it's been a while since i spent money on either of my cars for anything other than maintenance...
cash has been tight lately, as i work at a dot-com, but i just took on a 2nd contract in san francisco for extra spending money- so i just bought a set of corrado g60 wheels w/ nitto tires off ebay for $150 plus shipping. works out well, because i needed bigger wheels to fit over the 10" calipers i have waiting to go on my 16v. speaking of which- i know i need front control arms from an A3 to use the 10" brakes; anything else i need to buy, or should while i'm in there? mileage on this car is approaching 200k, so i'm sure the bushings are getting a little tired; i could buy a set of used arms and some aftermarket bushings, or i could go with a bearing kit installed in new arms from SRS for $385 and not have to worry about it again for a *while*. (see http://www.srsvw.com/page1.htm ) yes, i know these will be on the rough side. no, this car is not my daily driver. suspension has already been upgraded on the car; tokico blue shocks and eibach sportline springs- wouldn't have been my choice but i have no complaints about the way they work, so they're staying until someone wants to buy coilovers for me =) so yeah- thoughts are welcome, sorry for the rambling email, been a long day. --- white.rabbit _when i am king you will be first against the wall_ 1997 vw gti vr6 1987 vw gti 2.0-16v --- _____________ List Sponsor: http://www.netsville.com To remove yourself from this list, send mail to [email protected] with 'unsubscribe a2_16v' in the body of your message See us on the web at http://www.a2-16v.com Visit the 16V Homepage at http://www.gti16v.org
