What wheels are you planning to buy?

I'm waiting for the new year due to a coming change in taxes and I'm going for the OZ Ultraleggera 8Jx18'' 5x112 ET45 Matte Graphite Silver. :drool:



When I searched for a new set I looked mostly for a lightweight wheel with appealing design that I could afford. I think these fit the requirements. :smiley:

Thanks! If you need any help just ask, I'll try my best. :drinking:

Shoduchi:
I remembered that friend who retrofitted the OPS sensors and RVC made a short youtube video of the process. It has been +2 years and at the time my Golf still had the GTI front splitter and rear valance.

I hope you'll like it. :smiley:

Shoduchi:
Watching the video carefully noticed that my shifter isn't like what I expected. It's like the ones from the 5 speed gear boxes. I'm glad I've returned the other 6 speed generic short shifter... :ashamed:

I'll have to reconsider the shifter upgrade. Neuspeed sells a short shifter but it's too expensive IMO (£140.26+shipping). I think I can still fit the 42 DD bushes for 5 speed gear boxes. :confused:

I hope this kit fits: http://www.awesomegti.com/car/vw/golfmk5/42-draft-vw-shifter-bushing-kit-mk5-5s-my06-07.

Shoduchi:
After getting a remap adjustment here's the outcome. :smiley:

Old map vs adjusted map:


The bum dyno already suspected these results. :grin:

On another note found an OEM short shifter for my gear box. It's from the Audi TT with 5 speed:  8J0711046D.



Still have to ask for it's price to see if it's worth it.
