Everytime I go up this driveway curb I feel like the rear of the car is coming off the ground and promptly dropping as I continue to move forward...This time I decided to go over it again and stop, and to my belief, the right rear tire is about 6-8 inches off the ground... Oh well..



That is all.

 

Look!! Its pissing.

Stiff chassis and short wheelbase FTW.

 

Luckily it's not RWD with an open diff

 

At least you don't need a jack to change a flat tire. lol Those cars have great handling.

 

I did that with my girlfriends Cooper and she thought I broke the car

 

nice! proves the suspension.

whats the 1/4 mi on that lill guy?

 

I am lowered w/ the Eibach Pro-Kit, about 1" all around, and an H&R 24mm Sway Bar in back

Stock, you're anywhere in the 14.5-15.5 area depending on the driver...I'm also driving 6 speed, while the DSG will probably do the 1/4 quicker than my stick with lonnnnng throws...

 

Look at the ass of my car...that's what 3 days of rain does to a white car...

 

Cool.

 

Hahaha, hilarious.

 

thats awesome.

 

That is one thing I've always liked seeing the Golfs do. Happens in every slalom race with them too.

 

My sti does that also.

 

I could've guessed it had a big rear swaybar by the pic.

 

Proves what?

 

Chassis/suspension stiffness and short springs....Not much suspension travel...

 

Is it a harsh ride as well? Even in stock form? Those cars are great for autox. I like that bodystyle best out of the previous gens. This one looks more agressive.

 

It's not really a harsh ride, the springs I put are (I think) 25% more stiff than stock. You feel more of the bumps because it's a short wheelbase with low profile tires and bigger wheels (18x7-225/40/18) usually will get you an overall stiffer ride.

 

did you see the photo?

 

My MS6 does that too.

 

Nice Photo !!

 

Cool.

 

I like that. Is that the vortex lip kit you have on there?

 

It's "Votex", and yes, I have the factory Votex bodyit...

hittin the switches??

 

Hey...you know those GTI's like to cock that rear wheel in the air going around the corners

 

yea sorry I was thinking about vwvortex when I was typing it hahaha looks nice man, that kit makes the car so much better. I was between getting a brand new rabbit, a used GTI, used 3G tl or a used g35. G35 didn't do it for me cuz the winters are horrible in canada. And gti is nice, and fast, and mod friendly, but there wasnt that luxury in the car and they were priced the same as a used 3G which is freaking retarded. So I got a 3G, but I still love the GTI
