No, this is absolutely not correct. I was in shipping on friday and personally helped label all of the boxes that came in / already were in stock.

Futrell just notified me that they will be delivered by the end of the week!

Those wheels posted above are Beetle RSi Wheels and they are unfortunately no longer for sale.

And that's a shame! Those look great!

If I recall correctly, the New Beetle Cup wheels are 18x9 ET10. So even if they were available, the fit would be tricky....

Ah, fair enough. I'm still a little old school, and sort they reminded me of my old Aristos, just a bit more aggressive.

Arin,
How much drop can be expected on the VWR StreetSport coilovers with fixed dampers? Is it about equal to what the adjustables would be at setting of 6 on a scale of 1-12?

Arin,

I dont know of the exact drop, but if you're looking to SLAM the car way out of the tolerance of what would be good for handeling, these will not allow you to go that far. It's a good drop though and looks perfect in my opinion.

The height adjustments between the streetsport and streetsport plus (fixed damping vs adjustable damping) is identical.

Is it about equal to what the adjustables would be at setting of 6 on a scale of 1-12?

The damping adjustment is equal to the dead center on the adjustable dampers.

The height adjustments are the same between the two sets.

If anyone would like to see what the filter looks like on the VWR intake, here you go! I see on facebook people are installing the intakes. Who got theirs?

[.:R Driven]

I take it this filter is lifetime ?

[Arin@APR]

Yup

[usurpers26]

Any update on ETA for all the "initial" orders?

What is the maintenance schedule for the filter, if any?

I got mine yesterday. Getting it installed tomorrow morning along with stage 1+ and HPFP. Have to take advantage of the sale.

[dummy]

Can you get these wheels ?

5x112 et45

Contact HPA Motorsports, they run something almost identical in an 18x9 fitment on all their R32s. They may be able to point you in the right direction.

[Arin@APR]

Any update on ETA for all the "initial" orders?

Many have already received the intake and there are more shipments going out every week.

What is the maintenance schedule for the filter, if any?

The maintenance schedule is written right under the housing and says "service every 20,000 miles".

is this the one to order for the golf R or the flat panel?

[brandonekingatl]

How long before VWR releases their sway bar full kit for the R? Any idea?

[Arin@APR]

is this the one to order for the golf R or the flat panel?

This is part of the cold air intake that completely replaces the OEM intake system.

[Arin@APR]

Testing them now.

[CALICSGR]

Does anybody have experience with the VWR wheels? I'm cross-shopping these now for a purchase this week or next. Thanks.

[Arin@APR]

Fantastic!

[jsausley]

That's a good look. Lower but not slammed, I like it. How much of a drop is that? Looks like about 1.5-2" or so?

Not sure, I can find out though. Futrell Autowerks did the install. My target was this look:


After settling it dropped quite a bit... too much in my opinion.
Here is a photo right after install:


After settling I had them raise the front 3/4" and rear 1/2". I'll ask them what the final settings we ended up on. I'm sure I'll readjust again after I get my 19" Talladegas.

[Arin@APR]

Good to see people not slamming the suspension all the way down!

Euro springs + 19" wheels is the magic combo here.

[sup_lado]

Arin, where is the dyno figure of having the vwr intake and rsc exhaust?

[.:R Driven]

Euro springs + 19" wheels is the magic combo here.

Damn, that looks really good So how much does the Euro spec R spring lower the NA spec R front/rear any numbers out there...
