My 1996 Silver ABY Coupe

Excellent progress! You need some wider spacers on those rear wheels

I'm at 20mm, I can't go any further I think

about the rear wheels Ryan.Everything looks great but the spacing on those rears.Otherwise beautiful car and superb work going on.

[rynaqui]

Thanks mate, hopefully we can finish by tomorrow with no problems

[Rusty]

Are they not not on adaptors? 5x112 to 5x130?

Stunning car Ryan, but where are the eta bettas gone? they look much better

They are, think it would be ok to go wider than 20mm?

They are in the garage waiting for a refurb but way too much $$ needed to get them right

In the meantime

Here it is all done today, pictures attached

Met with my friend Kenneth on the road today in his Audi RS3, he could only just about keep up with me

So happy right now I can't describe it . The IROZ motorsport downpipe fit like a glove, spot on and top work all round

[AndyP]

Those seats look amazing I prefer the old wheels though

[gavs20v]

Engine bay and interior look stunning !

Porsche cups really need spaced out further to fill those arches

[Error404]

Wow!


I agree with Andy about the wheels

[Rusty]

You've put a huge amount of time, money and effort in to thus and it's looking great.

Bolt on adaptors can be as large as you like, really. With the cups being 7J, they are quite narrow. You can get the sane style but wider.

I'd say rear of a coupe needs et20-25 to fill the wheel wells. Fronts look inboard due to narrower rim.

Did you go 225 or 215?

[Jack4688]

I'm just jealous of the weather you've had today

[quattrostyle]

How are the seats mate? Looking good there that's for sure. I like the RS3 as well, very nice.

Thanks Andy! They are really comfortable too especially compared to the old torture racks . I assume the 18" split rims as the other 17" I had were . Maybe I'll have them fixed some day

Thanks Gav

I think I may buy spacers to fill the rear arches more, I think 25mm should be enough to give me ET30 in case I want to lower it more once I've had the exhaust done

Wow!

Thanks Alex, you too?

I went for 225 all round . Wouldn't ET25 stick out too much?

It's been great, every day actually

Haven't had this much fun driving the S2 in a long time, also made a couple of Jap crap eat my dust tonight , the thing sounds absolutely mental with just a downpipe on

They are absolutely amazing, so comfortable and they hold you in great, couldn't have asked for a better set of seats and they came out great from the trimmer

[quattrostyle]

Good to hear you are enjoying the car. Sounds mental indeed, no more money for the rest of the exhaust?
