also nuespeed front ARB 25mm or 28mm not sure the guy that sold it to me says it was 28mm but neuspeed doesn't list one for the front thats bigger than 25mm

uprated shortened droplinks .

and powerflex wishbones bushes .



its been 3 days since i've fitted them and all and needless to say what a massive improve meant the grip is ridiculous a bit of soft side dampening wise very comfy for road use but clearly these aren't track coilovers not a par with koni or kw v2/v3 but defo on a pair with weitecs and ap's strangley fills less harsh than boths those brands its only been 3 days so lets see how it goes after couple of months of birmingham's pot holes
 
Cheers guys, yeah idnan love these 1.8ts. And to graham yeah quattro model only reason I bought it mate can handle big power better than fwd, hopefully the engine should fire into to life by weekend just head sent off to get the valve stem seals changed, fingers crossed everything goes well. Finally in regards to water pump I used this before had no issues so will have to wait and see it certainly better than the plastic crap taken out the car which last 65k miles

I agree metal over plastic fins defo

I work for gsf and its the bearings id worry about lol

Loving the speed and work of this btw

was a nice day yesterday at dynodaze charity day , some really nice cars adam's monster LCR made 333bhp. the day started off worrying as cars were running very low numbers , mk2 white k1 made 259bhp and it was suppose to be mapped to 290bhp so i was pessimistic to say the least but i made 254bhp and 222 ft/lbs of torque on stock map running 0.8/0.9 bar of boost niki even stated some stage lcr struggle to see realistic 250bhp so i'm chuffed , 30+ bhp more than stock with no added timing or boost :)
