Black Friday…best deals?
Birchy:
So what new parts are people looking to pick up this month with Black Friday coming up?
I’ll be looking at a brake upgrade now I’m at stage 2+. Have been eyeing up the Porsche Macan front calipers with VBT 345mm discs. They seem like a decent price for what you can get.
Any thoughts on best places to look for various things?
Clarkj93:
Nice... big chunky boys they are. And reasonable like you say. I'm on 340mm with a golf r caliper so still a single pot and that was an enormous difference so that should be even better again.
I'm watching for deals on Super pro bushes to change all control arms over from rubber to Super pro and specifically their competition spec ones where applicable. Awesome gti I've found to do some black Friday deals so keeping an eye on their site mainly.
A bucket seat from GSM or Demon tweeks is also something I'm watching out for
Birchy:
Yeah, am hoping for a decent pedal feel. Although I’m not anticipating tracking the car and am upgrading partially for the aesthetics! I can’t be the only one?!
Do you think there’ll be much of a difference in the normal road superpro bushes to the competition ones? I take it you do some track days?
Clarkj93:
Yeah tbh they look great, being super bulky they look pretty impressive.
I'm dubious to be honest as technically the Poly bushes behave more like a bearing anyway so not sure the additional hardness rating will actually make much difference it may just be a marketing thing to present themselves against powerflex and their competition range but it's all the same price and not bothered about ride quality so why not!
Birchy:
:signLOL: would be unlike a big company to use marketing to get you to pay more for something!
