[soundwave]

[footose]

... so tempted to start modding again, but must resist.

[thekatt]

$300? The Wej is strong with this one.

Why you no bring up an R32 from the states instead? all-year car and getting so cheap these day.

[soundwave]

this car was 5k. cheap/fun/easy to mod/lots of parts around/i have 15" winter set up, and .:R would be 15k easy

... so tempted to start modding again, but must resist.

ver.2.0 could be sweet


and just below half tank 400km on the trip yey 1.8t

rear sway /exhaust (still needs dp) / unitronics chip and fixed the stupid sticking starter.









and to everyone who thinks a chipped 1.8t is fast




its much better, but still not fast

[Ricas]

You've done more to your car in a few weeks than I've done with mine in 6 years, LOL

Rear plate is not straight, LOL

[soundwave]

yeah , noticed that when it was on hoist, someone stole a screw?

[Chops]

is the rear sway supposed to hang down like that?

[wparsons]

Agreed, rear sway looks ready to snag things off the road.

[soundwave]

no its not i fixed it after work yesterday

its almost level now

[Chops]

Nice.

[Ricas]

You going to get spacers for the LBs?

[soundwave]

i got 20's on the back now and a set of 10's for the front(looked weird in 4x4)

[Ricas]

Post up some pics of the what it looks like.

[BellCityDubber]

Tidy mk4 Liam.... Looks good!
Keep that red paint nice!

and fixed the stupid sticking starter.



and to everyone who thinks a chipped 1.8t is fast

I hated fixing the mk4 starters... I'd rather change sooty diesel oil...

And yeah, I found the guy who managed to get my mk4, him and his friends are all
"woah bro, this thing's, like, hella fast".... I get a kick out of kids

[footose]

Damn, my start is "squeeling", but it still starts fine - how do i stop the squealing without removing?
