Scirocco Central

Hi Guys, been lurking here a while, thought I best put up a bit of a thread on my car!

Sold my Mk4 Golf about 3 years ago now, which looked like this...



Bought the scirocco in Feb 2015, stayed standard for a little while, then the work really started at christmas...

Tried some RS4 wheels


Private plate (I run a company called PWRD - Peter Walters Race Design)


Bought some more wheels, 19x9 Rotiform BLQ's.... still sat in the workshop










Boot build, still needs painting


Controller


Metal pedals and upgraded gear knob and handbrake lever



Another set of wheels...19x10 rear, 19x8.5 fronts, Rotiform IND


New center caps and bolts all round


Gave her a clean...



Rear R lights fitted and a few latest pics!














And thats where we are now! I have some mega plans for it and a few parts collecting up ready for a big makeover. Helps that my dad runs a body shop/custom paint shop, so look out for some drastic changes!

Looking forward seeing the progress on this one
Wanted to ask:
- what is the color code on the mk4 Golf?
- in the side pick of the Scirocco (right after saying "gave it a clean"), that is the highest setting of the bags? Is there any limitation of speed when using the car at this height? (was considering this for when going in big snow).

Cheers

Is the rear aired out on the pics on bottom? Looks really high.. Also i'd spacer out fronts. Red center caps looks good.

Nimbus Grey from the Mk1 TT special edition

Pretty much the top height yeah, I haven't used it at that height before, but can't see why it would be a problem!

I am running standard shocks/non-cut brackets at the moment. Have some Konis to go on, so should drop it down

That explains it. Looking forward.

Is yours notched and shorter rear shocks?

Yes. I have airlift performance rear struts and cut brackets

Just purchased a pair of Brembo 18z calipers, ready for my BBK conversion!

Looks good so far mate!
Do these need a chassis notch when they're bagged?

Thanks

Definitely, mine sits quite a bit higher on the drivers side!

Ok cheers bud, hopefully picking up an airlift kit in the next couple of weeks and wasn't sure to get notched when it's fitted

To be fair its still low without, but to get it even on both sides you need a notch ideally. Also i'd recommend the shorter rear shocks and cut brackets.

Ok cheers mate. it's got the adjustable airlift rear shocks with it what is the bracket that needs cutting?

More parts collecting...

Genuine Scirocco R bumper and exhaust and one of my favourite buys so far, Porsche Cayenne Brembo 18z calipers, Absolute beasts! Will go through a full refurb once the car gets painted etc. Can't wait.

It's all coming together!

Saw you up at m25 round about today mate:)

R32 rear diffuser sorted for my R rear. Just need to get an exhaust now, not sure wether to go custom or use the off the shelve one.

Started my T5 grill...

Few chassis mods and she sits perfectly now

What a difference, looks great
