Well ive sent payment over to classic part vw in Germany we'll see if they get back to me like Vw heritage( who are the middle man for Vw parts in UK) did and said they are obsolete. Either looks promising up to now

Just enquired about the part with vw classic parts and its got a green light meaning available so asked if it was right

Dont know what youve done mate but looks miles better now on them RH's your going to have some fun on the way down from Newcastle

Right ill tell you were im up to and its not good news, Wipex.co.uk cant reproduce the smaller rod part for one reason or another which isnt good, ive just spoken to VW parts and the smaller rod is definitely obsolete. So at the minute its like speaking to a brick wall with wipex as i would like the old parts back but they are either blanking me or the guy is on holiday. So we need to come up with a plan of how to either restore this part to what it was like brand new or get another company to try to reproduce it. I think the restore part is the easier method as its only the bushes that fail on them and not the metal part. Anyone got any ideas or companies that might be able to help? Cheers Jon

Just sent you a PM about the wheels mate, im now not in need of them cheers anyway Jon

Where are they that cheap mate?

Whats generally the best rubber make to go for winter wise?

Under the rear arm rest maybe

What ever you decide mate with the wheels let me know

Not good Dave but knowing you its going to come back better than ever good luck

312's dont fit under solitudes mate 288's are the limit

Enjoy the running in period mate bored me sh!t less but i know it needs doing. Great now i can rev past 3k revs

Ill be popping down with the GF as its only down the road not running on the roller though, ill also see you on Friday 25th Oct Jim as im booked into stealth for an oil leak to be sorted. Vince said you were in aswell

Alson check the cables going to the starter from the battery positive. Mine turned out to have green corrosion on it found that out having replaced ignition switch and starter motor. Start with the simple things first

Ive got a crazydave one on mine with 263s. I would have thought a stealth map would be best as its rolling roaded to suit

Youll fit mate im 6" 4 but the only way to be sure its ok for you is try one out

Yeah ill pop down for the rolling road day no problem there.

Swap the switch with drivers side and test to make sure it isnt the switch

Are you willing to bring them along to rolling road day as its only down the road from the GF?

Wheels still for sale?

Whats your best price on the alloys ?

Right just a few quick questions Oil sump, there are 2 gaskets listed for the vr6 i presume with mine being a storm i need the later? 021 103 609B ? Now the question why are there 2 different thread depths for the sump bolts and does it make a difference which is fitted? N 900 084 01 - M6 X 14 N 904 234 02 - M6 X 17 Cheers Jon

Bosch 928S for a golf Mk4 are the ones i use for my aero arms

Going to get one of these soon but with the power wire being to small in length what gauge wire kit do i need? Cheers Jon

Worth checking plugs and leads and coil pack/dizzy for any arching. Try the cheap things first
