Yeah i havent taken the helpers out either!

 

Front is 4 Threads left on the bottoms

 

Rear is 4 Threads left on the bottoms

 

You did change over the rubber spring seats on the new ones right? 

 

yeah changed over the spring seats, that arch gaps about where mine was when it was half way, also i have 18s didnt change too much when wound all the way up but no more rubbing

Im going to raise mine another 4 threads on the rear and drop it 2 on the front.

 

Your car is awesome!

i see that mate, very interested but... im going visual route at the moment and diff should be soon just need to repair my old gearbox for it will start stripping the box down later this week ready for it then next year im thinking about another engine to build up and have some fun with sods law we threw one in the scrap about 6 months ago now :(

Octy's sit weird because the rear arch is actually lower than the front, so you have to give them some front end rake to even everything out.

 

I wants the K300 bad!

Headed over to prept tonight had a good night had some great feedback on the car! Just need to sort the rough running when boosting and first thing starts, new TIP on the way, another flap motor fitted, i think the 2 problems are 2 different causes, cold start problem there is a technical bulletin for it from skoda so am slowly working through the list of causes and the pulsating boost i think it just the TIP so am looking forward to sorting it all out bow the love is back for the car

your probably end up buying my setup

 

balls forgot about prept could of gone in my new aswell
