Dom's Mk4 Story So Far - it's all over!

[bobbarley]

I've none since I put the old wheels back on the car, the thing is a right state.  This one is the Eibach Pro drop though.  With the 16" back on the gap is actually the same as when I was rocking the 18's.

It's low enough, but not too low that it's uncomfortable.  Now I've the little one on the way I'm very glad I never fitted coilovers!

So your happy so far with the dog bone mount.

How much is yours lowered by Nige?

Eibach Pro 40mm kit.  Realistically more like 30mm though.

That's because they ARE 30mm springs 

There was a Sportline? kit which lowered 50mm

I was a little bored the other night so got photoshop open and put the dyno plots from the MK3 & Mk4 onto one graph. Luckily they were both done to the same scale on the dyno so it was pretty easy to do. Shows the difference in power/torque between the old 8v & the 1.8T



Red is obviously the Mk3 and blue the Mk4.

from idle to 1800 revs, see the mighty torque of the 8v

Damn I bet all the 16v boys are green with envy...

Added another sticker today, a guy local to me in Doncaster is starting up his own business 'Only Charged Dubs'. I'm in the process of building his website for him so thought I'd better show some support.

If your in South Yorkshire and looking for somewhere to have some work done then give me a shout, Matt is a fully qualified VW Technician and has worked for VW for the last 6 years so knows what he's doing. He specialises in G60/G40 engines but will undertake work on any VAG car!



Think I need to swap my Carbon sticker for an external one & reposition it now. Just need to get hold of one.....***Looks for Craig***

Also gave it a much needed wash:

Got the offside wishbone bushes changed last night, went for genuine Audi TT bushes for the rear bushes and genuine VW ones for the front bushes.
