New exhaust from TT w/ Magnaflow

H&R touring cup with suspension refresher

New Corrado steelies

And some new shoes

And of course, Scrappy, das Wiener Würstchen, will oversee the whole project.

Nice parts, what car is this going on?
How old is your dog and whats up with his leg? You beat you dog man?:what:

Krunkenstein · Mar 22, 2011

Thanks! It's all going in a 92 Jetta. I'll take some before and after pics and post them in this thread.

As for my dog, no I don't beat him! He had spinal surgery a few months ago and can't use his back legs. He drags them when he scoots around, so i have to bandage his feet or else they get sore.

Will he ever walk again? You should make him a mini wheel chair..

you're gonna love the touring cup kit!
just installed mine last month...
no center caps or lug covers for the steelies?!
how much did you pay for the steelies?

There is a decent chance he may walk again, but the nerves take forever to heal. After about five months, he is definitely making progress. And a wheel chair is in the works, found a guy who custom welds them based on over a dozen measurements. Good stuff!

Yes! Krunkenstein will be the beneficiary.

AudiOphiLiA · Mar 24, 2011

did you ever consider any alternate tire sizes?
I was thinking 195/55 or 205/50?
anyone wanna chime in on their opinions?
oh yeah, and don't trip out over the slight reverse rake or uneven ride height after install... it should even out and settle in a couple of weeks...
did you get a camber bolt kit?

Krunkenstein · Mar 24, 2011

Is 205/50 stock for VW 15" wheels? I picked 195/50 because of overwhelming consensus that this would keep my speedometer accurate when going from 14" to 15" wheels.

I did not get camber bolts. Should I? Didn't think a mild drop would warrant it, but I've never messed with suspension before.

how much was shipping for those steelies? Ive been looking for those forever. I dint think you could get em new anymore.

also, did they come with the center caps??

Shipping was about $80 for me

And I had to buy the caps/lug covers separately. I believe I got those at 1stVWparts

It's gonna be a fun weekend!
