I agree with dustin. You need a clean Grill and maybe a clean Frontbumper

No, not a clean Grill please.
But i think, a Black Emblem would Look better ;)

The rims are very nice :D

looks really very cool ... as they say here fits like ass on the bucket^^

Yes Mate, you're right. With S2 the car raise....now i'll drop for another 1 cm. :danke:

Yes Poisen, but it's very hard to find the phase 1 with emblem. The debadged phase one is an home made grill.....impossible to find. :angel:

Yes Mate, at See and your treffen i'll be present! :danke:

For the grill is the same answer to Poisen. I add just that i love the phase 1 mit emblem. And the clean bumper is not for my GTI (in my opinion), i like the oem bumber with my plate "Hybrid02". So, thank you for your opinion. :danke:

Thaks....but I love the contrast black and white with logo ;)

:danke::danke::cool2:

Eehhhehehehh....no :D:D, it's paintedby my friends that paint Harley and Custom helmet...

Its not your Plate that i mean. The plate is cool. I guess to clean the turn signals and the fogheadlights.

You should take an clean US Bumper, that looks very nice!

Yesterday (finally) i solved the big trouble to rear axle.

Before 150 km testing, i check a dangerous feeling with car. Impossible to drive. At the rear is like a flag.

- camber -4.10
- toe +0,51

Excessive and too dangerous, it's time to solve with other shims. Founded by a guy that found the right data on vwVortex.

The new and right shims

http://www.golf3.de/images/imported/2013/02/196.jpgu

Each rear Hub is fitted with 3 shims: 1 thick (/// or 3 mmm) and 2 more thin (// or 2 mm)

In the photo below, the right positioning on rear hub ( in the shot: the rear left hub front wieving. In the pic is showed with drums, but it's the same with disc)

http://www.golf3.de/images/imported/2013/02/197.jpg

Finally defitted my wrong shims (fitted only in the 2 bolts under hub)

http://www.golf3.de/images/imported/2013/02/198.jpg

3 hours for all 2 hubs :D

http://www.golf3.de/images/imported/2013/02/199.jpg

Rear hub in perfect condition also the wrong camber use.

http://www.golf3.de/images/imported/2013/02/200.jpg

And finally it's all ok!

http://www.golf3.de/images/imported/2013/02/201.jpg

http://www.golf3.de/images/imported/2013/02/202.jpg

Result:

-3 camber
+ 0,09 toe ( the same wolburg data)

Golf is perfect the feeling is optimal, and the rear is perfect. I'm very happy! :D

Nice to hear that you fixed the problem with the toe angle. Looks pretty good now.

Danke Chiller! Before to set the corret angle, the rear wheels seemed broken. Now is a good looking also right feeling and riding. :danke:

Sorry für OT aber........Kann mir das mal bitte jemand übersetzen (detailiert) gerne auch per PN. Mein Englisch ist zwar ok aber das war mir grad zu viel.

Die Vorspur war durch das falsche Unterlegen unter den Achszapfen recht groß und das Auto hat sich sehr schlecht fahren lassen. Wenn man die Scheibendicke ändert und nur drei Scheiben verbaut korrigiert man die Vorspur bei gleichbleibenden Sturz.

Sorry Mates...didn't understand deutsch language. ::frage::

Its only a translation of the text you had writen for Matthias :cool:

This was a question of me. I didn't anderstand the Details about the Camberplates and want a translation from an other User. Sorry for off topic.

No problem Mathias! :cool2: In the future I'll Try to mix english with deutsch to improve the description. ;):cool2:

And now the last setting work.

The front (worne) setting to find my way to low

With Mercedes Felgen, no problem with space from Fege to gewinde, but with Artec i Didn't have the safe clearence, and i can't low anymore.

IHMO i have only 2 way.
- Fitting higher wheel spacer (from 22 to 30 spurveirbreiturung)
- Settng a new camber

Yesterday i start to work with camber

http://www.golf3.de/images/imported/2013/02/237.jpg

With laser precison tools to measure angle, I stated my work.


Before to change, i check my standing camber: -1,3 degree with neutral upper camber plate.
I changed the camber wheel from -1,3 to +0,15

http://www.golf3.de/images/imported/2013/02/238.jpg

Now the standing of the wheels.....too much outside for me

http://www.golf3.de/images/imported/2013/02/239.jpg

I full close the camber plates

http://www.golf3.de/images/imported/2013/02/240.jpg

The finalstanding is great:

- Total camber -1,20
- The wheels is now corret positoned
- I have the right clearence to work safe with coilover, and i have the space to low the front axle.

http://www.golf3.de/images/imported/2013/02/241.jpg

Finally i lowered 1,8 cm anymore :D:D:D

http://www.golf3.de/images/imported/2013/02/242.jpg


I check my data in Tyre center (all good and perfect...now i can make myself camber/toe adjust)

Handling and feeling are perfect and no scratch. I'm very happy! :D

your car looks amazing!
it is like WOAH!:eek:
