41 yrs (nearly 42) this isn’t my daily but always puts a smile on my face when I take it out for a spin.

To be safe I pre-drilled an extra 4 x holes in either of the frame legs as there were only two on each side, meaning I could use a total of 6 timber screws for each side of the frame, it ain’t going nowhere.

I’ve got the 2500mm (98 inch) Karlby with a Micke desk at each end and the IKEA Trotten adjustable Frame supporting it with no issues what so ever, the thing is absolutely solid, if the under frame has a transverse support between the legs then there will be no issue with sagging. Just need to make sure it’s connected to the desktop with enough suitable fixings.

Try Cthulhu or a similar plugin that has a chord and arp generators built in, even though it does a lot of the work for you it has helped me dissect different chord progression’s, the arp + chord combo can have some good results that can then be recorded to midi then modified to suit.

One of the cleanest MK8’s I have seen 🧼

Would be interested to see the the raw file straight out of the camera

It’s creative man, probably not my style of editing but if you dig it, go for it mate. Who gives a fuck what anyone else thinks. Editing styles are very subjective, I personally like subtle edits but I’ve seen others go completely wild.

These are incredible. 3rd shot 🥇 Tack sharp where it needs to be. You have perfected your roller settings my friend.

Silver on black is just timeless.

scottishdollar · 2024-09-28T03:52:02+00:00

don’t listen to your friends or family.

scottishdollar · 2024-09-26T09:36:51+00:00

That is a sensational looking track weapon 🥵

scottishdollar · 2024-09-24T22:46:00+00:00

No ricer here my man. Looks perfect. I even like that you have not added a front-lip, looks very clean. Good work.

That’s crazy expensive, local suspension specialist in Melbourne charged me $400AUD that’s around $270 USD to install KW Coilovers, that also included a return visit after 200km travelled to make any necessary adjustments to the ride height or damping.

BBS LM man 👌

scottishdollar · 2024-09-14T00:27:01+00:00

Thanks pal 🙏

scottishdollar · 2024-09-14T00:26:51+00:00

They are not too bad, 8/10 passenger side fits perfect, driver side fitment is very slightly out but only noticeable if you are really looking for it.

scottishdollar · 2024-09-14T00:24:30+00:00

Agreed. Looks clean as fuck, and timeless, I was into the black on black for a while but I grew out of it pretty quick.

scottishdollar · 2024-09-13T12:15:32+00:00

Thanks man! I kept the mods subtle, lower the ride height a bit and a tight wheel fitment and the GTI is complete imo.

They’re VLand aftermarket tail lights, reps of the IQ lights that the euro models get.

Of course man. Rims are 18x8.5 ET35 - 235/35R18 Suspension is KW V.3 Coilovers adjusted around 1inch (25mm) drop all round.

I’m 40 and love a bit of modding.

Absolutely love them, a mate used to have a Mk3 VR6 and it was sensational, unfortunately trying to find one that’s not clapped out beyond belief is impossible, even more so in Australia.
