Find a donor car and rob all the stub axels and hubs and everything. Of course you could and probably should just sit tight and wait until you swap cars. Just deck it on the steels. Look awesome. |

Gti/VTR/VTS Rallye rear beam, front hubs off one of the afore mentioned cars, ARB off them as well and drop links, wishbones, basically anything attached to the hub/suspension, buy a fubared GTi etc and take all the parts you need, would be cheaper IMO, then sell the rest.

ok, changing tack slightly, anyone know where i can get performance tires in the stupidly small size that comes standard? and meilack, dont worry, they will be gloss white if i do this: the main reason is the tire size, thats why i want 4 stud, for better choice of wheel sizes. alternatively, anybody know if compomotive do 3 studs?  im useless with a spanner, and it does sound quite techy.

Im sure the supersprint is a Decat system as well, so i doubt it would pass, unless you know a friendly one, but tbh its a 10min job at the most to swap a system on a 106. Any TU petrol engined exhaust will fit, just the manifolds thats different. You can get 3 stud compo's, you must be searching with your eyes closed, there all that use to be for sale when i was looking for some Mo's for mine! Try 106owners.http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/3-stud-Compomotiv ... 7C294%3A50 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/white-compomotive ... 7C294%3A50 |
