  1. I'll fuckin do it babe. I'll car fax anything. I'll car fax you how do ya like that??
  2. Greg I have the same problem on my white R and I beleive it to be the steering rack unfortunately
  3. Did you install the sweet ass oil pressure sensor thingy????
  4. This car is going to be so much fun to drive
  5. Party on the sides business in the front... that's Andy
  6. You keeping the calipers red Andy? Would look sweet matched to your paint.
  7. Yup. Still in the car going strong. I just think it's a good idea to have extra ones laying around in case I decide to blow it up.
  8. Kev do you still live in delaware? Is this the white 850R? Might be interested in the trans depending how good she is. And R bumper.
  9. Congrats Matt. I've been following your vids on youtube, definitely a little jealous.
  10. So I'm guessing the threads on coilovers can take a crazy amount of abuse? I've always wondered how that works. It looks like all of the force from any bump you hit is pushing up against the threads.
  11. dude bro it looks sick nasty
  12. I think the facebook group and people only internet browsing with their phones has something to do with it as well.
  13. 4 weeks isn't bad at all! I've actually always thought the 4spd was a pretty decent transmission. Stomping the pedal at 25 or 50 was always brutal, and I'm still not good enough at driving manual to replicate how that felt. My one complaint with the m56 is how high it revs when coasting on the highway over 55, it makes me want another gear. Question.... do you have any gear rattle?
  14. Zeds dead baby. Everyone check this shit out. The brakes charge an electric motor that goes apeshit out of the turns. You can hear it.
  15. i love u. Don't ever give up edit: btw Matt the tune you gave me for your 19t kicks ass, and I'm pretty sure you said it was conservative. I can't even keep up shifting through the gears.

    Do you have adjustable struts on there? Looks like you have a decent amount of camber
  17. I know you're kidding around and I'm sure you know this already but weight loss helps regardless of the car son. Extra weight in a Volvo is no different than extra weight in a Porsche. And honestly our cars are pretty light, It looks like I only have about 200 pounds on your gti. (without my dynamat and sound system) Anyway I'm assuming Gdog was more concerned with added weight causing stress to the already shitty dash mounts, not quarter mile times. I actually added dynamat to the dash itself and any exposed metal behind it. That coupled with the reinforced fiber glass, the dash makes literally zero noise for probably the first time in over 10 years.
  18. Completely negligible. Buy two boxes of the stuff and you'll quickly realize it's nothing to worry about.
