Black VR6(overdue update 3 yrs later oops )now blue
vardo replied to vardo's topic in Members Gallery
ok,had a few problems trying to get this on the road,still not quite there,fitted the 312mm brakes up front with goodridge hoses(wrong banjo bolts were supplied,but was sorted after a phone call),the borbets i had redrilled to 5x100(holes were not big enuff for the m14 bolts)i got a 16mm drill bit and rectified it myself,so trial fitted tonight only to find im still fouling the new calipers,so 10mm spacers and a little bit of grinding to the caliper and we finally have it on.arch work is defo required but nearly there! sooo... -

wheels cost me 160 plus vat to get redrilled,from an engineering place,they are 5x114 jap fitment,so i can also use these on my passat 5x112 with wobble bolts. you would need adaptors for 4x108 or 5x112,wobble bolts can be used for 2mm of a difference,ie 4x98 alfa would fit 4x100 vw with wobble bolts, cheerz for the comment cheerz :D -

well tonight i trial fitted the 17" Bs to see if i could use adaptors,instead of getting them redrilled,and had a go at rolling the front arch(but ive wrecked it :( ,also the car is too low for the roller at the rear,will need to loosen the suspension for it to fit. fronts with 20mm adaptors,pushing offset to -7 :D rears 10mm spacers offset et3 and side shot needless to say im just gonna get them drilled,the wheels will fit fine as they are as long as i fit the 312mm front brakes as the small 280mm caliper sticks out far too much -
