Good progress. I hope you attach the exhaust manifold and turbo to the head and maybe also the intake manifold to the head before you install the head on the block. Makes life easier (need 2 people to place the head on the block).

Keep up the good work.

[Majorcina]

Dave i will put the head last,and ofc i will do like u sayed(i planed that to)when i atach evrtyhing i will put the head last,its easyer to sort all others

Looks like they are in good nick. I have 18x8" alloys, and I'll be buying 225/45 tyres. Before I had 225/40 but they are too think, and ride is horrible, so now I will go 225/45, or 225/50 with some spacers. 235 would look good, but I would be spending most of the time in petrol station.

[Majorcina]

Well i toth to go 225/40 or 225/45,but i never drived 18'rims so i am not an expert abouth that,any advice abouth tyre size is welcomed

I had both on my A100, 18s and 16s. Yes, 18s will be harder no doubt, but only difference I felt between 18's and 16's is when you encounter a bigger pothole, then 16's will just go thought it and you'll barely feel it, while on 18's you will.

[Majorcina]

I dont like pothole's so i avoid them maximal,just can u tell me which will sit bether with -30mm springs? i dont want a holl betwen fender and tyre

[hunker7]

Your current tyre diameter including tyre is 63.2mm, so compared to current gap between the tyre and arch, following sizes will be(when lowered 30mm):

225/40 = 32.5mm less
225/45 = 40mm less
225/50 = 55mm less

235/40 = 36.5mm less
235/45 = 48.5mm less
235/50 = 60mm less

[Majorcina]

i need to see what i will be able to find,but it will be 225/40 or 225/45
