Ehehe! They really increase the steering wheel grip although reduce a bit the feeling from the wheels on the track. It's just because of race car wannabe. :signLOL:

Get yours ready and go have some fun on the track where you can really safely push it. :wink:

Does it rub on the arches when you turn in hard @Shoduchi ?

Not any more. I had to remove the top wing arch liner screw. :wink:

Mine rubs on my gti but I'm fairly low on kw v1 coilovers and s3 alloy hubs and 18"x8" et42 Speedline wheels
 do the H&R anti roll bars help with keeping the car flat round corners ? The only thing I haven't replaced  :signLOL:

My wheels are 18''x8'' ET45, so they're 3 mm inner the wheel arch compared to yours. You can set your ride height just a bit higher. Any stronger ARB will make your GTI corner flatter. You might try the H&R 28/24 mm ARB kit. :smiley:

Lovely car this, looks so good out on the track.

Is that a Nova (GTE/GSI?) side by side with you on the straight in the 11th photo?

Yes, the black one it's an Opel Corsa (Vauxhall Nova in the UK) with an engine swap from a Vectra 2.0 16V 136 CV. With semi-slick tyres and its lightweight can do the same lap time as mine. I just beat him in the straights at the moment.

There was a grey one as well but I don't know its specs.
