is it because it sounds like cutie-pie? or am i way off target there!
welcome to the forum by the way!!
-
mmm... well, my friend Cory Made it up, he drives a crx and an ek9, if i could work out how 2 get pics on this thing i could show you the kp. (thats me)....
so any of you guys gonna help a chick in trouble out?
-
careful saying things like that, the regulars will be round in force before you know it!
Easiest way to get pics into your posts is to get a photobucket account (www.photobucket.com) then u can upload the pics from your pc onto there. All you have to do then is copy and paste the third line of text from under the picture (think its the image line) into your post.
Sounds complicated but its not so bad.
Alternatively if you send pics to philippearson247@hotmail.com il get them on here for ya.
Welcome to the site by the way :wink:

the 20vt engine is the best (when they work lol). highly tunable :D
welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the forum.  :smiley:
To post pics, open a free account on www.photobucket.com upload your pictures to it from your pc and when they are in there copy the third text field under your pic and paste it into a thread and the pic should be seen by all, so quickly now.  :wink: :laugh:
I see Phil's already told you but I couldnt be bothered editing my post. :tongue:

welcome to the forum..
there's a fair few common faults with the mk4's (i should know, mine's had most of them :sad: ) but some of them depend on the year of the car.. got an age in mind ?
have a browse through the mk4 section, use the search too for things like "common problems" then just ask anything specific that you want to know.
toph.
-
yer im thinking around the 2000 possibly 99 one, but it all depends on the milage, most of the ones i have seen have an massive milage... :angry:, it will be the 150bhp, as i think once its re-mapped will be quite fast enough for lil me, will keep up with some of my mates, waste afew, and get trashed by 3 or 4, but i WILL be the chick wasting the boys :wink:
-
how YOU doinnn..
you might find this helpful, some advice i gave a guy a while back looking to buy a car similar spec to you..

Hiya Katie Welcome to the forum :wink:
-
Wicked thanks, thats gonna be a real help ' topher' . Il have a look at it properly when i get back, off out now
Be safe x x x x Thanks for the nice welcome people :smiley:
-
Only two pages in, and we are already onto the pics without prompting? and where the hell is LEN ! he is slacking badly on this one !
:grin:
-
yer, i was jst tryin 2 work out how the hell 2 get pics, and they are the only 1s that didnt have all my mates in it etc.they have gone now, as i dont want to come across as a "put myself about on forums" kinda chick, not cool :smiley:
-
Ahh bless. Be sure to get some pics up of the car when you buy it !
:smiley:
-
Arrow. :cool:
Gotta catch the boys before you can start wasting them :wink:
easiest way to host pics is as said get a photobucket account. Muchos fun to be had. :smiley:
-
Len here! Been busy today! :wink:
Yea go ahead and post a photo, we dont mind!
My Son-in-law BillyVW has got a 1.8T with a chip/remap that recorded 176 bhp at the last club Rolling Road day. And yeah its quite a nice quick car!
So happy hunting and hope ya find a good one!

I'd expect more than that though, revo reckon 200+ with theirs. :undecided:
-
yer, i was lookin on a VW tuning website, and i dont no how true this is, but they reckoned that just running it at 14psi would take it up to 195 bhp...
I am hoping mine will be roughly 200bhp maximum when im done, but i want to re-map the ecu then sort out the handling before i do anything else...
Dont want to go rolley polley again, (did that the other day :sad:)
-
btw...is anyone else in total 100% love with the 25th Anniversary mk4 golf???? :drool: :drool: :drool:
-
YES!
i ocasionally see a black one on the way to work at the traffic lights, i sometimes have to get honked at to move as i am too busy looking at the golf!
-
Deffo need to sort the handling out on them bloody great big shopping trollies :evil:
and as for "rolley polley" i have done that too, was a bit bizarre tbh, slow motion and all that stuff. :cool:
-
who me? :smiley:
i like them in silver if i was to have a preference, although now u mention red ones i have seen one of those knocking about my part of the world, nothing to be sneezed at
-
shopping trolley ?!! thems fightin' words.
i like the anni, prefer the R32 :cool: ... although i might end up with a TDI anni for work since my 1.8T is drinking 2 tanks of optimax a week.
as for the tuning, the remaps do a lot more than up the boost, all sorts of timing and fuelling banks are adjusted. with a decent exhaust/cat and remap you might just hit 200bhp with a 99 car, they started putting slightly bigger turbos on the later models which give a bit more pull.
-
Bloody hell, 1.8T and a rallye thats just plain greedy topher, i think u should donate one of them to me :rolleyes:
Would prefer an R32, goes without saying but would for about 5 or 6 grand cheaper the Anniversary is a good understoody, especially with it re-mapped!
-
and as for "rolley polley" i have done that too, was a bit bizarre tbh, slow motion and all that stuff. :cool:
yer, me and my bf went for a tumble just over a week ago in his glanza :sad:was horrible :sad:
and ofcorse the r32 is nicer than the 25th, but it is in a different league i think :undecided:
Also, yer im getting it re-mapped, WHEN i get one, was jst quoting what was said on a website, jst wondered if there was any truth in it, as i am abit of a self confessed dits when it comes to the mechanical side of cars :embarassed:
-
Aye i crashed on a dual carriage way was rather eventful, shame cos i just spent about 6 months getting it all running again and was finally happy with it. Oh well got an even more powerful mk2 now, and they say you live and learn... :evil: :evil:
-
they say you live and learn....
The second glanza owner on the island, also rolled his one yesterday morning but at about 120mph, but he cant say the above...
But yer tobes had only had it afew months and we had jst been 2 the car wash so she was a'shinin lol funny old word eh' hehe...
-
so...has anyone found any really cool websites where one can purchase my intercooler, air filter, coilovers etc etc etc etc etc and actually used it? if so wanna throw the link my way? :wink:
Much appreciated :grin:
-
i think www.awesomegti.com will cover most of that..
it might not be on the website yet but they sell the forge motorsport FMIC kit for mk4 golfs as well as everything else on your list.
toph.
-
yay wicked!
i found this one:
www.autotech.com
it looks pretty good, but its $'s tho
-
welcome to the forum hun :smiley:
Dinx :kiss:
-
cheers :smiley:
-
Well gibby old chap - thats how it was when he bought it and with no info on what had been done as it was a stolen/recovered he is more than happy with how it is now!
So wheres these photos then? :rolleyes:
Not another photo tease! :tongue:
-
ahhh... starlet turbos. Nuts to rolling one of them - mine folded enough when a taxi decided to mate with it! and that was just the front offside!
-
hiya :smiley:
-
...Not another photo tease! :tongue:
Ha Len, you are losing it! you missed them, she posted them on page one, but has deleted the post now !
:grin:
-
uuuuurm... well im not a photo tease, as i never said i would display a photo of lil'me.
And, yer the glanza didnt look to pretty when wed finished with it....
I tell you what..ill show u a pic of the glanza (even though this is a vw forum)

yer...just a scrape and all that Jazz... :wink:
-
bugger - I spent ages thinking of the easiest way of smoothing the aerial out and there it was!
-
peh need to do it properly
This:

bloody hell! Thats one badassed scrape :wink:
Thats quite impressive, we did £6.5k damage on the glanza oopsy daisy. Were u okay after ^^^^ that?
Hope so!!
and as for the smoothing out the arial... that was what we wanted to do...and i am pleased to say, it was successful. A roll a day keeps the singal away (bad bad bad joke :embarassed:)
-
oh dear :rolleyes:
Mornin tho katie, what u doin on here at stupid o clock?
-
Ahh, im an early riser, none of that sleeping for half the day rubbish... :grin:
what were you doing u up at 8 o'clock anyways?
-
apparantly its called work but i havnt figured out why yet. I just play around on here, teach people how to belt a little white piece of plastic with a stick, then to rub it in, i go do that myself!
Oh the hard life of a golf professional. :grin:
What do u do then? And how old are you btw? hardly look old enough to be gettin a 1.8t from your picture (meant in a nice way)
-
im 17, 18 in september... am looking to either go for the 1.8t or an MR2 gt uindesided yet... The only thing, from looking at this forum is that the vw's handling looks like its quite an isssue, and i really dont like the thought of a car wallowing around on the roads...but as i said im undesided...
Obviously you are bias to the VW love, but what would you do... get a mint mr2 (maybe turbo,depends on insurance) or spend like 5k on a 1.8t??????????
-
good luck on gettin it insured! goin to cost almost as much as the car!
And to be honnest I would deffinately get a 1.8t over an mr2. as standard the 1.8t has slightly stiffer susps than other models i think, but if you look around and are prepared to travel you may even find one thats already on coilovers or at least been dropped a bit. will work out less than lowerin it yourself.
So are you workin then? surely you wont be buyin one of those on a students budget!?!
-
Go for the Golf every time!
The handling is fine! Believe me!!!! :rolleyes: :grin:
-
I'm a man so wouldn't get the MR2 on principle, but it would be a tough choice. Rear wheel drive is mightily appealing!
-
^^^^ :grin:
Hi! yeah i would go for the golf too! (but as you said we are all biased :smiley:)
Insurance will be bad enough on the golf let alone an mr2 turbo as they are jap imports. MR2's are cheaper too buy tho.
-
hey welcome katie :grin:
i will be selling my 1.8t fairly soon hopefully to get an anniversary
mine is v reg registered in november 99 56.000 full vwsh let me know if ur interested
-
ok, im gonna have to respond to all your posts in order as im getting ocnfused :wink:
1) Insurance is only £1100 golf is £950 1 years no claims (thats on diamond i love bing female :grin:)
2) No im a "student" and i work, but i got given a car worth about 2k, so it all adds up. plus got some money saved
3) Real wheel Drive = :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: , however, i shall have to keep the keys hidden if i got it, as i have had, lets say afew requestes to "rag it in the car parks" from certain people...sooooo not happening...
4) yer, il be lookin to spend about 4k on the mr2, so il be able to get a nice 96 gt (possibly t-bar) for that, as i will have about 5 or jsut over to spend, so id rather get a mint mr2 than a not so hot 1.8t
5) thanks for the offer, its a lovely looking car, (assuming its the one in ur pic) but if i do get a golf it will be a 3dr :smiley:
-
i was looking for a 3 door for ages and found it hard to get a good one at the right price
that is the pic of mine as standard as it comes and in pretty good condition
hope you find what your looking for :grin:
-
Welcome... :)
-
hey :smiley:
-
Welcome to the forum! I'm sure you'll see the light and definately go for the Golf :wink:
-
I have both an MR2 and a Golf GTI T (picked it up yesterday).
The golf feels solid and drives well. Its faster than the N/A MR2 I have and is so more practical having 5 doors, a boot (hurrah!) and more than two seats. The Mr2 gets tons more looks than the Golf though and has a nice 'lay down' style seating position.
Overall I would say get an MR2 now rather than later on in life as at the moment your young and practicality isn't your style. When you get older grab a nice GTI T and sing the praises of seats, boot space and a comfortable ride!
-
You are right, thats the best bit of advice iv been given on the subject,
what model mr2 did you have, and what year was it?
Did you have any problems with it? :smiley:
-
Well ya only just told us how old you are! If you had said 17 right off we might have recommeded different! :rolleyes:
To be honest I still think you should go for the Golf, but only on a practical level. I mean do you take mates places? Is 4/5 seats gonna be better than 2?
If you just want a posing car why not consider an MX5???? :laugh:
-
Or alternatively get a sh!t fast mk2 :evil:
-
Not selling it are ya Alex??? :rolleyes:
-
No mate, i was close to it a few weeks ago, as some people will know. Now i am deciding to stick with it, and will be looking for an oil burner come end of summer. Garage mine up and get the saving kitty going. Big plans for the engine and a few other bits and peices, hopefully over 200bhp will be seen in the future. ( although at the moment i am happy with my 190 ) :wink:
-

