nowt wrong with a later model

I've got a MOMO wheel on mine and was close to the stalks, but fortunately MOMO sell a 15mm spacer which is just right. i have a 13" mountney wheel on a boss designed for a beetle. they seem to be the most common option and are not expensive. my wheel is a little close to the indicator stalk but i d...

mine is one of those universal pod thingies, think halfords even sell them. I fitted a piece of MDF between the bottom lip of the dash down to the bulkhead if you like just above the kick plates. the pod was then fitted to this. mind you, all my air box gubbins is removed so may not work the same on...

fantastic pressie andy, beats socks and choccies.

my birthday is the 2nd aug too, had my 4-0 two years ago though

my Fasty's got a type in it, need any help let me know

save it, didn't you know late type 3 fastbacks are the next 'big' thing in the VW scene!?

(If I spread the word enough THEY SHOULD BE !! )

a baja type 3 fastback shouldn't work but it does !


.......where's my grinder ........

mine must be late mk1 GTI calipers as they were for vented (slotted) discs.

Kerscher discs were 20mm like GTI ones.

my GTI pads are the large crescent shaped ones.

very minor clearancing was required to the carriers to clear the vented discs.

i've got a late model fasty with the larger spaced caliper bolts.

running kersher (CSP) vented front discs (20mm thick) with Golf GTI Mk1 calipers that pretty much bolts straight on.

be interesting to see your setup

Angelo

a bit limited in standard 4 stud fitment, most people (inc. me) go for re-drilled hubs and fit ones from other vehicles.

I'd go with play in the top trailing arms. easy to adjust, just don't overdo it.

just looked on haynes, to confirm is 31.

you would of known if it was fitted to the wrong notch, as the razor ghia is low slung the anlgle of the steering column is lower.

yes there is some degree of out of alignment hence the coupling.

WELL DONE !

31 for fast/sq/notch

34 for razor ghia

chemical metal is another good filler type.

welcome to forum.

there are good type 4 specialists in the UK, the 2 I would reccomend you talk to is:-

LA Performance

I'm running a type 4 in a fastback but is just 2 litre displacement

Angelo

like the late notch's new coat danny !

like it better than the 'other' style ! LOL
