No.

@karstgeo7290 thank you for the quick answer!

3 sets! Summer. All season. Track. Everyone doesn't have that many? 🤣

Yep. Guess I'm a good negotiator!

@@Yhippa sticker was $26K. They couldn't give these away then.

Have a read, yes I've had a similar problem but without detail/a video, hard to diag as can be several things. Can try a reset using a scan tool (reset the basic settings of the transmission), can be a mechatronic going out. Or just sometimes it's a normal behavior. www.golfmk7.com/forums/index.php?threads/dsg-jumping-out-of-gear-on-take-off.377958/

Get going! Mine is usually v. neat and tidy. A bit too much crap in it at the moment.

No. Just the basic ceiling pulleys you can get off Amazon.

I basicaly followed him a bit staying a bit behind to be able to deal with that issue...when I saw he was coming across I backed off nd dipped left - at first I thought he was going to stop/hit that wall so was going to go around to the right but once I realized he wasn't and may come across I just slowed down and watched. Not sure what else I could have done here, I also had to consider any cars that may have been approaching from the rear. Always easy to arm chair things like this. Bottom line I was going slow and we didn't hit. The bumper in the track at the beginning of the esses and the one after the blind turn (10) were far more sketchy.

I wish it was that easy, it would need significant modification.

Just a cheap pump from Harbor Freight etc. - the type that fits on top of a bottle of fluid. Fill to overflow then done.

I do have quite a few things from 034 - lower control arms, f/r sway bar end links, engine/trans mounts, full dog bone bits, this can. All has worked well enough for me. I've been through one set of front end links but to be fair, they sell a "motorsport" set with sphericals that I really should be using....I think my second set is on the fritz and I'll go with the more durable set next time. Engine/trans mounts seem fine. All and all no drama with 034 plus they have been v. good w/r to customer service.

@@karstgeo7290 👍 looks good

Ha! STAY THE COURSE!

@MrTurbo_ around $200 for $25K with a 10% deductible for 1-3 day events. I use Lockton. Hagerty also offers it. Remember this is for non-competitive HPDE and these policies usually include time trial coverage as well now. Just seems like a good thing to factor into the costs when the car is still worth a decent chunk.

@MrTurbo_ that's the plan.

@@berdzena8797 Eibach will tell you if you should cut your stops or not.

@@janithasw yes.

@ Thanks, may I know how long you had the lights installed? Interestingly Vland customer service has advised against placing the ballast inside :)

@@janithasw I believe this was earlier this year so maybe 9 mos? Where else would you put them? The r. covers for the low beam would need a hole drilled to pass the cables out. I've had no issues.

@ fantastic I’m of the same view. I’m going to run with the ballasts inside and see how it goes. Hopefully they don’t heat up too much 🤞

Sometimes, it depends on what's going on behind you. If I see an incident on track, I'm getting the hell out of there because if you slow down, you're trusting that others behind you now see you moving slowly + the incident.

@@projectporvette1914 where specifically are we talking about?

@@symawd yep, have to assess all of it. I considered hitting the bumper, b/c entering the esses wrong can cause issues. For my buddy in the white R, I was going to go around but waited b/c I wasn't sure, behind me was clear so had options. The guy spun after 10 I got slowed down so I could assess when I crested...bail out was going to be to go off to the right into the grass. Ground hog...got to just hit it.

Nothing now they don't offer that deal anymore.

@@karstgeo7290 Ah crap, okay. Still worth returning the oil though?

@@trevorzehren139 yep...just deeper.

@@gpeaes you have to add/enable it with either vcds or OBDEleven.

@@karstgeo7290 Roger. Thank you I'll give it a whirl!

@kalidshalati my knee is shot so riding had been hard so this works. Maybe at some point I'll do some mtb videos.

Have the 034 arms installed with solid rubber plus adjustable camber and some caster. Note the BFI "rs3" ones tore for someone I know so get the OEMs if going that route.

I think you are right, when I get the old one out I'll do some measuring and compare to the JXB unit. Too bad b/c these arems with caster/camber are a better option than the stamped steel stockers. How many of the SP bushings have you had fail?

@@karstgeo7290 I'm on my third or fourth set of SP bushings

Great info and yeah, it just has issues...I wish SP could figure this out b/c I know I'm not the only one. Great idea but if I can't get more than 1 year not worth my time. I have a buddy who has roasted the solid rubber ones too so it is a wear part and I undestand that...really want these Al arms with sphericals.

@@karstgeo7290 Yeah, manufacturing at this cost is difficult. If I wanted these to really survive then I'd use a MOCA based urethane with a strong bonding agent (or equivalent since MOCA is being phased out, toxic). If you have a good relationship with a urethane manufacturer you might be able to throw these in during a MOCA run. Super Pro's customer service is the most important part and props to them.

Interesting idea!

@Josh-qm4rb 245/40/17 Nexen N'Fera Sport R 200tw tires on 17x9 wheels. Too much to list but basically larger OE turbo for power and some camber/sway bars/ springs/dampers. BBK.

@@Heckleburger yep. Send it anyway!

@@stezywtw who's asking?

@@karstgeo7290 in his friend from school

@@stezywtw yes..he's mine

@@karstgeo7290 sorry if that was weird he tells us about your TH-cam channel

The point was simply that jounce bumpers are springs and are designed to be utilized as-such in many applicaitons. "hitting" them isn't a bad thing, but they can be used to tune the suspension travel for sure.

@@gpeaes sure.

@@gpeaes it's really a repeated use fade issue.

@@KyeRannoSaurusRex RACEKOR

Yep. Not with 200tw tires though 😂

@karstgeo7290 planning on putting a 100tw on my daily too 😂 but I'm thinking if it will last a year or just a months 🤔

@@BLCK-4A why?

@@karstgeo7290 I have an extras of them 🤪
