Well done!

Thank-you! It’s still nowhere as clean as your ED30 – I really want my wheels refurbished at some point as the faces were refreshed when I bought the car, but the inners are quite scabby…

Cheers Dazza. They are ridiculous money! I got a new old stock passenger side one for £20 (which is what they should be), but the drivers side was £58.18 incl. VAT from VW. I must be mad, but I wanted it to be right…

Thanks – I appreciate it!

Thanks Martin – appreciate the comments! Even though the car had ARB’s and springs before, the dampers and brakes have now tightened the car properly. I now feel that I am happy to start some power increases in the future…!

Think its a great looking car, them brakes look great!

Top Work!

Thank-you Alex! The brakes are good compared to the standard set-up – I hope the powdercoat finish lasts well as the standard OEM finish was just dull…

Thanks Olly – that means a lot from a true dub veteran! IMHO the ED30 needs very little visually, but just a few extra tweeks underneath to make it extremely capable.  How’s the Touran build going?

Great work, just coming close to fitting my R32 setup after 'refurbish' so thanks for the heads up on the rear lines!

Done a bit of googling and found a vortex page showing the clips purpose, needed as so to space them out a bit further compared to the standard retainer. Also have ordered some from VW at 50p a piece. Does seem strange hel don't inform / include in the kits for such a small cost.

What clips are you referring to? Can you show what VW Vortex topic explained it?

Thanks :smiley:

v4rley:
link to vortex, Algthough it doesn't make any reference to the clips but shows there purpose..

Clips from VW are part number: 4D06111715B


The clips in the above photo as after the hardline. If you google the clip your soon spot them in the photo

Thanks. :happy2: My mechanic fitted the rear R32 brakes on my Ed. 30 without the clips. He never said anything about having trouble doing it or the need for getting something to extend the hardline. I have pictures of them fitted on my project. :smiley:
