Builder Stance!
Looks class man.
Expensive mod though, fifty bags of gravel.

What on earth are you doing with all that aggregate man?
laying a drive for a stately home?

That's where the original low rider look came from - 4 big Mexicans and a few bags of gravel in the trunk

Got Mexicanz?

lol warped discs, Nicely done. The gearbox and shafts are the same for 1.4/1.7, only the diff is different.

Post by **volvodspec** » 16 Oct 2010 05:51 pm

discs are standard golf G60, you do need to redrill them to allow fitment on the 300's hub; and you do want to give this a lot of attention as wrong drilled holes can result in disc failure or a wheel that is very out of balance...

yeah racing a crx v-tec these about a 15 mile bit of road with loads of roundabouts on lol
ok ill probley take the old ones off and take them and the new ones to a machine shop

Post by **340GLT** » 16 Oct 2010 11:35 pm

1.4 diff in it mate. Shafts box and diff all standard to the car so are indicated mileage as per speedo.
Disks are golf G60 they need boring and redrilling to fit the 340.
Glad your enjoying the car. She does go well.
