rear shocks are mounted
its now 55mm higher in the rear (measured from wheel centre to top wheel arch) front will soon go on aswell, but have to do some checking around for good prices on alignment.
services like that are getting expensive, most at 200€ on up
probably
just have to get them ON the car now and do a new alignment thats the downside of it, the alignment. a fast way to say good bye to 200euroalong with stock G60 syncro springs, or possibly 40/40 lowering kit?
damn, i need everything, top bearings, spring seats, the lot
why in the ****ing hell am i driving a lowered syncro?
tried it on the snow today (it started snowing here today. so, winter is at the door
)
feels very unstable at speed on snow. probably because the rear alignment is a bit “wierd”
i should get the stock G60 syncro shocks and springs.
its a bit jumpy aswell, snow isnt very smooth to drive in, so everything rattles, and i’m jumping in my seat
looks to me like this is modified to fit a regular fwd G60 manifold in order to use the bi-cat system…
could possibly work with the syncro system, altho some of the nuts will be extremly hard to reach
well, this should be common knowledge?
or is it just me, since i live in a wintercountry?
i’m using Nokian Hakka 5
link to nokian hakka 7: (almost the same, but mine is a bit older
)
http://www.nokiantyres.com/tyre?id=12091290&group=1.01&name=Nokian+Hakkapeliitta+7golf works great, some minor details tho.
i’m still chasing the knock i’ve got on full load with full boost (0.9/1bar)
other then that, only small issues, like worn valve oilseals
as i’ve previously said, the heatshield not only works as a heatshield, but it also keeps crap from filling up the xzn bolt-heads on the joint
meaning that the passat g60 syncro also have diagnostics? since thats the same unit as in the rallye?
i’ve got one for sale with harness and ecu
