B E A Utiful.

I hate cleaning SHMBO's black Jetta but there is something about a super clean Black GTi.

Love the wheels and the other mods.

Love the plate, I would put them on mine but sadly i'd get pulled..
Title: Re: Black mk5 ed30
Post by: nicky on August 31, 2013, 07:59:30 pm
Cheers all,

No rubbing at all mate, 225 tyres on a 9" rim gives abit of stretch to help clear the arches just :) mayb if I loaded the back up with people it would catch but I never have people in the back.

^^^ hahaha all with time my friend. I wanted to see what spacer I needed to use before lowering anymore. After fitting the wheel with a 5mm spacer it's not catching at all so I might be able to go another 5-10mm :)

Another thing ticked on the list :)

(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fa279%2Fnickystonehouse%2Fnull_zpsa5c2d270.jpg&hash=40c85fe5f476c44307f6b441a66b0040e0110489)

After fitting I took it for a quick run and the power delivery is total different, feels like it has a lot more power mid range. Uprated clutch next as its starting slip a bit. Stage 2+ is getting closer :driver:
