I am driving the Q4 at Phillip Island raceway this weekend... and I have put some 'new bits' on the car. Firstly I have bought some Compomotive 16x8" wheels. I decided to go this way because I need 8" rims to put on the Dunlop 220x600 R16 slicks that I am going to use. Also I have bought a new seat that should help me to stop moving all over the place - its much narrower and a real pain to get out from. A couple of note on the Compomotive wheels. Firstly they are available with the standard 4x98 PCD and in a range of offsets. I went with the ET30 offset - believe me this is the biggest offset 16x8" you can fit under the guards (if you remove the entire inner lip from the front guards). Quite extensive cutting is required on the double skin inner rear guard, and the part where the guard meets the rear door is very tricky. The wheels have massive caliper clearance, about 35mm on the face and about 12mm radially (that is with the 166 type calipers and using the 305mm disk.)
.. Doorhandle ... I need to buy a door handle (just the bit that you grab hold of to open the door) one of my rear ones has broken!.. Does anybody have a spare I could purchase?
cheers, jim..
