I've put a build up thread on CP but it just came to me that Holllllld Up, Since i've purchased the GTI i've been on this forum a whole lot more as all you peepz are very helpful so i thought why the hell not stick it up on here to lol. So here it goes.
Hi All
I’ve always wanted to do like a little project diary so to speak but never got round to it in the past plus I don’t really use the computer much so it’s all abit new to me, Ok so I’ve finally got Photo bucket set up after a couple of hours trying to get through while at work so im good to go.
Ok so here’s where it begins, I picked up a 6N2 GTI late last week as shown below (Big Thanks to TurboDaily for coming along to view the car and giving me the nodd),
Car was completely standard to begin with, im going to be carrying out a few mods but nothing tooo special as I’m only looking to run it until the end of the year. (
(Excuse the quality of the pics)
So here’s how she started:-

The main thing is I need to get round to giving it a good clean and polish as the car being red has some faded spots especially on the bonnet :S
Got the car home after taking it for a little drive to see how she performed which I must admit put a smile on my face

Anyways, next step was to slam it:-

I found it rubs a little if I go into a corner to quick but I suppose it’s not a bad thing as I keep telling my self to take it easy so this way I have to lol.
I was going to clean the car but found out my brother took all the cleaning gear :S so I thought Instead of wasting a day let’s put the induction kit on

After fitting the BMC I must admit the noise was superb it’s sort of like a mean grunting sound as you go higher up the rev range

As the night was still young the rear of the car was bugging me, There was just too much red so I thought why not mix thing’s up a little, I trial fitted some smoked Hella’s which looked ok-ish for now so I thought why the hell not

That’s it for now, Slow updates to follow as I can’t really work on the car as much as I would like to since my incident :S
Comments and opinions welcome….
Thanks
