You have a point there .. Had 350x32mm zimmermann discs but never tried them .. But acutually when down to a 345x30 disc instead because they were grooved instead

I have found drilled and grooved 350x32mm with the correct size bell so they shouldnt hit the car. I hope!

New discs on and brakes all sorted! Thank god, what a nightmare!!

RARB and polybush tomorrow night, new tyres going on friday will post pics of the tyres when im not on my phone nearly ready for gti international!

So the brakes are finally all sorted so tonight I fitted my RARB:




Last couple of bits to go on tomorrow and shes ready for GTI International. Was hoping to get a bit more done but I just dont have the time!

I have owned the car 2 months today Not bad progress in my eyes ha.

Insane progress for 2 months haha. Look forward to seeing this on sat

Well my passenger light keeps getting condensation in it, and it was so wet it broke my ballast. Just had to replace it! I cannot work out why its doing it, so maybe il just buy the new ones haha

Didn't think they made R888s anymore! I need some grippier tyres, I'm only stage 1 with intake and cat back and my car spins like a bitch in the wet. R888s will be nearly suicidal in the rain surely?

Of course they make them There the best "track" road legal tyre on the market

I had them in the wet before and its not fun but lucky the weather is nice. New wheels coming so they will have more road friendly tyres and these will be for spirited driving

Glad youve got the brakes problem sorted finally! ive bought myself a revo torque mount insert but honestly im not sure where it goes -.- *slaps self* any chance you could post a picture or describe where it actually goes please dude? You seem to have the scirocco down to a T! Cheers

I will do when I fit it bud, not even had time to do mine yet But I will get plenty of pictures when I do. I used to spend my days tuning VXR's, scirocco is just another car And actually far easier to work on then the vauxhalls.

All set for GTI international. (PLEASE DONT RAIN!!!)

Time for some food! Long ass day.

Car is looking good mate !!

See you at beaconsfield tomorrow bud

Impressive progress, the ride is awesome

It is awesome here are some new DIYs for the car;
1) Door warning lights (led)
2) euro cup holder (sliding) + cup holder for rear passengers
3) metal oem footrest
4) 12mm spacers

So as the car is basically where i wanted it looks wise, its on to performance and handling.

The car is running a healthy stage 2 at 274bhp and 367 torque. The handling was not all that great, so I ordered a VW Racing RARB and fitted that, along with bigger brakes (brembos) and decent tyres. The car has transformed just from those few mods! It is starting to corner exactly how I wanted it to. So I wanted to improve it further and have ordered the following parts:

VW Racing Front anti roll bar:



Powerflex Front anti lift kit:



VW Racing engine mounts:







This should be it for handling mods, eventually maybe some coilovers but I want something decent and looking over £1500!

I have also ordered an airtec stage 2 intercooler:



And I have my DS2500 pads finally!

Fingers crossed all these bits come before the weekend so I can get them fitted!

After that its on to power... I already know what I am doing power wise and believe it will be the first Scirocco TSI running this sort of power Maybe even the first Scirocco full stop but I have no idea what power people are running in sciroccos, cant really find much on youtube/google!

This time next year I will certainly be spending my time at GTI Internatonal on the strip!

Im looking at getting either airtec stage 2 intercooler or forge intercooler myself. Oh and i fitted that revo torque mount insert today will put a post on my thread later some nice mods on your list there dude!

how do you find the torque mount?

I prefer Airtec over Forge but personal choice
