Andys, I'm already Diff'd up. He's eyeing up a Wavetrack.

Look at you, you tart with your 19" and your stance!
Yeah I know he's putting some Diff's in his car, been going on about is for ages!

Oh, and I thought its about time the car got treated to some nice bits as its had a hard time of it recently!;)

So, today I finally got around to sorting out the ride height on my motor. It's going in for some work next week so it'll get realigned again then.
I'm happy with its stance now and think it'll settle a little more over time too. I'm so happy to have the new wheels fitted too, I love them!

I do love these wheels! You need bigger brakes now though. :)

Love these wheels, especially in silver. Sits really well too.

Did I read right that with the R32 rear callipers, you're upgrading to 310 mm discs? Can I ask, were the callipers from a Mk4 or Mk5? I would assume that a1P uses the Mk5 platform? I've been thinking about upgrading my 286 mm discs by using an ECS calliper shim, but the S3/R32 rears might be a better alternative...hmmm...

Looks great buddy :)

If your looking to upgrade there's a chap on ASN that's done a 300mm rear disc conversion for the MKIV cars using S4 disc's.

Hey mate, thanks!:)

Yes I am using the Mk5 R32 rear calipers and carriers to upgrade my rear brakes from 286 to 310mm.

I'm not sure about using the rears for the front of your car, I really don't have enough knowledge about it to guess either! :(

Is it you who I see around the Cranwell area? :)
