88 rocco GT

my daily car is a 1988 scirocco GT, standard 1600cc. its on coilovers, sitting on 8x14 and 9x14 steffan BCW's. as the car is lowerd so much the front wheels have been pushed out due to the wishbones being inverted, it was sunny the other day so i headed over to my mate eds, he has a phat jetta on banded steelies, he wanted to do arch work on his due to rubbing, and i wanted to pop my rears out another 15mm each side. here are some pics from the pre work smoke.





oooo filler neck nice and solid!



jacked up for coilover un siezing







mmmm dish



this is how solid eds jetta is, the arches were spotless



now with rear jacked up 15mm to allow for the wider track and the spacers on



















hope you like

you know what i think Andy!!!

Cool pic's , looks real hard mate

i dont like rocco's as a rule, but i just changed my mind

done well andy, im liking all the photos!!

one weekend it'll stop raining and i can finish off my arches

looking very gay

dan you tart you love it really! got the spacers sorted, had to take quite ait off the spigots!

Dude...that looks hard as!!!!!

Makes me want to get the Jetta lower

Looking good andy! After seeing these pics i was wondering what colour coded centres would look like!??! 2 mins later i made this..... Couldnt get the colour matched very well coz of all the shade in the picture but nevermind...

im getting them done all black, make it look hard as

I nearly did them in black aswell. Definately all black or just the spokes/centres?

all black mate

noooo! keep the rim shiney n jus hav the centre black!!!

is there any chance that I saw this in Cambridge a few weekends ago? feb 22nd ish? Sure its the same one - loved it then too!

awesome ride fella

real nice. have been thinking bout putting spacers on my golf but i wish i dint have to higher it, think id have some serious scrapage.

the wheels look good, not a big fan of five spokes but the dish defnately makes the difference and i would love to see what theyd look like on mine.

its mark GTX's now, mate just cut the arches away, and deck it, just do it, itsworth it

really do think this is an awesome car!

i wish i still had this beast, 20v turbo all the way!
