Ready to race!
Well I was over at the vw dealer today checking out my gti. They put it in the side lot for me. It's killing me waiting till the end of the month, but I have to wait for my tax return & I cashed in some investments. This way I'll buy the gti straight out & won't have to worry about a payment.
Think I'm going to go with the bbs ch's vs. the lm's. I want to stay on springs & I know with the H&R ss/koni yellows I'll be able to get rid of the gap without being slammed & it should just tuck a small amount of tire with 19's. I also think it will look sharp with the bbk front/R32 rear I'm going with. I know with the lm's I'll need to be on fk's & slammed to pull them off.
AWE has renewed my sponsorship so I'll go back to a k04 w/ tbe, ccb, S3 ic, boost gauge, giac tune(whenever it's done for the 2011's), outlet pipe etc...
I've also been finalizing the mods I hope to have done, by wf:
-golf R headlights
-golf R led taillights
-R front/rear bumpers (if oem+ can get them to me in time)
-ecs stage 5 bbk w/ R32 rear brake kit
-bbs ch 19x8 et50 (will use spacers to get wheels out further)
-awe treatment
-hardwired rd & stealthbox
-bunch of custom cf & pc'd goodies under the hood
-oem roof rack & thule fairing
-H&R ss springs w/ koni yellow shocks & H&R f/r sway bars
-whiteline walk kit w/ full bushing kit & audi mk2 TT control arms
-bsh catch can & end links
-3 vf mounts
-re-use some of my mkv parts (weichers bar, gas cap etc...)
-katzkin interior
-small personal touches
Should be a fun project & I learned alot from my last build.
