Nice! Would be a lot of nice work on the back to get 9s on that low though?

With 9.5 you have to pull the archs out very much. Its a bit dificult without camber

Not much happening lately got bored at work so cleaned the engine bay found a random plug that doesnt seem to go anywere, also suprised that the latest drive shaft change has lasted 3 months so far, touch wood itll be another 3 more months. Cleaned the exhaust and hoovered the interia out, bled the brakes, regreased the beam and yes I was bored

Will be a tight fit but got camber adjusted top mounts so once I get time not cut the suspensoin turret I can get more camber on the front and hopefully fingers crossed I get a cambered beam soon so theyll fit like a glove

Love the small license plate..
Btw, you gonna work VERY hard to put 9j on front, the camber will help a lot but anyway have much poke. I will find some picture of a mk1 with 9j on front and camber too. You should know him, the hediis who have for now the mk3 gti with the rs's in 15", from poland.
