It's as low as I can get it currently. If I remove helper springs from the coils I can get a extra 1-2" out of it, but its a vr6 so the oilpan is retarded low as it is.

Damn that is a crazy stretch! What are the specs on the tires? I was planning on doing that with some BBS RS's on my Corrado, but its up for sale right now.

Edit-Very nice GTI BTW!

$200+ a week in gas. I sold it and went back to my real love mk3 vw's and bought a supermoto. Now I sold the supermoto and am picing up a new KTM 690SM.

My pal Dan still has it, If I bought the TDI I woulda had to sell the supermoto at the same time just so I didnt have $600 in payments. Then my buddy Euel mentioned selling his mk3 and I was all over it. I love these little boxes
