  5. Im 19 now but actually owned a glanza at 18 as my first car... mistake it scared me to death I thought I was ready.. not the case, the lupo gti I had after was tame in comparison but that short wheel base can really bite you in the wet I had a few close encounters and ive got track experience, but its up to you that quote is pretty damn good so go for it and if you kill yourself then it was the wrong choice I currently own a mk1 mx5 and it really proves you dont need the power
  6. Saw a silver lupo gti going from Burscough to Bickerstaffe, I gave you a beep in my 52 reg black gti ?

  8. +1 on venom motorsport, the cheapest around and brill customer service I normally pop in to pick my stuff up
  9. thanks for the reply, the std Bathurst's with 195/45/15 on the front and 205/45/15 on the rear
  10. Thanks for the reply, I thought the factory camber was -1, -1.4 isn't really that much camber tbh
  11. Cheers for the help man really appreciate it, the snow probably was, they were new jom coilovers the top mounts bushings could of gone?
  12. Yeah had the front drivers side replace just under 1k ago, also tourqued up all the front strut bolts to spec before the tracking was done...
  13. Really haven't got a clue what's causing the issues
  14. True and I swapped the front tireseats to the back to see if they were worn differently but that dint change anything, and I didn't hit anything ?
  15. Yeah I thought the same think with the pas, originally it was fine with coilovers it's since driving/sliding on ice and snow it's been playing up
  16. Hi... hey... boo what ever intro floats ur boat Recently took my gti for alignment on a hunter system after fitting coilovers because I was experienceing light, twitchy steering and it would wonder at motorway speeds and not self center. Long story short the alignment has been done now running -1.4 degrees camber and +2.4 degrees caster with 0 toe but I'm still experiencing the same problem almost like the cars floating, could it been the power steering? Any help is appreciated
  17. yeah I will be looking to upgrade to ap's in the future, did the car need anything else to get the joms aligned?
  18. cheers for the reply man, they are what they are... cheap lows. I thought they had a bit of adjustment as they have ellipse holes but suppose there no help if they give u extra negative camber, did you have to change the caster ect...?
  19. Hi fellow lupo owners, If you can get past my introduction then I have a question, after lowering my gti on jom coilovers it seems to just be wandering at speed and not self centering correctly, I know this is normally a caster issue, can this be put right or do I need new bushings to correct for this? Or would a shed load of negative camber cause the same issue? Thanks
  20. spotted a black lupo gti in northwich, looked std but on lowering springs, anyones on here?
  21. could of been me man, can you remember the reg?
  22. I hate to be that guy but would you sell the wheels? would love a pair for my gti?
