The only issue I have with it, is when it takes off in traffic it can be a bit aggressive, however this is self inflicted because I've flashed the car and also removed the DBW throttle delay 😂 -
Need a good TikTok dance before changing a flat tyre.
-
I don't have this issue in the VW at all.
-
Wheel bearing, this happened on my shit box R33 as well.
-
Can't say it's my style
-
Just none under 30k with under 70k kms lol.... Yeah nah lol
-
@ActionDan thanks bro! Yeah might as well just keep it in the garage, cbf dealing with 20 year old kids that want to offer $20k for it. @Jasoncauser the Subarus might tick a few boxes, but the CVT box is just woeful. I cannot stand it, also they have fk all sound deadening too. I might end up with a 2nd Tiguan, who knows LOL. I do want a station wagon though, can jam in a pram, esky and other shit for mini trips. The Tiguan, although "appears" big actually has a very short boot which doesn't allow for much.

If you're going to at least attempt any kind of electric fan, get a shroud and a 16" Spal fan, or a pair of decent twin 12" Spal or Flex-a-Lite fans.

In addition, we'll need 2x family movers (especially with another kid on the way).

Yeah, I think no one in their right mind would give me $55~$60k for my car, although it would cost much more to replicate (once you factor in all the tuning hours put into it with multiple tables, scaling, etc.). At present I'm looking at these options 2019+ Skoda Octavia 162TSI 2019+ Skoda Superb 162TSI 2019+ VW Passat 140TSI 2019+ VW Golf R Wagon In no particular order, just needs AEB, Lane Assist, Adaptive cruise and needs to be sub $30k & 70k kms.

They're worse than the stock fan.
-
LOL.. calm down, you mean since 2018 lol.
-
Added that odo wind back sauce lol..
-
Get farked... I've spent more than enough money on this heap of shit. Next mod is a new car.
-
Good luck mate, hope you're able to get a response and your parts.

Maybe try hit up that shop that starts with D ends with E on IG DMs. Might be an easier way to make contact? Any chance you can just cancel your H e order? Then just hit up Ben from Third Strike Fabrication and get him to make you exactly what you tried to order. He used to work there.
-
Let me guess, is does it start with a H and end with an e? Big issues with that lot when it comes to retail customers. Unless you're a big shop, you'll be forgotten about. Someone on IG I talk to had enough, and rocked up unannounced and was ready to crack it but the owner's wife was there, defused the situation and they grabbed the things he needed off the shelf and gave it to him (probably destined for a shop, etc.).
-
Yeah my current weakest link are the tyres, if I change to proper semi slicks I "might" be able to do 3~5 hot laps, but something else might give instead LOL (this is for the GP Circuit at SMSP) Hence somewhat I'm happy to just run street tyres. Back in the Wakefield days, running Nitto NT01 I was able to do 5~8 hot laps at a time, the only thing that gave up was the brakes OR the motor would push coolant (when I had a stock motor pushing 372kW lol).
-
Since you'll be heading out to All Shit Box Day, I mean All Jap Day and doing the sprint sessions I suggest this during the 15 minute window Come onto the track, use this time to reacquaint yourself with the lap, then on the T17 start to push Do 2x hot laps 1x cool down 1x hot lap 1x cool down Session over

Better off learning to tune on a stock motor, you don't want to be learning on a built motor that's making 500 to 600kW.
-
I never bothered take off to check, I saw damage on the head, block scoring and just launched the motor. The cam caps were scored though, looked like metal bits went through the motor, when I drained the oil it looked like glitter lol.

@Murray_Calavera from what I see, the harness bar, and 6 point harness (coming soon), will hold up much better than the factory restraint in a crash. How I see it, it's better than OEM, so survivability increases. Even with a roll cage, on a frontal impact or side impact irs still game over. Will need a full cage to actually make a difference to safety. Hopefully with Wakefield's new owners, we are all able to head back out there again, have fun at lower speeds.
