I agree, thats why I'm still on coils. I will say that for a lot of those guys air is more for convenience. Not destroying your car on every single bump or dip gets old. I know.

Yeah air or start making custom engine mounts, subframes, etc.

I've only broken 1 pan so far. I mainly just hit subframe.

lol I remember banging the fuck out of my oil pan on my integra back in the patterson area. I can only assume honda oil pans are much stronger, because it was dented to hell...

said car.. stance, no fitment : ( tbh I thought tucking your shit way up in the fenderwell was the biz. back in the day. (05 06) Obv. it'd be different if I still owned it today. (but, fuck that lol)

^ that actually, kinda works!

but yeah in the vw's the vr6 pans in the newer mk4's are aluminum so hit anything and they shatter because the previous vr pans were steel so when they were hit, it would fuck up the block too cause they wouldn't give. the 1.8t's have hybrid pans that are like aluminum and steel IIRC.

god damn. expensive game you vw's play

I always thought I'd be driving a staticly SLAMMED vw on porsche wheels. Got a Porsche job and just bought a Porsche (and took the oem porsche wheels off, ironically). I'd still rock the hell out of one.

lol yeah I worked there, I don't know how the fuck it didn't get stolen (no alarm, nothing)
Luckily I got fired for 'stealing' clothes the day I got it back from paint. Avoided probably 50 door dings and most likely theft that way. 7/hr bullshit anyway

Actually all mk4's have cast aluminum pans. '04 and later 1.8T's used a hybrid pan. The older ones were steel and dented unlike the aluminum pans. If I break one more I'm getting a steel pan and pounding the shit out of it.
