red r32 with team dynamics, Ferrari f40 brakes and recaro pole positions

[chrishalfpenny]

im looking for a r32 number plate so if anybody knows someone with a good one then let me know

Car looks great, nice colour too! 

There's a mk4 R32 around Southampton with the number plate R32 HOT, does make the car stand out more.

Good luck finding the right plate. 

 havent seen it but thats the sort of thing im looking for

love the rims! where did you source them from? spec?
set the car off beautifully

Cheers mate there 18x8.5 et38 I think from memory. I brought them for regal autosports  who had them custom made to fit there mk5 demo car perfectly at great expense from ccw in USA. They had them on the car for a month or two then took them off and sold them to me at a much reduced priced ;)

In truth I'm not a fan of the wheels - Too reflective shiny for my taste - But it would be dull if we all liked the same. As said before, I love the R32 in red.

....Now THAT is a very cool (or hot) plate.

Such plates give a car individual identity - I hate gooblygook plates, they're just bureaucratic govn'ment license numbers.

Just going on from that, we have a Red R32 in at the min with the reg R32 RED! looks awesome on the car....

Loving the corsairs tho, they really set the car off a treat!

These wheels are only for the summer which is almost over so I have a set of team dynamics 1.2 for winter use. And please tell you customer I want that plate I tried buying it about 3 weeks ago off of a number plate website but he had just put it on a new car he had brought, please ask him if he wants to sell it yet :)

[jabbalad]

Haha yea he had some work done to his last mk5 R32 (in red) sold it, then decided he shouldnt of done... he then had to buy another red one to go with his number plate so hes having all the same stuff done again 


I kept looking into the corsairs you bought but couldnt get the money together at the time, so if you decided to sell them at any point after next month let me know 


Seriously tho, buy Hurdys KW topmounts if there still there and you will be onto a winner as the top of the front wheel will tuck in a bit more then, those wheels were specked run with adjustable topmounts if i remember correctly

The 'R32 RED' plate is very special. A tribute to the car rather an owner's ego.

[chrishalfpenny]

Yeah I've been saying this to my mate that the front and rear need a smidgen of camber, I can get them to stop rubing next thing is arch rolling and maybe a slight pull, I was under the impression that kw v3 don't work with the adjustable top mounts?

it does if you get costum made spring "dishes" made.

I'm in the process of getting several sets made

They will fit, but you will need the Clubsport or Eibach springs....  70-170 60mm id springs  (70 NM - 170mm extended length) 
With these you wount have to fart about with making special top caps!

It completely changes how the car handles and is probably the next BIG step after the coilovers if you ask me.... plus you wouldnt need to do any arch work then

What sort of money are the race springs?

[Sie]

Car looks great, can i ask where you have ordered your unibrace from and how much you paid?? thanks

[chrishalfpenny]

I brought it second hand off the r32 forum and I paid around £200 I think. Go on r32oc I think there's another group buy happening

[chrishalfpenny]

little update: brought hurdy top mounts so they should be with me in the next week just need to sort out the springs now and i should be on to a winner
