Sometimes I wonder.

Do people research things in depth and/or take physics into account?

Your air tanks are dangerous. Flat plate tank ends are not safe, at all. You will not find a flat plate tank in production because it wouldn't fly for the DOT. I realize you or someone else probably made them and they are "custom" but some shit just isn't worth being the cool guy. Proper air tanks are a must.

It can't go any lower in the front..

What struts are you using up front?

[Tekje]

It's a GAS airride system, alot of people drive with these tanks, they are one of the biggest they have.
it's good quality aswell.

[Tekje]

What struts are you using up front?

No idea, but it's because the chassis hits the cardan.
It's not because the air can't get any lower. The only solution I know is notching it, but I won't do that because in Belgium it's illegal and the cops love these things over here. Also for safety reasons I will not notch it.

amazing Bora man prachtig.!

Nicely clean great interior and perfect wheels for the car.. Really nice job man!

How is the airride versus coils ? any regrets ?
And how mutch did it cost you if you don`t mind me asking...?

Thinking about baggiin my A4B6...

[Tekje]

Thanks alot!
Well the airride is more comfortable but it is also alot more 'jumpy'.. I bought the airride because I have to drive far distances, so not for going that 1cm lower.

I loved driving on coils more than I do on airride, but I broke my oil pan 2 times already, so it became time for airride.

I'll send you the price in PM

its illegal to notch the frame? i would love to see them try and look underneath it all air'd out. lol i want you to notch it so bad..

[Tekje]

Yes me to, but they are not fond of airride in my country..and also if you notch it they will give you a red card and you have to fix it..also in the region where I live the police station hunts cars like mine like we are criminals.. (I'm really not exaggerating)

So I think notching won't work for me..airride is illegal but not as a big problem as notching, when they see my airride, I will have to get it from under my car en go to the examination center.

[Alex@BagRiders]

If you're ever interested in going lower in the front, you should look at the Air Lift Slam Series struts. I have them on my Mk4 R32 and they allow me to lay subframe on 18's (I'm notched) but they aren't 'jumpy' by any means.

Very clean! That engine has a lot of potensial for tuning too
