I just bought two second-hand pairs of struts, one pair each for the bonnet and boot, from SSS Automotive in Girraween (NSW). Hopefully they’re still in decent enough condition.

I wish mine was a Golf R Wagon - they announced it as an official addition to the range about 6 months after I'd bought mine... Mine is an R-Line (an option pack you can get on the Highline-spec Golfs), so it's got a lot of the Golf R and GTI features (15mm lower suspension, Dynamic steering, R steering wheel with paddle shifters for the DSG, black headlining, black/grey interior, different front bumper, rear spoiler with winglets reaching down the side of the rear windscreen, 18" wheels with Bridgestone Potenza S001 tyres, etc.), but it's only a 1.4l turbo with FWD. Still, it does alright for what it is - has heaps of low-end torque and uses barely any fuel, especially compared to the Stagea. I think I'm averaging about 780km per tank - tank holds 50l, fuel light comes on at around 45l.

Gotta agree, sounds really good!

Many thanks to Sammi-d and the other Execs for putting on another fun - and relaxed - meet.
-
I'm keen, will have to see how I feel later - been a bit up and down with my health the past few days.

Spotted today, a silver s2 C34 with the plates "98STAG" - not sure if it's the same car I often see (and make note of here) on Wentworth Avenue in Pendle Hill, but it was in roughly the same spot and most likely the same owner.
-
Forgot to mention that on Wednesday afternoon (1st of March) I saw a wine red M35 AR-X on Third Avenue in Blacktown, heading towards Sunnyholt Rd just before it went under the railway bridge.
-
C34 s1 and s2 will both be the same, and finding standard ones (or getting them sent to you without breakages) is hard enough, let alone finding different available options - assuming they even exist in the first place!
-
I wish I had the manual subframe in mine - these babies came up for sale a few years back and I was soooooooo tempted to buy them as RE30s are amongst my favourite wheels. Unfortunately, the rears stuck out of the guards and the tyres would have rubbed on every bump.
-
Nathan, I saw that Facebook post last night and tried to comment and link with a photo of my car with the V35 wheels on it to prove that they do fit, but for some reason Facebook wouldn't let me reply and/or attach a photo of my car. Good to see you've got it sorted, and that it was something so simple. Anyway, here's a pic for reference:

Yep, I'm guessing because your car is white, a slightly darker colour would work well. I've never been a fan of black wheels, though - what's the point in having or buying nice new wheels if you can't see the detail in them.
-
They will look great on your car, I've got them on mine

Tyres you use(d) and how u would rate them
GoldZilla replied to ZigenGT's topic in Suspension, braking and tyres
Would also love to know this, as I have PS3s on my Stagea and love them. -
Remember that old (NZ???) speeding ad with the silver M35 about to crash into a Subi Forester pulling out of an intersection? I just saw it here on TV, and both cars have magically received NSW number plates on them!!!
