Great cars on here. I've also ended up talking cars when meeting for deals LOL

Anyway two ends of the spectrum in my garage

VW Beetle 1.6 TwinPort working on her slowly with my son. Decent shape and has a lot of documentation.

BMW F10 M5 - Lots of M Performance carbon inside and out, Schnitzer springs on competition dampers and sway bars, Akrapovič exhaust, Will be doing Bootmod 3 next month. Ceramic coated with Gyeon (even the tyres LOL)... and speaking of ceramic (albeit another kind of ceramic) I have a set of ceramic coated downpipes waiting to go on when I do the software. I didn't expect to fall in love but here I am 5 years later LOL. Keeping it and I am shopping for something else at the moment.

In-between wheels at the moment, but these were with the HREs - got tired of the colour. My OEM 19s are back on.

Damn also had a 200sti best car ive ever owned in my life. Great collection man
 
Fafd is basically just a Syndicate/Perfomance brothers tune from Jodin right?

I see there are few Revo manne... Strongly considering it... But 7k at the moment. Oof.

Yea end of the day Judd from that side writes all of the maps, and they're pretty much all the same.
Revo guys are putting up strong nrs on their octane maps, but normal daily maps they're pretty much all the same. The only option is who you support and who you want to work with in future.
Check R&D for Revo, at least then you'll get proper support as well
 
I drive a stock 2014 Polo.

Where would one go to for mods on this thing? Things I would like to look at are:
  1. Brakes - the stock brakes are utter shit, spungy and fades very fast
  2. Suspension - its too sloppy, neither VW or Hi-Q believe me when I say this, or that I think the one shock is broken. Apparently "how can you feel this?" is an answer.
  3. Engine/Mapping - throttle response feels like turbo lag (this is an N/A car, wtf) and the engine is way too anemic for its gearbox. Also has the tendency to interfere in 1st gear (TRE-type thing).
It is now out of warranty and paid off in a month or two, a man needs to start planning on how to approach/appease the government.
 
How have I not seen this thread yet. Nice cars damn.

I drive a 2013 BMW M135i , stage 2 , around 300 wkw

Wrapped her around 2 weeks ago because I wrap cars.

Nice!

How much doe sit cost more or less to wrap a car like that?
Does the price matter if there is a design printed ?

Its around 16k-19k for a printed one as printed ones are generally more expensive , colours changes can be less, or more depending if you go all fancy with chrome etc..
 
Currently drive a Discovery 4 V8

Nice :)

So many Ford owners. Good luck to all, I have my current Ford, once I get rid of this )after the warranty is up), never again. Screw them and their useless service! Rather walk to Cape Town than buy a Ford again.

PS - As ford basically replaced all parts on my Kuga, I reckon I qualify, as apart from the driver seat, nothing is as is from the factory anymore! :p

Yoh, so out of all these cars, only 2 are appealing to me, the rest is not really for me.

But I can see that all is very proud of their rides and take good care of them! Nice :)
 
Got some numbers... R32k for a meth kit and new hybrid turbo on my Fiesta ST...

So damn tempting to get the process started.
 
Can't imagine the Zwartkops Short track is fun with a large car like that. Barely out of 2nd gear most likely through 80% of the track.

Racing there this Saturday again on the motard
Low rev torque monster. Was loads of fun
