What did you get in the mail or bring home for your MKVII today?

Where would you wear it then? (sick lid BTW)

I'd be wearing it to bed...

Wearing it to the track I'd be weary of not setting a lap record

Save me from myself....


This brands a little more affordable that CAE, and the big factor for me was it will still work with my custom sport shifter trim that’s in the car Cause the assembly sits about a 1” lower, also will work with my factory cables and DG sigma setup if I choose to keep that on the trans.

Hurry and install it so we can see how it looks! I couldn't find any pics of it installed in an Mk7.

Yeah, for my preference it’s going to be a step down aesthetically from the setup I have now, but it’s one of the function over form aspects.

Got these today. Now I just need the Euro Sport camber kit to be back in stock.

Motive bleeder, bottles, brake fluid and new ball joints. I really mean it when I say I want "drop in" front strut assemblies, haha.

Did you go with 100 Euro Power bleeder? What is the max PSI? The site isn't too helpful, but looking at the Erwin guides they want 30 PSI/2 Bar I believe.

I bought this one from FCP Euro... https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/european-power-bleeder-black-label-motive-products-mot0109

I did read this 30 PSI is required to properly bleed the ABS module. My understanding is you don't need 30 PSI for normal brake bleed. But allegedly this one will do it... At least according to the internets and the gauge. This was $80 and comes with what I assume is an aluminum reservoir cap. There's one for $20 less that comes with a plastic cap. Opinion seems to be going with the aluminum one is better.

Thanks for the info and good to know. I currently have the schwaben fluid extractor brake bleeder adapter, but I've been looking at ones that push the fluid rather than pull it. Aluminum cap is the way I would go. Read a few posts where people had custom brass ones made. Seems like having a helper hold some towels over the cap while using it is best. That way if it does let loose and pop, it isn't a huge mess.
