower the car, then it could be worth it :)

Don't need to buy one now, was clearing the garage and I found this old beast:

Nice snug fit :D

Decided to take all the spacers off, too much scrubbing, so need to get them cut down or something, so I decided to get started. Yes Llyr, that is your seat I'm using to sit on:

Then like an idiot I decided to lower it more, i now have about 5mm of thread left on the coils, really do need to sort engine spacing, chassis notch etc out.

Also the wheels are probably 1 mm away from the strut without spacers, need to get spacers sorted asap:

More pics later of the tuckage.

Al, I doubt he will be :(

(and tbh as long as it ain't scrubbing, then it won't ever touch, as will always be that distance apart :D

that jack looks well old, gonna risk it, for a chocolate biscuit? ;)

What do you think you're doing with my seat you sh*t box. x

Wait, technically they're my seats till the 26th June

You've lead a sheltered life lol.

LMAO, bless :p

will mike ever be back?
looking good with the new wheels,you not going to risk running your wheel that close to your strut though are you?

Nope he won't be, that mofo's got 2 Ibiza 20vt's now haha
Nope it's not touching, it'll be fine for now, till I get the spacers sorted.

thats a shame i want to see how the ibiza is coming on.
surely the tyre will get closer if it drops in pressure with the weight of the car on it.

well tbh, tyres are stretched, so even then I doubt it will touch, but need to see it in person, I wouldn't run it so close to the shock, but he said its only short term I guess


the mk2 is coming along ok, he has been busy, but will have it running soon :D

you got a price from costco suj please?

arun, you reckon that costco near pride park will have them?

Phil, they aren't cheap mate, £90-100, but so well built, my mates at Euro-Customs have 2, and a couple of other good mates do too.

Chris, you don't at the moment, but if you do decide to lower the car, then it could be worth it :)

I bought the Arcan low entry jack from Costco a few months ago. I think I paid roughly £80 for it. Great bit of kit for the money, really solid and well made :)
