16s defo the best all rounder. 17 looks great but rides nowhere near as nice.
-
still unsure.. if i do make it, it wont be in the rado.
-
got an 8v golf if you're interested..
-

dude.. thats not the best car to look at for comparisons.. look again at the pic. His arches are massive, thats not just a case of rolling them. 8's with an et0 would be okay, but 195/45 wont be enough stretch for them to look how you want. 9's with an et15 would be much better. 8's and et0 would just about work on the rear with standard rolled arches but wont look great. I'd keep hunting for something else.

Thurs 25th Aug @ 16.45.. Blue Rado hooning over the flyover by Krispy Kreme at Avonmeads, Bristol. Didn't get the flavour but sounded good enough for me to look round and spot it!
-
Are you getting a copy of the insurance cert just for reference in case you get pulled etc? If it's for taxing, the post office wont accept a scanned or faxed copy..
-
it wont fit bud.. it screws to the original rad cowling, which you don't have due to front mount and slim fans..
-
all depends on budget! r32 twin turbo quattro with 6 speed box..

Never managed to get the Rado down there, but I'm going to rayleigh this morning in a van! -
No issues with morrisons on most cars, however my g60 and 1.8t only like super.. Both run funny with any 95ron wherever its from..
-
Ah ha.. Always strange what is and isn't available.. I'll put an order in tomorrow.. Kip, any idea of part no?
-
as title, i need the metal strip the splitter attaches to.. local to bristol for collection or posted to BS16. cheers then. Baz

Can't find 1 years insurance for under £1000, help!

FJ okay with small mods, but no engine swaps! Brentacre were useless for me.. crazy price. Adrian Flux came up best at under half what brentacre wanted. Going trade again this year though. -
Putting cars up for sale in the general car chat section isn't allowed, but at that price I'm sure it's not a problem :)

From Edition38: Sorry bud :(
-

-

pics of mine will be along in about 4 weeks! -
Badges will swap over fine for ebay metal ones.. tyre wise a 195/45 will be best or you could go to a 195/40.
-
more talking in terms of progression for each car.. agreed using the 16v block would be an advantage. now that you've been through the ball ache of completing an engine, how time consuming do you think it would be to do another? would it be much easier second time round? just thinking milling of parts etc/cutting down rs2 inlet etc..
-
In my head I think the logical conversions are: 16v base car = 16v turbo G60 base car = 16vG60 VR6 base car = R32 My plan was to 16v my G60 over time, wouldn't have even considered 20v or R32 for it, it wouldn't seem right..
-
This should help..

205/45/16 would be the best choice for a vr6.. 195 is lower than standard width which is not recommended.
