Or is it a secret :wink: gives the rear wheels negative camber.. better for clearance.. tyres dont wear to badly on the inner edge :lol: .. had all the tracking etc sorted when I changed all the front top mounts & bushes couple days before E38.. Engine wise.. something fruity... been changing alot of bits on it as its clocked up 187k now... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bally 0 Posted October 3, 2007 just in love with those wheels... me too!! 8) Keep thinking abt selling them & the brakes & going wide on 16's with porsche brakes.. but keep getting talked out of it... so focus is to hit the big 200k with the valver & then rip it to peices!!!

Wide on 16s is gooooood, but not if you are thinking of a silly power after ripping the valver to pieces! I'm going to keep my Schmorbets for shows once mine is back on the road, I don't think tramlining with over 250 horses would be particularly beneficial :lol: How far off the 200k are you?

Evening Mr B 250bhp would be what i'd like with awesome torque figure.. but all in good time... well my corrado is abt to hit 190k so 200k isnt to far off :lol: been a while so thought I'd add some pics from VW players & mate G's new garage having few mods done to the exhaust.. comments good or bad....
