Quick update...

 

The Friday before Edition 38, Gav and Nik dropped a couple of bits and bobs off chez nous, and as the special super cheap coilies had arrived we (well, I say we, it was more Gav) decided to surprise Mrs B and fit them whilst she was at work.

 

The man hard at work :)

Well, when I picked Mrs B up from work, she didn't even notice it was a LOT lower, well not until we pulled away and she noticed the slightly harder ride :wink:

 

Anyway, didn't get any pics straight after fitting the coilies, or indeed at ED38, so spent today washing Tubbs ready for pics and fitting the front and rear speakers that were in the 306. I didn't realise the covers came of the rear quarter speakers until I'd completely removed the trim panel. What a d1ck :lol: It was a right royal pain in the bum to get out too. Anyhoo, speakers are loads betterererer, Mrs B just needs to save up for the Hertz kit that she heard at the 'Four' stand at Edition :norty:

 

After a good clean today! I did it yet again :roll:

Looks really good :) always have had a bit of a soft spot for the mk3 VR6, and with that list of plans, that'll make it into a really fun beast.

As always that original list of things Mrs B wants has indeed changed....ox blood red leather now! 8)

Put the ride height back up again yet Stu??

Yeah, it settled loads over the Edition weekend, to the point where we had an inch clearance on the sump :shock: Needless to say I raised it an inch or so :lol: seems to be OK now though, just need to get the camber set-up right now. :(

Only took about 18 months, but, I never thought I'd be happy about fitting new number plates....

need spacerrzz :)

 

I know what you mean. I've just put my winter Solitudes on my VR6 Golf, and I am trying to get used to the change in stance, with the wheels so much further tucked in than with the LMs on.
