  1. Well, that's taken me nearly an hour and a half to read and digest!

    Interesting reading for sure!

    What I came round to thinking is that an hour and a half is about half the time it would take me to drive from London to Derby to get my money back.

    If there are still people waiting for refunds I can't believe you've not been up there asking for your cash in preson. After all most of us drive that far every other weekend during summer to stand in a field or on a disused runway and show our cars, let alone when there's nearly £2k at stake in most cases!!

    Hope everyone gets sorted out soon!

  2. I had the exact same problems with my RH wheels ordered from germany.

    Naturally the problem was the pcd was different and the offset was too big (et60).

    Phoned up a RH dealer in the UK and he sold me proper RH adaptors.

    I know its a different company' date=' but have you called BBS up, they might be able to sort you out with some proper adaptors?

    im guessing the pcd is 5x112, golf is 5x100, get some hubcentric adaptors if possible.

    Which RH dealer did you phone in the UK and how much were the adapters, I just threaded one of the bolt holes in mine &|

  3. As Justin said, I had my Mk3 gti 8 valve converted to VR6 spec by Strictly Dubs and I can't fault their work... It's a factory looking and feeling job and was turned around in record time, they (Paul & Simon) are both really knowledeagble and will give you any advice on tuning etc. If you've got any questions mate, PM me and I'll gladly talk to you about my dealings with them

  4. Looking to change the plugs & leads on my VR and was wondering if you guys had any reccomendations. Are the VW ones up to the job (Beru I think?) or are there better ones out there. I'm not looking to spend fortunes as I've just done the VR conversion and am also a bit sceptical about power gains from just plugs & leads, although if you know different please share your experience.

    Thanks in advance!
