those coilovers are porn
You'd best get a lorry load of Kleenex ordered for when the black car's new suspension arrives then...... 6k's worth of Proflex :cool::cool::cool:
There's alot of porn on show in those pics.
love it!
Ps what turbo are you using on the 20v?
Lovely cars, have the Avo's been rebuilt recently ? I gave up with those as the damn things just dont stop leaking ! Have to say though that Avo were always good with sorting them out which is more than some other manufacturers.
Whilst you mention Proflex I recently got myself these cheap and nasty dampers lol

James, standard turbo but it could do with some of your magic. I'll PM you later :thumb:
lol, better to have it done now than have them let you down.
As for the Ohlins, was quite fortunate to dismantle a car running them so decided I would keep them for myself. I'd never go and buy some simply as there so bloody expensive though ! There are some good service centres in the uk now though so not such a nightmare having springs changed and stuff like that which would put most people off usually.
Best of luck with the Golf, looks like a lovely bit of kit.
The changeable weather today led to a wet quali and dry-to-wet race. It was my first time driving the Golf in the wet and only the second time ever that I have driven on track in the wet! I took to it like a duck to water lol Some of the bigger power boys in classes A and B struggled with the conditions meaning I qualified first in class (again no direct competition unfortunately) and third on the grid :d
The track had almost dried come race time and i was lined up next to a 1.8 20vT Leon, with a 1.8 20vt Mk2 golf on the row behind :( The Leon surged ahead off the start and I tucked in behind. His corner speeds were much slower than mine, but his straight line pace meant he could hold me off and in the process hold me up allowing the mk2 turbo to catch. I went for a do-or-die dive down the inside and made contact with the Leon, which allowed the mk2 turbo passed. They squabbled with each other which allowed me back passed the mk2, however in my eagerness to catch the Leon I took an excursion to the grass, dropping me back behind the mk2. I decided at that point that seeing as I wasn't racing them for class position, I'd back off and make sure I finished!
So ended up 4th overall (due to one of the front row retiring) and 1st in a class of 1 lol
Vids are uploading slowly!
Ps I also drove the car too and from the circuit again, none of this trailer queen nonsense :thumb:
