My new car bought nice and cheap.. Since photos has had a cheap eBay FMIC fitted so this will be removed and standard wing mount refitted shortly.. Smokes on idle so likely going to get turbo rebuilt and valve stem seals changed.. Nice tidy car just a few niggles which let it down at the moment :)

So since owning it I have been driving it with no issues but there are bits and bobs needed..
New second hand turbo on route to fit and will get my one rebuilt and made into a ko4 hybrid at some point..
I fixed the secondary air pump as the metal rivets were gone so replace with nuts and bolts so now it's quiet on start up..
Just bought all new Pagid discs and pads all round I don't need anything fancy will get some track pads later in the year more than likely..
I need to buy a catch can I bought a sakou Michi one for my old mk4 so will likely get another as they are awesome and a good stealth fit.
Need to order some new silicone hoses and joiners for my FMIC as I'm going to fit it better..
Need a downpipe and exhaust and a tip.. Then it can be remapped :)
-
So new pads and discs fitted all round which is much better..
New oil level sensor.. Full service.. New secondhand turbo..
Car still smoking so likely to be rings or stem seals.. Might just buy a replacement engine and do cam belt and service on it and just change in a weekend save me hassle..

Car still has it's issues but it's still driving that's all that matters.. It is hunting on idle which we thought was he MAF sensor so a new one has been fitted and still the same.. Even on Paul away some,times it feels like turbo boosts and lets off at like 1300rpm.. I can't see any splits in vacuum.. Could this be n75 or the fact it has a bailey dv fitted ? Any ideas appreciated.
Also run it on my diagnostics and only thing come up is O2 sensor something or other need to check sensor and wiring under the car.

Picking up a new engine for the golf tomorrow it's 75k engine from an S3 engine code AMK which is cool and comes with k04 turbo and manifold. Hopefully be 300bhp before the year is out :evil:
