The slow gti

[tweed]

Wow been a long time. Haven't done much because of karting. Don't get the time if I'm not racing I'm practicing and then the missis wants to do something... Women!!!

Well since last post I've put in a high lift cam. I'm yet to get it on a rolling road but its a noticeable power increase.

Put in a mk4 leather steering wheel. Looks a lot better with the leather seats and black ABC
 
I've gone to 195/40/16 tyres on front 8" to get same looking stretch as the 195/45/16 on the 9"

I've changed the camber shims on the rear because had too much toe in and it killed tyres.

I've changed some relays and changed all four top mounts.

Oh I put on a decat pipe because well I don't need a cat on my car. Passes mot without one  I put on a straight pipe and magnex backbox. I don't like it and need to replace with a full system like jetex. So if anyone is selling a system pm me.

Took some photos yesterday

Soo clean, love it! Still think dragon greens the best mk3 colour

Cheers man!!

Think the dishes need a polish as they going goldish colour.

Yeah I like green 

[murraymint]

No worries. Think my next mk3 will be a dragon green 3door gti.

Yh they do lok gold in the photos, looks good! Not doin any damage to them tho?

Next one?! You've only just finished ya 16v 

Hope not  they're stainless maybe just a bit on deep dirt. Ill get the polish out when it's dry and shine them up.

Or it's a good excuse to split them and powder coat the centers gold and the barrels red

Yh I know lol but gotta have a project on the go lol. Am thinking about building a v-twin flat tracker ready for when I get my bike licence but that won't be welcome on here  .

Yh props just need a bit of elbow greece. Gold and red you say.

Non dub projects? 

I love bikes I want to build a old triumph bobber but maybe when I'm bit older and can't race no more.

Yeah gold and red. Maybe with black bolts and center cap. Won't see the barrels but you will see a red lip when driving behind me
