Big thanks to Benchai for sorting it out for me

My pleasure Royce. Jake and I get a lot from AZ so it's good to do something for you

[royce]

Made Dual batteries for it
sits in the passenger rear footwell, anderson plug under the seat plugs it in, has dual battery isolator in the box along with a solar regulator

Fuse panel, fridge lead, outlets all in the box, so can stay in the car or take it out and solar power it

[Scrawny]

When's the 2" lift coming?

[royce]

wonder if I can get coil spacers?

[Scrawny]

Surely your go-to man could work some magic

[royce]

Reckon I can make GV3 front brakes fit, who wants to lend me some bits to try

[missmyljdaze]

jeez, next it will be 16" beadlock rims and a set of muddies under the swift.....

[alien]

BRAPT!

NERD!!!!!!

[royce]

So I said I wouldn't mod it for a year and a year came round and I had other stuff to think about

But I modded it, well I didn't, I made Gypsy do it, but I put more camber in the front, its pretty balanced on the type of corners and roads worth driving around here now.

It seems stuff is hard to come by for them now, too many ricers bought them and neglected to add fasts, so I am at a loss as to what to do to it.

[Scrawny]

New strut tops?

[royce]

Camber pins, the strut tops are stupid, they are a rubber cone that sits into the body, then a big washer and nut stop the strut falling out.

When the wheel is off the ground it flops all over the place

[Scrawny]

Did you get much adjustment out of the pins?

[royce]

No idea, I dropped it off after chemo and picked it up before I went back to Hospital all done

[alien]

Chuck a supercharger on it or something =)

If you're really game you could try get the AWD system out of a jap/euro swift 4x4? =D

[royce]

Ive been looking, supercharger runs to 8k once you do it right, 50% more power, not sure how it would go with the compression
Cams, Intake, Exhaust, ECU, tune, 3.5k, seems like it would net 25-30%
The ECU is strange and cant be retuned easilly (though Monster sport can flash them) so it makes me a little unwanting to play with it much

Sway bars, $400 ish
Strut tops, $350
Coilovers $1300
LSD $850 (I think this would help it a lot)

It all ads up to why not just leave it alone and put the money into a better car, must be getting soft from driving a nice comfy quiet car that everything works on

[alien]

VW Golf R is amazing out of the box =)

[royce]

Lol, DSG Failure much

[Scrawny]

Playing with suspension and adding LSD would make it a really fun car to drive!

Are your eyes painted on? Hundreds of people have been SCREAMING at VW for years to issue recalls on DSG failures.

[alien]

Dont own one myself so i'm not in that circle i suppose - so never heard of it

[royce]

[Scrawny]

[royce]

Yep, so many parts, so much cheaper than here

[Scrawny]

Shot gun first ride! I won't be able to drive after I've polished off the bottle of wine for cooking tho
