    What brand jeans do you wear?

    At home and on weekends for casual wear, I only wear Tommy Bahama jeans. For work, I just wear basic 10 dollar junk from Wal-Mart. I deal with resin, and gel-coat, and fiberglass so I don't wear anything nice to work, lol.

    What did you do to your mk7 today?

    Kelzzrocka; You just brought back so many memories. Thanks for that. I had the "Kick a little asphalt" logo airbrushed on all of my Rabbit GTi race cars, and my Rabbit rally car back in the late 80's.

    FK High Tec Springs

    Has anyone lowered their Mk. 7 with the FK High Tec springs as of yet? I just received mine, and will be installing them along with my TT/RS front brake set-up. Will be a month or so before I get them on, so was hoping to see some others pics/reviews in the mean time. My GTi is a daily driver...

    TTS / TTRS rear brakes to Mk. 7 platform?

    As I prepare to do the front TTRS install, I still have not been able to find a set of PP/R rear brakes to install at the same time. Because of this it got me thinking of other Non-BBK options for the rear. I am wondering since the architecture of the MQB Mk. 7 leads to direct bolt-on of the...

    Switching front brakes to rear, when installing BBK???

    I was wondering if anyone has seen or heard of an available conversion kit to install our fronts to the rear axle, when installing a BBK? I have been waiting to install my TTRS brakes until I also have the rears figured out as well. It only makes sense that someone would engineer, and make...

    Though I share what I got after selling the mk7 R...

    I just couldn't buy Anything with a Chevy badge on it. I loved the G8, and I'm still searching for one but only if I can find the G8 GXP in a color I like in mint condition. Looks much better badged with Holden badges, but still just doesn't do it for me visually. As you stated, the interior is...

    What hobbies do you have

    My biggest hobby is Airsoft. Played paintball for years, including the Toronto X-games, and 4 straight years at the World Cup. But sadly, I got too old, too heavy, and it kept getting more and more expensive. When I found Airsoft, I realized the weapons were more realistic, more accurate, and...

    PP rear brake upgrade with BBK install???

    I purchased, and am installing the Audi TTRS brake kit to my 2015 GTi S. I would like to know if anyone has seen an upgrade for the rear brakes to the "PP" brake option? I believe one of the vendors had a kit to upgrade a Non-PP car to PP brakes, but it was for all four corners. Thanks, ahead of...

    What movie car would you have???

    I have to agree with the above post for a truck. For a car, I'd go with theAston Martin DBS from Casino Royale. For a bike, the Ducati superbike from the first Expendables, along with Charisma Carpenter on the back.
