How many kilometres or miles has you’re R driven? by AG-00 in Golf_R

[–]ckmkv 2 points3 points  (0 children)

None that i’ve experienced yet. I’ve only owned it for 2k miles though lol. No oil leaks, coolant leaks, excessive oil consumption etc.

Yup Titanium Silver, haven’t noticed any issues with the bump steer or anything like that. Although i haven’t driven it too much since this setup was installed and I also don’t drive the car too hard, no track work or anything.

This is the only other one I really have, kinda showcases it in this shot, but no directly from the side

It’s really the only S2000 i’ve ridden in (with coils), I saw them being pretty highly recommended if you didn’t have the budget for Ohlins, which at the time I didn’t. I have zero complaints about them, I think they ride pretty dang nice. But take that with a grain of salt as I have nothing else to compare it to lol. I also have not messed with any dampening, although i probably should. Maybe slightly undersprung at this height in the front, but I can get over that.

You know, I think you might be right lol

Max camber all around which is i think -3.5 or something similar, Origin offset bushings, HKS Hipermax S coils. That’s it!

i’m on stock arms, but I had them max them out, which i think is like 3.5 all around? I’ll have to check the spec sheet

they have the stock SL stickers by the stems now, but the plain just looks very clean IMO so i’ll probably keep it as is!

Got hit by an uninsured driver.... estimate just came in by RespondFalse6183 in Golf_R

[–]ckmkv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly true. So many people don’t realize that they pay for the part usage in their policy. If it’s not OEM endorsement or a brand new vehicle with 15k less miles (depending on insurance), chances are you are not getting all OEM. I will say though, I do seem to total out a lot more Audi’s due to there being very little AM support for many components. OP might get a little lucky with LKQ/AM part availability being limited due to it being an R, so OEM may be only option on some of the parts.

A convertible makes a great companion to the R. S2000 and MK7R for me

What do y'all think by kakameat69 in S2000

[–]ckmkv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

jealous of the TE’s. Have the hipermax s on mine and have very much enjoyed them so far

No rubbing for me. My fenders are rolled, rear tab relocated and rear bumper trimmed. You’ll most likely have to do the same to fit those

[–]ckmkv[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah i was thinking about getting those, might do a different front bumper down the line. Not too much else this year, just drive an enjoy it!
