That's them next to standard ones... Anyone spot the mistake? Lol

So I just emailed the guy and within minutes he replied apologising and said he'll cover the costs and make new ones, them are spot on just too short, if you look at the ball joint...

there is no spline, because the ball joints cannot rotate so no issues later down the line! I think the rears are spot on, really impressed with the dust shield the rear contains, I'll upload photos shortly.. Any interest?

Nice bit of engineering on the drop links, look really good. Who is it that's made them for you?

I want to do some track days in mine but need to sort some decent brakes first as I'm on standard ones at the moment.

Yeah they're pretty good! Uhhm... TFS Motorsport, once they're done 100% and I've tested them, I'm hoping for the effort he's put in I can get him some sales, they'll be no profit to me other than you guys get a good product and a honest bloke sells some stuff

Also yeah... I'm not the biggest fan of standard Leon brakes, it all went so well with the Mk1 LCR brembos... What happend?! Lol Voljswagen happened I guess?

Anyway enough rambling... Here's some forum love ... I was bored...

Nice

Been thinking of changing the wheels myself. Not sure if I should upgrade from 17' to 18'. Anyhow, yours look nice!

Thank you, I've had 18's and 19's only, I think 18's are the best due to weight, tyre prices (plus more track oriented) also they fit over most brake upgrades.

However I must admit, I don't know if they'll fit over my TTRS bakes, but I don't mind I wanted them for so long now, later on I plan to use the Porsche six pots up front with a smaller disc so I know they'll fit then... Lol. Crazy maybe? But they're starting to stop stocking them so I had to buy them now lol.

First dibs on the TTRS brakes :D

Also as I've got the track time bug...

I order a new helmet, £50 on eBay!

Bargain!

That's good! Glad to see more people track their car! eBay number is; 351006890548, it's really good money to be fair! And prevents sweating like a beast with a full face! Haha

What do you expect to gain from the updated drop links?


To be honest.... Not a great deal... adjustability, rigidity and quality parts that won't need replacing as often as OEM, also they won't brake if you look at them like OEM ones lol.

Them ATS are lovely. If you're going to move your current wheels on, PM me bud ;)


Thanks bud! Hopefully a tad different but retain a standard look, plus they're very light weight.

Unfortunately I couldn't bare to sell the LCR wheels, they're ridiculously priced from Seat (over £400 per wheel) and pretty scarce. But I will bare in mind !
