    Yeah I am planning on going with the 323, I had hopes of putting them on last week, but time was short, with a little luck they will go on in the next couple weeks.

      Couple updates...

      Lost over 36 kilos of weight:
      I can't believe how heavy the r38s are...



      compared to OZ Chrono Evo Wheels








      I have HIDs in the Rs2 lights which really makes the fog lights pointless, however with the yellow french spec i think in rainy/foggy situations will actually be visible and help with lighting... who knows.

        So just a little update, I am trying to get ready for a little get together in las vegas with a bunch of old quattros, and i decided to take on a project.... Swapping my RS2 turbo for a more modern and efficient k24, along with VEMS

        RS2 K24 7200 meet Volvo K24 7400





        RS2:


        Volvo:


        and stock K26 #6 hotside next to rs2, this is the hotside i'll be modifying to fit... or so i hope.

                        more random updates, some time back i purchased a set of Black roof trims for the coupe, finally got around to installing....
                        the flash washed it out a bit, it is actually black.


                        picked up these for next to nothing, i'll try them out and see how i like the look/fit:
                        18x8.5 et 32 and under 9 kilos (wheel, not with tires)


                        had a new windscreen fitted:

                        of course it had leaks after... had to take it back and have them re-do it this time they did it right.

                            If you can, please show how the piston looks in that cylinder as well.
                            I can't imagine it being very pretty.

                              Doesn't look good at all, good luck getting it built back up again.

                                If you still have the rear number plate plinth and all red rear lights. Would you sell them and ship them to UK?
