Wow it only ~$60 for the gasket and diaphragm. That's has been added to the to-do list

Well. The Golf is done and running great. The Harley is done as well, so I might as well finish the Willys.
Stage 1 is great. Not as much fun to drive wihout the IM but the gas mileage has been great which is nice as gas is almost $5 a gallon right now where I live. I have mainly been riding the Harley though while the weather is nice.
I only drive the Golf now and then when my Son isn't using it, been driving our new Honda Accord mostly, ya i know it's turbo but it's a car for grown ups and that turbo engine from the factory puts out more power and comparable to a Stage1 GTI and gets better gas mileage on every turn of the wheel than any TSI can. Just added a rear sway bar, we won't tune the engine coz it's leased but waiting for one of those dongle things to plug onto the ECU and sensors.

I replaced my endlinks in the rear and have to replace springs soon too. Wonder if it's just a think that happens. From Ontario here. And sitting roughly 250k km with all original shit lol

That's not bad at all man lol. I'd say your springs served you well.

Though 130k seems quite low to replace them, definitely the shitty pothole roads of Quebec lol

New rims and tires today, picked them up second hand. Winter tires are some cheap Chinese ones but they'll do their job. Gonna do my rear brakes today! After lifting I'm going to get some 215/65r16 tires on there.

Just thought I'd post some photos of my rust bucket as I do my brakes. I think I need a new anti swaybar.

Why are you going with 65 series tires? Curious. On my 16's i use 205/55

Because I want bigger looking tires when I lift my golf with the Tiguan springs

Im getting some lightly used Tiguan springs on Saturday for $150. Anyone know where I can get them installed that won't break the bank?

This coupled with the short shifter is a match made in heaven. I wish I knew these existed eons ago. Completely different shifting experience. And a 10 minute install.
