In August 2014 I acquired a 2012 4-door; figured I should start a build thread over here before I get too deep.
I moved from an 2002 337 Edition GTI which had Koni coils, APR tune, TBE, Intake, Stage 3 Clutch, and a bunch of other minor bolt-ons. The 337 was getting old and starting to have a lot of the issues that come with a 12-year-old car with 165,000 miles.
I moved up in the world, and purchased this Golf R. When I purchased the car it was immaculate and right at 30,000 miles. I am striving to build a track-able daily, completely sourced from the Classifieds. If anyone has anything cool or unique for sale let me know!
Mods Planned:
United Motorsports Stage 2+ Tune (Appointment scheduled at Wookies in the Woods)
Mods Purchased:
Track Brake Pads
Five Axis 19 x 8.5 et45 Matte Bronze Wheels
Bridgestone Potenza RE760 Sport 235/35x19
Neuspeed Sport Springs
Mods Complete:

EVOMS Intake
42DD Shifter Bushings
