dub_weiser 0 Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 Got the coilovers and RH Toplines fitted today and to say I'm chuffed is an understatement. Can't stop grinning totally tranformed the car. Even the guy who MOT'd the car this morning was lost for words!!! Link to post Share on other sites
Pittuf 0 Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 Nice one mate, gonna get some pics up then?Still ain't fitted mine, got all the bits from vw now, just not sure if i'm gonna get the chance to fit them this weekend ~Two weekends i've had free and not had the bits, this weekend i've got the bits just don't know if i'll be free, ~ Link to post Share on other sites
Pittuf 0 Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 By the way, did you fit the coilovers yourself in the end or get someone else to do it? Link to post Share on other sites
dub_weiser 0 Posted June 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 I've had the wheels three months so I hear your frustration. Decided against rolling my arches as I've got 215/40/17's but still managed a sweet drop. Will get some pic's up as soon as I find my camera charger LOL. Now for air filter BMC CDA and exhaust which as of yet I'm undecided. Link to post Share on other sites
dub_weiser 0 Posted June 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 Got them fitted mate, if it was standard suspension I may have been tempted but wanted to make sure I got it right with the coilovers. Link to post Share on other sites
Pittuf 0 Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 I need some new wheels as well mate, got TSW Venoms which look ok but are sooo dated now. Just can't afford it.Need an exhaust also but will have to wait untill the standard one breaks before I change it. Can't justify it otherwise! Link to post Share on other sites
dub_weiser 0 Posted June 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 Yeah just a little dated LOL. Can't bear the look of the standard exhaust althou funds are a little tight now. Where in essex you from mate? Link to post Share on other sites

dub_weiser 0 Posted June 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 Was gonna say that but didn't wana go there, still nice roads for letting the VR be pushed. Not been to a J29 meet yet, but may do if time allows. Had suspension fitted at Style Dynamix, and they got a show n shine happening on 25th July. Was a good turn out last year from memory .

Pittuf 0 Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 Yeah mate, nothing better than showing off your car.Especially when people take note and comment on em.I used to luv my festa for that, you don't see many RS1800's about, loads of people used to comment on it, I had people offer me money for it, even now, with it being written off 7 months ago, my local garage asks me about it.
