VVVERY NICE BILL :) you kept that one quiet :lol: love the colour by the way. I do like those tho they do have a lovely sound track :norty: , what is it like in comparision to the rado!!! i throught it it would be much more quicker than VR?? what do you get MPG wise? been lookin at the MK4 version of these for a while now but it would mean the rado would have to go!!! regards chris :)

ZAK awesome stance lovely motor mate :)

I have a question! i was looking through my coilover paperwork the other night and i noticed that it says they are TWIN tube shock absorbers not mono tube??? what does that mean and which is better??? mono or twin ?? many thanks chris

cheers mate yeah hopefully fingers crossed that the weathers ok, you taking your rado mate?

:D yes mate that was me :lol:

cheers Tom the fivers in the post :) hows thing matey you manged to get the VR back on the road yet?? did you go Castle combe in the end? cheers chris

cheers Zak your aint lookin to bad either mate lol :D

cheers phil :D

thanks mate, no very little rubbing at all, in fact the only time i get rubbing is when i go over dips in the road at high speed, dual carriage ways etc, and thats only with a fuel tanks of fuel :) yeah would really rete H&R coilovers, it still 590mm floor to centre of wheel arch at the front and 600mm at the back cheers chris

ah cheers matey :D

Powerflow thats who i was just thinking of riley :lol: yep keep the supersprint back box (which one is it btw? oval or round?) and get power flow to fabricate the rest, but as riley says 301 ss is a must!!!

mate got your Pm, Bill is right :) i do have that system on my car. Indeed that part is no longer being made by supersprint, I brought my CAT back system a couple of years ago now and i was told that BACK THEN, BUT i phoned Demon tweeks and they ordered five so i could have one. worth given them a ring, YES its just a straight piece of black painted pipe as some one else said above and NO, no grooves cut outs etc its just straight, and YES you have to cut it to size, supersprint do this as that part is also used on GOLF VR's etc with different CATs DONT CUT IT TO SHORT , measure it first. If no one posts up the diameter then PM me and il get the car on the ramp at work and measure it for you as i can't remember, actually i still have the bill for it some where the diameter might be on there!! Personally get the diameter and correct length and go Stainless Steel, looking back thats what i should of done as the backbox is stainless hope this helps regards chris :)

cheers jim :)

I went for H&Rs as i want comfort, and good ride quality and Bill as well as Asim put them on their vehicles. cheers chris
