Hello people, i'm new on the forum and just wanted to introduce myself and the motor! So here it be :
(taken not so long ago)
The one below was taken about 20 minutes ago, after i'd just lowered the car more on it's coilovers, but i've had a problem with the one of the front wheels rubbing and making a horrible noice on the wishbone when on full lock, does anyone know how to get round this?

My mates polo makes that kinda noise when on full lock, he said somthing about the the tracking was out by half a turn? if that makes sense but not sure could be something else?

hay im the guy mk4 bandit was on about, u have the exact same car as me, pacific blue coilies and borbet t's! yeah wen i go full lock left i rub on my wishbone aswell, i took it to my uncle and he said i have half a turn more to the left than right but jst getting 5mm spacers might be enough to do the trick. i have them so ill let u know wen i get the longer bolts to fit them if it solves it or not.

needs spacers on the front, probably only 5mm to stop it rubbin on the coilover! quite a common problem!
