Looks smart mate. Theres a black turbo that rolls round on 19" slabs round here, looks smart. Although they have one of the most stupid suspension set up known to man, Kevster will agree as he has an A4.

very Very nice mate,so is there not much basic diffrence between them then,just a few panles on the outside and the chassis and suspension setup the same? (yes that crazzy ball joint system is so so silly,my machanic said to me he's glad i didnt try it like i wanted too) lol
Are your wheels 19's and genuine?

genuine wheels na mate good copys lol , just done all the arms on the front of mine , was not fun !!!!! bloody mots the wheels do the damage !!!! lowerd mine on coilovers :) there only 18" wheels to 19 to big and bumpy

It's strange the ride on mine felt quite harsh with the 18's alone (40 profiles)
But now on the shocks and springs it feels less harsh and more controled (but far less shocking then the nova so i dont mind! )lol
Scott
looking sweet scott. now get the nova sorted.
kevster

i love my audi not really cleaned it for like ,well weeks the 2 novas take up all my time at the mo plus haveing 3 cars to polish puts me off lol
Nice cars lads, can't beat a VAG wearin' big shoes lol
My mate used to have a 130 TDi Bora on 19" A8 reps (before the craze so he keeps saying) lol and on it's ar$e with FK c/o's
I'll try and find a pic

19"s and FK coilovers, without spring platform removed, still pretty low
Thats been raised a little too, comared to how it can sit, can't find pics of 18"s and springs lol
Got one http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v354/primerasi/BoraPics036.jpg
Fk coilovers are canny for the money Scott, a little soft for my tastes but they do the job, perfect for the family and still looking good!
Thats a shame Scott, you cant do oil changes without jacking it up now lol!
Looks very well though!

Thas a realy nice car dude.
i like them wheels alot,and im a fan of the bora's, i did think of getting them wheels as they are diamond cut faced and look ace,but though humm not sure they would look right on my passat,so whent for the more subtel rs4's.
for what i use the car for the springs are enought trust me lol
And yes lee i found out today that to just jack the car up now is a chalenge,lol forgot whet its like to try jack a realy low car.
Scott
looking good fella :thumb:

Needs to go so far down that you can't drive it, then raise it 10mm :) Also needs a proper de-badged grille then it'd look cool, always liked low passats, with good wheels and a de-badged grille :cool:
Needs a proper fine meshed grill. Not a DIY jobbie, a proper one.
Although a black VW badge is a stage one mod, not three lol
