Do you have spacers on the back??

 

[char_baby]

No I don't, not yet. Probably will get some just to slightly fill out the back.

 

[mwillis551]

But you've ones on the front :/ your wheels look like they sit out more than mine

 

[char_baby]

Yeah, the only reason I put on the front is because the tyre was very close to the coilover. 5mm just gave it that bit of extra space.

I've seen other peoples pics of their MK5's, with no spacers and it looks like they also sit further out.

17s.

@JMerrie, was good to meet you sunday, couldn't stop staring at the colour of yours!

my car must of been sat strangly then lol coz it is nearly 80mm lower. i did have a problem witht eh wheel arch gap a few weeks ago where one side had more arch gap than the other, nearly 1cm difference. i had a little play with the set up and now its sitting even

 

[char_baby]

Haha it was on grass to be fair, how do you know its nearly 80mm more than mine or do you mean just on the coilovers you have?

lol, i didnt really word that properly as i was half asleep and still at work lol. i actually meant that mine is nearly 80mm lower than standard

 

[JayParekh]

No I don't, I checked mine against blackmagicibiza's at gti and mine seemed lower at the back As for passengers...i haven't had any in the back since. I don't like having people in the back as they find it such a struggle to get out.

Hasn't scraped on anything yet. I don't know about mm's unfortunately but its gone from at least a fist gap to getting just about two fingers when slightly angled in the gap.

Thanks Char

Just a quick post to say nothing will be done to the car for quite a while. Can't think of anything to do and with myself competing in an Irish sports kettlebell championship next month i'm concentrating on that and my fitness more.

Buying myself weightlifting shoes at £90 isn't a cheap start!

 

[yaue10]

Stranger!!..didnt know there was such thing as kettlebell championship. Good luck in that ...what weight you going for?

 

[char_baby]

Lol hello. Been following your thread still so don't worry

Its a sport thats getting bigger and bigger. Thanks for the luck! Only starting in on 8kg as its my first, but doing long cycle which is doing as many clean and jerks in 10mins total with hand change after 5mins.

Really excited for it though as its in Ireland. Costing a bloody fortune though lol.

No play money for the car then ey! lol...I bet the clean and jerk is motivating you abit I imagine?

Hey Char

How're things?

The car looks stunning btw , don't suppose you're still planning on having the roof done?
Thought I'd show you one of my latest mods, I'm sure you'll approve haha

Looking forward to seeing any future mods you have planned, but for now good luck with the kettle bell comp!

 

[mwillis551]

Why are you excited for it being in Ireland? lol

Aw thats cute he has his seat belt on! Haven't thought about the roof to be honest, got put off after seeing so many corsas with it done.

For the competition, not the place lol.
Apparently it's nice in Kilkenny so we'll see I suppose!

New little addition to the car.

I know they aren't the same on either side, my hands were freezing and before I knew it, it had stuck down. Be careful of the wind if you're only holding one side

We'll see how long they last before I get annoyed that one isn't the same as the other.



Hi!
