I really like this! Sits nicely at the back, like others have said another 10mm at the front to dial in some rake and that's a very nice stance indeed!
Can I say 'stance' on here...? Haha!
Love the alloys too. What width are they? And what coilovers are you on?
Just bought a nice red 16v myself and I've got plans a plenty. Good to see cars like yours to see what can be achieved.

Lovely car.
Well I'm tryin to work out how I can get the front a bit lower
The speedlines are 18" et 45(I think) and 7.5j all round
Coilovers are TA technics off eBay! £500!
Yer well I lik to be different and try things and I think I'm doin pretty well
Still a lot to do to tidy it up!
My roof lining is next! It's sagging and really getting on my wick
Money well spent though pal. Never really fancied grey or silver for the coupe but for some reason your car just works. Wheels make it quite OEM looking and don't look out of place, even if they're considered a little modern by the purists!
Keep the updates rolling - most of the stuff you've done like the wiper delete is stuff I've had in mind for mine, so I'll keep an eye on your developments
Just got to get this issue with the metering head fixed (bloody motronic!) and then I'll be looking at shiny bits..

Thanx buddy,
Yer I chose the wheels for the reason that there audi wheels, cool and kinda
OEM!
And hey work!
My mates got some fat5's I'm gonna try on soon for fun!
Yer the rear wiper delete was my fav mod!
Makes the rear end so much cleaner and smother!
Ahh yeah fat fives! Had those in mind myself! I'm still not 100% on any wheel, just know I want 18s with some good dish. So will have to be 4x108 or 4x100 redrilled - I'll lose any chance of dish if I go for a 5x whatever wheel as the adaptor would mean I'd have to have a high offset.
I'll start my own build thread once it's alive and back from the garage rather than hijack yours! Haha!
All good helpful info though. One quick question - how much clearance do you have between wheel/tyre and adjuster/strut running these coilies?

You will struggle to find nice wheels 17"-18" in 4x100 or 4x108 hence I
Had to get adaptors!!
I'd say cut off a coil and adjust from there, but that's all a bit dodgy! Gotta be custom springs - get em 15mm shorter to allow adjustment on the threads and you're sorted!
