Also, those damn "E" stamped plates are gone! Just have plain pressed plates now.

looks nice but your sump must be scraping the floor! mine had scene scrapage and the sump plug was missing half its head when my mk2 vr6 was that low... now raised it up on the coilies  :smiley:

It was for a while... hah, if you read through my thread ive not gone shallow r32 sump, and I have also hockey pucked the engine mounts. It sits about 1 cm above the subframe now. Fingers crossed, I have been ok so far at this height....I do want more lows, though....

Bit of a pointless post really. Im trying to save for a largish update.
My wheels have STILL not landed in the UK. Ive spoken to a few people and we have all come to the conclusion that there must be an issue with Shmidt as people are waiting on things like dishes to arrive. Its been well over a month now.

Minor update:

280mm momo - Ticks box in scene list *sigh* Will no doubt be chopping it out for something with some fluff on to match the dash at a later date :)



Got these free from a mate - so why the hell not? I removed the badges from them and they look pretty good. Nice and simple. Il probably remove them and just put them back in for shows :)



Larger update to follow soon hopefully. Come on rimstyle, hurrythef**kup!

You need a guy called Jolfa on here or Rich@SBP on Edition.
Does a very nice job at about 170 ish all in.
My dash is starting to wear a little in some places now unfortunatley.


Wheels still wont be here untill tomorrow. Rim style have some serious issues that need to be seen to. Communication seems to be lacking in thier warehouse as the wheels have only been sent out this morning, not last friday like they said :(

Nowt wrong with a 5 door mate.

Those leather seats look alright, but not a fan of those harnesses. DH would no doubt point out that they're pointless unless anchored properly. And if you need proper harnesses for track action, you're unlikely to be wanting leather seats.

All for show my friend, I got them for nothing so just stuck um in to just make some use out if them.
They are anchored properly as they should be.
They will be coming out during the week and back to standard belts and maybe just put back in for shows/pod/track action
