Argh lots of bits needed

Recommended Posts

As above, I know this is in the suppliers forum somewhere but I am in a bit of a hurray as need to go on quite a long journey next week.

 

Have had a mate look over the car as have had her for 6 months now and thought I had best get her a good going ovre and he has found quite a few problems. :shock:

 

I need New front Discs and Pads. (is it worth getting standard or something better?)

New rear pads.

2 Front top mounts

2 front shocks.(is it worth getting a set of coilovers and where is the cheepest place to get a semi decent set?)

2 Anti roll bar drop links????

Steering rack gaitor.

And finally a manifold to downpipe gaket.

 

Any help would be greatly appriciated as I need these pretty quick and am also looking for the best deals (will be trawling the internet all evening) as I have just bought my GF an egagement ring (and dont really want to have to send it back to buy bits for the car) and am going skiing next weekend :D

 

Cheers tim

I'd get front and rear pads from GSF - they do free delivery at the moment I think off the web... Pagid fast roads will come to over £50 which you need to spend for this

 

Everything else from VW unless you are upgrading...

New rear pads.

 

I've got Tarox brakes on mine and they are in a completely different league to the standard ones ... fantastic stopping power! The G88 discs are about £175 from motorsportworld.co.uk, Rallye pads are about £65. Pricey but well worth it, my car would be in the written off thread were it not for the brakes!

 

Venom motorsport are good for cheap coilovers, well worth doing just to get rid of the comical ride height!

I think as I need new front shocks and top mounts it would be worth upgrading, considering I want to eventually. Cost as it may I think it would be worth it considering the outlay just for VAG parts.
