LCR handling

[rickyjones1209]

i'll be happy to buy them in the future but got other thing to pay for before may so just want to start on the handling department.

i think bushes and strut brace will be a good cheap start.

 

[Willie]

Yup there is but there are clash issues with your back box

 

[rickyjones1209]

dont want that.

ok so neuspeed it is then. that'l have to be done in summer wen i get back then.

 

[Willie]

Ricky if I were you i would fit the Neuspeed rear ARB, S3 strutt brace and the uprated DBM. go to Nurburgring then when you come back change the wishbone bushes and the front ARB.
we will have other suggestions for you aswell if you want them

 

[rickyjones1209]

neuspeed rear ARBs - £200
TT strut brace - £56
INA track DBM - £100

NURBURGRING TRIP!

r32 front ARBS - £100
rear TT wishbone bushes and standard front bushes - £60

this would be the order you'd do it in? i trust your experience and knowledge

The top bit I had done for 3 years, the bottom bit i've had done for 2 months, see my signature for my readers rides thread.
If you could push to doing it all together you will love it but i know money can be tight.
I plan a wee trip to the ring next year

 

[rickyjones1209]

money is not normally an issue and i probably would have had it done but because the car was running lean i need to get it mapped again but before i do i wanted all engine mods to be done so this month had to pay for TIP and dp decat and book hotel in germany and pay for tunnel. my map is £400 next month and i have to pay for new discs, pads and fluid next month too ha ha.

missus isnt too happy, meant to be savin for a house!

 

[Willie]

What discs and pads are you going for?

 

[D.K]

The Forge Dog bone mount works well, They are just the uprated bush's that sit in the O/E mounting bar, Thay do reduce wheel hop and make the whole car feel more solid. And they are only £20

But I thought he had a blue flame turbo back?

I have Eibach ARB's on mine, about £180 for the pair, no problems with my milltek exhaust.

 

[Nev_LCR]

the BF pipe is a bit wider, think it still hits,

 

[Willie]

Yup theres been clashes with these exhausts aswell

Where did you get them from for that price ???
The eibach's do seem better priced than the others.

 

[RickC]

solid top mounts too

Hi there, raising this old thread after reading so many posts im confused.con!
Can anyone confirm the following.

Leon cupraR front rear wishbone bushes are exactly the same as audi tt, tt roadster & s3 8l bushes?

Leon cupraR rear trailing arm or subframe ones are exactly the same as audi tt, tt roadster obviously not s3.

So i have the best oem bushes on my lcr already?

Thanks

When using 15mm-20mm spacers would it be safe to use longer wheel bolts?

Pm me mate if you want a Hughes engineering rear custom strut brace. Need 6 people to make it worth his while making a new batch have 2 already.

Thanks
