Veedubya - 02 MK4 Golf, 83 MKI GTI, and 92 MKII GTI Project

Post by **sneakyboy1** » Mar Sun 16, 2008 10:03 pm

Finally got a chance to take a couple of new pictures of the Golf today with some of my new stuff.

02 Golf MK4 4-door 2.slo
88K miles
TSW Kyalamis Wheels
-front-19x8 on Falken 235/35 ZR19s
-rear-19x9.5 on Falken 263/30 ZR19s
HID headlight conversion
JIC Magic custom coilovers sitting on about 2.5 to 3" of drop
Sitting on the living room floor waiting to be installed
-Carbino carbon fiber cold air intake
-Neuspeed stainless catback exhaust

So yeah, there is my VW as it sits now. Near future includes front and rear bumper covers, E-Codes, Boser Hood, and next year motor swap.

My other rides....

OK,
So here is the new project.
Going back to my roots finally!
Been searching for a MKI bunny and this one happened to fall right into my lap at the perfect time.
This car has definately been around the block and I am sure alot of you have seen it already.
It will definataly be going through it's biggest changes in it's life now that I have it. Alot of plans are already in motion.
It's rough right now but it's exactly what I was looking for.

So there she is.
My diamond in the rough.
I'll be towing her home tomorrow and start stripping it down.
I'll start a progress thread sometime later this week.

Very nice! Looks really clean.

Did you notice any gain in HP with the catback? Noise? I've been thinking about getting a new setup, but it's my daily right now and don't want to make myself more deaf.

We can call it a GTI I guess...the 4 door version.

Nice wheel choice, they really compliment the car.

My question, is why the intake is still sitting on the floor. That would take maybe an hour to intstall.......

P.S. that thing looks much better with the suspention in,, but now you should lower it.

Might be a 4 door GTI after engine swap next year. Right now it's a 2.slo

The catback is still sitting on my living room floor. I'll let you know when I get it in though if it makes much difference. I know it will improve the sound alot but not sure about performance especially with this engine. We'll see I guess.

See above RE: GTI

Thanks man!

Thanks, I thought so too! Got too good of a deal on them to pass up and they turned out perfect!

I have no excuses on the CAI. Especially considering I had the battery out to do the HID conversion.

I'm afraid to lower it anymore, we do live in Missoula ya know! I know you know the roads around here! $:\$

Lol - I read that as you had the coilovers on the floor waiting to be installed. So, I'm backwards as usual.
