coming into any section and asking to be spoon fed will guarantee you the same result. you've been around long enough to know how the search function works.

now if you'll excuse me i'm off to go start another "how do i lower it" thread because we don't see enough of those around here.

This is my first Air Cooled VW just wanting to kno what people have set up. I need an adjustable front beam not sure if I want it narrowed, no drop spindles for me at first cash is limited. just wanting to bring the ghia down from stock about 1.5' or 2' sometimes people are helpful and that's what im looking for thanks.

all your questions could easily be answered if you simply were to search.

lowering, narrowing, etc are nothing new at all in aircooled land....so guess what, there's a thread for it. actually there's more threads than one could count about this.

and i don't give 2 sheits if this is your 10th aircooled. you're asking already answered questions.

not helpful enough? good. spoon fed threads about lowering, narrowing, etc can GTFO

go look thru the slammed aircooled pic thread or the countless ones about lowered ghia's on thesamba until you find the look you're after. then simply copy paste said picture in a post in either the slammed aircooled thread over here or wherever you found said pic and simply inquire about the setup. 9 times out of 10 someone will chime in to what it has. done.

starting a thread about wanting someone to help you and hold your hand because you're new just isn't going to be productive. not in this forum anyways.

you should get into PR bro

Point taken, while im new to air cooled i haven't used the vortex in a while mainly because of having your head bitten off for asking for assistance or advice. I don't need someone to "hold my hand" just relax and if you don't like the thread just keep on walkin, there are thousands of other more interesting posters out there for you. On the other hand thank you for your advice

if you were to go start a "how do i do a 1.8t swap?" thread in the mk3 section or similar thread in the MK5 section about bagging your ride you'd be met by far more condescending pricks than myself. and why is that you may ask? it's because people starting those threads are common place and those questions have been asked and answered time and again.

fact is that the vortex is a great source of information. but it's also been around for quite some time. so that means that the chances of finding an answer to your question over a common topic are already out there and have probably been covered quite a few times over.
