Going from 20" -> 19" wheels lets me drop my car another 1.5-2.25"
I haven't tweaked the suspension yet - planning to dial the coils soon
And I thought I was already low on 20" wheels :fuckthatshit: Yes, I will be tucking them

Still need to dip 2 wheels in a heavy gloss black.

You should buy my varianzas they're 18 with lip totally VIP and will make it even lower!

Installed SRI on my car a couple days ago too
I floor my car wherever I can... sounds like a turbo is spooling in my N/A car :lawl::sweetjesus:

I CAN'T STOP

TjAlmeida 06-28-2013 10:01 PM

Installed injectors in the Dodge. Smokes a lot without a turbo yet but it was worth it.

Huge fuel leak though, that will have to get dealt with after the long weekend

^is that a 3 inch lip? it looks smaller..maybe cuz of the reflection off the face.

Anyhow, washed my car too and sealed the powdercoat on my vs xx's

jtrinh 06-29-2013 11:06 AM

about 2.4 in the front and 3 in the rear. How did you go about sealing your vs-xx?

Gh0stRider 06-29-2013 01:16 PM

new tires for the bike!! :)

SpuGen 06-29-2013 02:32 PM

Alignment was way off, and bcrdukes gave me some goodies with the car.

Installed Techno Toy RCA's. This is what happened to the front.
Rears had no issues. In fact, it tweaked the rear toe issues back to 0.

Good thing I'm in Steel Fab. I'm used to squaring things off in little to no time at all. Toe is waaaaay off. Same with Camber.

https://fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.n...82854142_n.jpg

The fix? Jack it back up and throw in the Outer Tie Rods, also by Techno Toy.
https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.n...55347262_n.jpg

Oh yeah, that's good stuff.

Went to Dales for alignment this morning.
Toe was barely off. All they really did was even out the Camber and eliminate front toe.

Solution to all car problems?
Install cool shit.

KO7 06-29-2013 03:58 PM

Had my car VAG-COM'd today for opening or closing all windows with the remote, plus being able to lock my Kessy equipped GTI with the remote with the ignition running.

CorneringArtist 06-30-2013 06:57 PM

Sorted out my ride height issue with melloman today. Turns out I screwed up doing preload on both sides, and despite looking somewhat even, the rear coils were unequal. Car is sitting how I want it now :toot:
