^ he went to one 2 fridays ago. what a small world this is, i ran his m3 a while back lol

[koncdead]

You guys will see me around later.y cat feels too stock right now. Can't wait to get everything squared away.

a1234567390: yeah when you walked me was the day I considered picking up a GTI. I was blown away.

[Aguilar]

I love e36 M3s, almost get me one when I got to the island.

As far as VW, just a downpipe and a tune and you'll be hanging with almost everything under 300hp stock.

[GingermanGolf]

Aguilar is right, it's amazing what a few particular mods would do to significantly increase power like a mofo.

Someday I'll have my own GTI!

[koncdead]

Not focused on power right now. But it'll probably be a K04 if I do start doing performance mods.

the apr k04 kit is good for 335 wheel and 335 tq at the wheels with a tbe and intercooler .. no meth needed

[Vegeta Gti]

you need to come to the house since your stock..we'll roll fenders now. then go to chad, buy H&R coils, get some wheels and tyres. euro tails, any interior thingies you want blah blah.

then do the K04.

[MKV_Jetta808]

Fender rolling party?

[koncdead]

I already have my bags ready to be put in just waiting for the guy to do the install. The wheels I'm still undecided if I want to refinish a set of RS or try to make 10.5 et30 fit in the rear.
On the waiting list for golf R tails.

Will need some vagcom and fender rolling though.

Nice. I just put my bags in last week and they are a blast hah. RS's are an awesome idea... Anndddd R tails are the only way to go with Mk6!

Nice! Whats your set up? Who installed and did you get notched?

Airlift front, ss5 rear, 5 gallon tank, no notch yet. I did the entire install myself lol

Nice. How difficult was the install and what type of management?

[oempls]

Congrats on the buy. Did Sam and I do a shoot on your car a couple years back after the Show-n-Shine? Your bimmer looks familiar.

Yes you did, with Ricky and Wil. You had OZ Futuras? Or Mitos?

Yep that was me. Welcome to the darkside Andrew. I am sure I will see ya running around Ewa, I also own a white 4-door MK6.

Congrats on the little one by the way!

Still got the wheels? If so willing to part?

[oempls]

No I actually sold the car to a guy on the island. I know he is still rolling the wheels though. They are drilled 5x114/100. Offsets would be do-able with air though. 18x8.5 with a 35et all the way around.

[koncdead]

Ahh I see. Anyone think I can fit 18x10.5 +30 in the rear? Thinking about some varrstoens. Unless anyone has some deep dish or concave rims for sale? Lmk

Ehhhh... I'll try to make it out. My daughter was just discharged out of the hospital.

ohhhhh damn, everything ok/stable?

Only way you'd be able to pull anything like that is with air and super camer. That offset is a little extreme for a MK6. As for finding wheels around here, goodluck. I had to order the futuras from Memoryfab.com. Sometimes you get lucky though. Luckily for us, 5x112 can run woble bolts for 5x114 pattern wheels.

Yes, she's ok now, thanks. She had a fever on tuesday night. Had to go to ER, ran a bunch of test(blood urine, spinal tap). everything was negative except for her urine. She currently on antibiotics for UTI. She good now thank God!

Ahh from the looks of those on the mkv forum they all needed pulled fenders to run them. Thinking about going 18x9.5 et30 Varrstoens ES 1.1.1 (25.1mm difference from 10.5 et30). Or 17x9 et20 BBS RS (12.7mm difference from 9.5 et30).
Rota Grids 18x9.5 ET30 on static looks like this:

Seems like i could pull it off with air.

Thanks! Yes I can't wait. The shop seems pretty busy. They said by the end of this month though.
I am, still not used to waking up every 2-3 hours at night. trying to find what part of that I can cherish though...

[oempls]

With air, you can usually pull off just about anything.
