thanks 1cleanG - thinking maybe for next next winter when I do plan to drive it.

 

yeah might not be a bad idea. His name is Brandon. def legit!

WHERE IS EVERYONE FROM MN ON HERE?! Seriously, no one has posted in the g5 forum either. I'm startin' to wonder if they're still alive!? LOL


MIKEYYYYYYYYY...WHERE YOU ATTT?! If you wanna get together for new years you're gunna have to come on here!!!! LoL! Need to get his a** on here!!

 

Here I am!! I'm still not sure what I'm doin...all I know is I'm bringin my baby wit me! :-D You plannin to have some ppl over? I'm off Saturday, so I got the day to hang out if your plannin somethin...just gimme a couch

 

I actually don't have plans as of yet either. I'll keep you updated Mike. I need to talk to Linds about it and see if we just want to have peeps over.

Specs of the new wheels were finalized through RAVSPEC today. went w/ the same sizes and offsets as my Volks...

20" with a Non-Step lip
9.5" front with a +35 offset
10.5" rear with a +37 offset

Estimated...3-4 months for arrivvvvvval!

 

I m still around Lance lol Just been spending a lot of time over on the Audi side. Just got my sway bar in today. Trying to find someone to buy my current wheels so I can get a new set but nothin so far.

 

Tevi did you post them up in the classifieds on here? I haven't seen 'em?! Took me what, about 2 months to finally sell my Volks. No, it was more then that because i had them posted before i even went to go pick up the car! Just be patient, you'll get a bite!

did you get the eibach sway? do you have a strut bar too? I don't even remember what you have under the hood of you're car, I've always gotten so distracted by the seXy exterior :-)

 

Thanks Lance lol yeah I have them in the classified and on CL. I know a dude at work who said he might be interested but haven't seen him since I've been on vacation If no1 buys them I'll just end up giving them to my bro so they don't just sit and collect dust. engine bay is pretty much CFed out and I got some eibach springs for the front. I don't plan on doing much more under the hood for a while. Where did you get your car stands from? how much did you spend on that? I'm thinking I should probably start on taking the wheels off now.

 

my stands I just got from Walmart. They were $25- a pair, and then I got their low profile jack. Looked up a LOT jacks and seemed like evvvvery single one at sears fails after a year(craftsman).

hmm...thinkin' we need to get those new springs in! Depends if you want to get your wheels sold and new ones ordered before hand. Kind of puts you in a bind when there's no stockers to throw on for temp. They're also good to have so you don't get flat spots on your tires.

Today after talking to Mark from RAVSPEC, i realized the first advantage of living in MN....plenty of time to order parts and install to get all prepped for spring!!

OH YEAH< i remember seeing your engine bay in some pics you posted up of all the CF! did you ever do CAI? or drop ins?

 

I went with drop ins. Don't wanna give the dealership any reasons or excuses for voiding any part of my warranty.

 

....and you wanna SC yours?? hmmm haha jk!

According to the guys on here it takes quite a bit to void anything internally. Plus I think you're fine as long as you can reverse anything you mod pretty easily as well.

either way...clean air=happy car!!

 

SC or TT is once my warranty is up haha coz it won't matter then. Yeah I read up on the warranty stuff and even ask the dealership but it's more of a piece of mind for myself. I think you and I should go FI at the same time

 

I'm not sure if I'll ever get to that point. I will 100% going FI...but as in fast intentions :-) haha...for the exhaust. For forced induction, I've read so much about pros and cons of a single vs twin turbo w/ the differences of torque and where it kicks in. The actual SC is more evenly distributed overall, but WOW the decisions to be made in the next few years!

 

checked...my stands and jack are "blackjack" brand. very high quality for the price, and recommended on the forums.


....TEVVVVVI....you mayyyy not even recognize my car this spring :-) I'll maybe set up a personal unveiling before hand, JUST 37 to 37 owner ;-) haha!

 

I'm down with that and thanks for the stands info

 

Tevi, when you wanna throw you're front springs in?
