I changed my bulbs in my dash yesterday, looks much better now

I will keep mine stock green. It is just nice getting a late VR6 cluster to match the late dash I have, plus I needed a VR6 cluster for the swap.

 

US Clusters also only go up to 140... it was a good deal I couldnt pass up

I done mine blue to match my headunit. those wheels will be awesome, how wide are they?

The wheels are 16x9. Should provide for some fun. Now I need to sell my Mk1 Cabby to fund wheels for the Audi also :lol:

I'm refurbing some porsche 928 wheels at the moment, I thought mine were wide. I got some 30mm adapters to so I should be pretty wide

went to the shop with one of the wheels. Thought I would mock them up to see how far I needed to pull the arches

 

 

I also seem to not have any clearence between the frame and the rear beam now :sad:

lol these wheels are getting too popular... what ET's you get??

 

myn has enough clearance to clear rear beam... my fenders have been pulled & tucked..

[PiercedWinky 0]

They are a classy wheel, but over here I have only seen a few sets.

 

They are et 15 in the rear and 25 up front. My car is a bit of a bastard child for suspension though. I have vr6 plus suspension in the front and the g60 rear beam. There is a vr6 rear beam I am going to put in to get a little wider in the rear.

 

The wheels clearing the beam isn't my issue, with how low I am the beam is hitting the frame rails on the car.

[PiercedWinky 0]

Havent done too much to the car lately. I have been busy working and spending time with the girl.

 

Nathan got off his ass and sent my front wheels finally.

 

The truck is one hell of a machine. :shock:

 

Got camber?

 

Also been modding the A6 a bit. H&R race springs, RS6 swaybars, and stereo stuff

Thanks man, its a bit of a mess in there right now. There are 3 of us that share the shop and 2 of us have all been working on some crazy projects lately.

 

The truck you see in the pictures is plain rediculous. 87 Toyota long bed, bed has had 1 foot sectioned out of it so it is a normal sized bed but the tailgate doesnt stick out as far, and we chopped off the independant front suspension in place of an older solid axel. Front suspension was moved forward 3 inches, rear was moved back an inch.

It was a bit of a frame off type of project

We like to have fun out here ;-)

 

Some parts got shipped out for the audi... Stub axels for the front and a welded center diff... RWD fun for the summer :cuckoo:

[PiercedWinky 0]

The audi is sitting a bit lower now, and Chris is sending me some goodies for the Corrado...

 

 

Corrado Goodies: :grin:

;)

[The_Dude 0]

What's that? Boobs in a can? :lol:

[PiercedWinky 0]

[PiercedWinky 0]

Chris finally got my new brakes to me:

 

 

All torn down for a rebuild

 

Made my Crystal clear/red tails all red

 

New coilovers:

 

 

One of my friends ships out to Iraq later this month. Midway through his tour he will be in germany for a while. The plan is to get a Wiechers roll bar back to me stateside without the 600 bucks it costs for shipping. :cuckoo:

[The_Dude 0]

Six hundred bucks! Fluck me...that's like twice the price of the bar in the first place! :shock:

Shipping is outrageous from Germany to the states. My girlfriend has family in Germany that sent her a couple pounds of chocolate, shipping was like 50 bucks :cuckoo: :hitler:

 

Hopefully will get some work done this weekend
