I need t roll mine but can not find a spot up here in nor-cal.

 

hey thinking of gettign that powerslot kit next year when my stock brakes are near their lifes end......how was the install,bolt and go with the spacer or was there issues and modifacations........I dont mind modding stuff till it comes to safty stuff like brakes.

 

^^ Install wasn't too bad, bolts and everything fit properly, it comes with a bracket for the caliper. The only thing that Powerslot failed at is the brake pad sits a little higher then the rotor, so about 1/2 mm of pad won't touch the rotor. Also, you're going to need to bend the dust shield back a little bit so it doesn't touch the back of the rotor. Other then that, I'm really happy with the rotors. You probably won't see a big performance difference, but it sure does look good =]

 

Wes and I installed the brake kit Tuesday night. piece of cake except for the caliper bolts.

i just cant get over how low this car is. There are plently of slammed tC's around, but to be this slammed on such aggressive wheels is crazy. When he drove over (at a snails pace) a speed bump in my neighborhood I heard his s-pipe, then the sideskirts, and finally the rear apron scrape. My car has 1 finger gap, while Wes is at least negative 1 finger. Mad props.

btw what time of day was this photo taken? the lighting has me confused.

after seeing how low you are, I'd seriously watch out for slightly raised manholes. the s-pipe will gaurd the oil pan against raised surfaces going the width of the entire car, but manholes dont. its common for super low vw's to bust their pans.

 

Love the new wheels man. Great pictures too!!!

 

the pics were taken after you and wes installed the rotors, so.. i think around 10. and i got kinda lazy to play with the white balance because it was so cold outside (socal cold means < 70) and it was on 20/25 sec exposures.

 

HAHHAHAH please. If you think that's cold, I dare you to spend 1 weekend in NorCal in Nov/Dec/Jan.

 

you're on. i'll just stay indoors, crank up the heater, and hibernate

 

Cheater. lol Back in high school, my friends used to show up in flip-flops, shorts, and t-shirts in 42 degree morning weather.

 

come to Mass

 

haha, thanks for all the help Won!

Yea, I've always thought about damaging the oil pan, but I figure if Ben (blktC) can roll as low as he does w/o damaging his oil pan, then I should be fine. I didn't even know I hit the S-pipe, I thought it was just the side skirts, lol. I don't think the oil pan hangs as low on tCs as it does on VWs. BMW E30s have had similar issues cracking oil pans due to their ride height. But I'll keep an eye out on the road just in case.

 

man, ive been wantin some mesh style wheels for a while now. no moneys ftl. nice lookin ride though. very clean and simple. i want ur grills. think ima get rid of these FIGs and get me some VRDs. what are yours?

 

damn, the car looks so good!!!!

 

lol wes! i told you going lower is win! :D

and dude, i do scrape oil pan... you never asked me if i damaged it in any way.. i scraped once, and i swear, it was that BIGGEST SPEED BUMP in my life!!! like 3-4 inches tall and 1.5 feet wide.. but that was the only time..

 

im so proud of you...lol im so glad finally ppl are moving away from the ricey crap and upgrading to G status... there is a god and he heard my prayers!

 

FlintC: Yea, they are VRD Grills

Dodaddy: Thanks bro! I love your FM too =]

Ben: Lol, I assumed since you never really mentioned damaging it, that it was aright, lol. I know your S-pipe is all ____ed up, but if you only scraped the oil pan once, it can't be THAT bad, and a 4" speedbump is an epic fail.

Pete: You were my inspiration, and now I see the white light...lol, I've crossed over, and I'm never looking back! =D

 

sig worthy material is sig worthy! ^^^

 

its cuz he joined supastar.. he gotta go BUCK WILD! lmao

I WANT NEW WHEELS!!!

 

So I went out w/ my photographer last night to do a new shoot, and this is what we came up with, I hope you enjoy!:
