  1. agreed a write off. but say to them them that you can source the parts. bumpers and wings ect if they can fix the rear quarter, (the tricky bit) and paint it. they may say yes. may not.

    try to come to an agreement that if you can get the bits to fix and they may pay you an 'amount' to get iit fix and it may save it from being a cat d wite off. which will affect its value 'if' it ever does get fixd.

    i had a small smash. front os wing and door. and they wrote it off. i said absolutly no way. - your right to. they gave me 1900 to get the parts and paint it. always haggle with the out come. but they will pick the car up. take it away to check it. can take up to a month! then either deliver it back to you and may take it to a secure lock up and a salvage yard to wait your outcome.

     

    do not let them write it off. argu the fact that you can get secondhand parts at a fraction of the cost which you can supply etc

     

    and good luck.


  2. i ran them on mine with 20mm spacers on 205 40 tyres and they just rubbed on the rear. but this a g60 dont the vrs have a wider track on the back.?.

    so may be.?

    and yes can take monster brakes. i'm going over to the leon 323's soon.


  3. well after not doing the flywheel bolts up to the correct nm setting . the flywheel came loose and shook my engine to bits. complete rebuild. £1500. so yeah if its says x nm do it..


  4. If you use vr bearing housings on a narrow wishbone, the wheel will not be centered in the wheel arch. Been there done it. Changed to a narrow track to fit porsche wheels and brembos. Vr on narrow wishbones. Wheel sits 40 mill back. g60 on wide wishbones. 40 mill forward. Just change the cv and hub for 5 stud.[/quote

     

     

    thats all you have to do.. as illustrated


  5. i will have a spare one but not for a few weeks, but the very picture you have there is a chap in germany called deniss. look up the part on ebay.de he can send to the uk to. but paying him can be tricky. i have send euros in an envelope before.


  6. just unplug the hall sensor. and spark plugs to remove spark and compression. turn over for 30 seconds. remove the water cap, install the sparks ang hall sender. fire up the engine. squeese the water hose off the rad and leav engine to warm up, 10 mins. check the water temp, as the rads can get air locked. don't let it to over heat as it could knacker the temp sensors.
