post sedan for sale- clearly state it will be bare from the front doors forward and no wheels
"hey bro, how much for the wheels? are the indicators still available?"

So people are basically being you... to you... and this bothers you...

i no understand? y u no make birds do it?

Thought you'd be more shocked that someone in VWL is actually heeding the advice of other VWLers for once

Hardly, all in would be to stay in it and actually make some money...when I told people not to sell at a loss they didn't listen. If they followed my exact moves they'd be paying capital gains.

I'm just glad I sold my CBA's when I did at about $85 they did go up a tiny bit more but not for long and now they're down to $75, more luck than anything else

You literally just bought an R32 in the exact condition as the car the guy is making inquiries about

Dumb question, is there any good BUDGET detailers? Somewhere where you can just go on a very low notice and get a reasonable to OK job of interior detailing because majorly CBF and car looks pretty shit 95% of the time anyway?

By "good enough" I mean good enough to think "oh yep, that's cleaner now" but with 0 desire to actually take a photo of it.

I would suggest doing it yourself.

mainly because the vaccuum will likely create a spark near a fuel leak and you car will likely be burned saving you (and by proxy, us) from many more years of heartache

I paid 32 bucks at one of those shopping center joints for a exterior wash / polish actually turned out not half bad. Why not just go to somewhere like this? 

My car was shocking after taking it through dirt roads.

inb4 "dose guys scratch your car doe" 

Yeah the thing is my lovely better half is eventually going to respray the car so scratches not really that concerned right now.

Would take to shopping centre, Was curious if any are known as being better or worse than others. Maybe someone knew, etc.

I currently DIY it and I do a decent enough job for myself but I always figure paying someone would get a better result, every now and then.

Given my effort is a few wipes over the plastic to remove dust and occasionally wash the mats and a little 12v vaccuum I own, I don't have massively high expectations, I only washed the mats because I managed to break a take away curry all over the mat... and washed it after about 10 days later, so that'll give you some idea of the quality of job I am looking for

    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
