Re: Camber shims for B4 rear wheels...
Sorry for the delayed reply, i dont get on here often nowadays. I didn't do the arches myself, but from memory the fronts were rolled flat on new wings that i had fitted, and the rears were cut down and then tapped round and sealed i believe.. if that makes sense. Not your standard arch rolling but ...

Re: Camber shims for B4 rear wheels...
Just noticed that this had been re-ignited so thought id post! The rear arches on my gone-but-not-forgotten B4 weren't rolled flat by any means, they were still about 7.5mm deep, i guess because of the mentioned 'structural need'. I don't know much more than that though i'm afraid. They are big as s...

Re: Anyone got Borbet A's on their Passat B4??
I had Borbet A's on my B4 estate, i like to think i was the pioneer as i'd only ever seen them on a b3 before, but not sure i was! Sold it over a year ago now but absolutely loved it and regret selling it massively! I'm not sure where it is now, believe someone in stoke has it. Originally i had 9x16...

Re: ebay coilovers
I've got ebay stylee coilovers on my B4, bought them off PhilJ for £235, same as hottuning ones i think, i'd say they most definitely do drop to 120mm, enough to have bumpers on the ground basically! You wouldn't want to go any lower really :lol: Make sure they are proper coilovers all round and no...

Re: 110TDi B4 Passats, How Rare?
Interesting this; I was, and still am pretty sure there was never a 110bhp b4, but i seem to remember being made to believe that there was from some source. Mine is a March 96 tdi, and it has the large engine cover on it - stretches all the way to the front, but it is definitely not 110bhp. Its 66kw...

Re: french shoping trolleys
The french have never been good with build quality for sure, although they have always handled well. I agree that virtually no good, or at least no memorable cars have come out of france in the past 10 years really though. I think the french produced some of their best cars in the 80's and early 90'...