I still have it, it's garaged around my folks place. It is a 2.0 16v n/a UK MR2 (UK models are slower but at least you know the history of the car from the day it was born and not from the time it was brought to the country!).
It's a good car, nicely built but if you need a cambelt change or anything that requires the engine to come out its expensive to fix. In the two years I have had it I have only had problems with the brakes. A common thing with MR2's are that brakes seize. You can recondition them but I felt buying new sets all round was a better idea. I have the rev6 lights on the rear which add a 'skyline' effect however the build qaulity of them are awful for the price I paid. Appart from that the only other things I did was the stereo. Easy job to do in the MR2's as they come appart nicely. Amp under the bonnet sub behind the passenger seat and nice components in the doors. Sounds good and when the passenger pisses you off you give them some early bowel movements by increasing the bass :)
Hope this all makes sense and helps you!

mx5= yucky
Yer, i do take mates places, but we all drive and tend to go out in force, so it wouldnt be that bigger deal, and id still have room for a passanger.
in reality 4/5 seats is going to be better than two, but i can live without til i get older and settle down....
hmmmm...
oh i forgot to say thanks to 'kompliance' thats really cool, toyota are generally really reliable cars arnt they. What year did you say it was?
-
He didnt!
Think on this one then.
Are there many shows/events for Mr2's?????
There are loads for VW's!!!! Plus you can mingle with the air-cooled lot.
So big stuff like Bugjam, which is a tent job and loads of mates you are gonna need the space! :grin:
Plus you will get to meet some of us friendly bunch! :wink:
-
I thought we were trying to encourage her towards buying the golf len, not put her off for life :grin:
The old boy does have a point tho. There are some great events around the country over the summer time. I did a couple last year and met up with every one from here. Theyre a crackin bunch of people. You do feel part of a club when you get there and all these people youv just met are gettin you pissed and talkin about all things vdub!
If you do go for the golf (and again i recommend it) then you really should make an appearance at one of the shows. Bring a car full of mates, adequate lubrication (BEER) and a tent and youl not regret the decision you made....
...til the morning after, when, like us youl say never again, until 11.30 and get back on it again! :laugh:
-
I was Phil. :rolleyes:
But then the prospect of meeting me may not be such and incentive! :wink: :grin:
Until after the 3rd drink! :laugh:
-

Im becomming a man of many smileys recently, i recon i use on average 3 a post. So heres another above average post by yours truely then :laugh:
-
In case no one actually noticed, the young lady is from the Isle Of Wight so it's higly unlikely she'll nip up to GTI festival on a Sunday morning. :huh:
-
SO?
They have ferries! :tongue:
It was the bigger events I was thinking of, like as I mentioned - Bugjam.
-
Im in guernsey and it (hopefully) wont stop me. We could meet up and make the journeys together? :wink:
-
He didnt!

JAE and Japfest are amongst the more popular events for jap cars and there are also the two main clubs for MR2's running all year.
@ Katie: Mine is a H reg and has seen brighter days.
A picture of the MR2 in its early days;

P.S Parking/Driving onto peeble beeches is a bad idea ... I got stuck that day and sank which you can kinda make out from the photo!
-
aha yer, so it would seem.
As for the travelling thing, travelling is good. any excuse for a road trip :grin:
The bembridge "team" are well renouned road trippers, (normally spontaniously)
The mr2 does look rather raveshing there btw.

down philip down! :wink:

Hi Katie,
With regards to your PM;
A quick low down of my experiances with an MR2 (DISCLAIMER: Also includes my opinion as an owner)
Well built cars as far as interior goes. I ripped mine appart to fit a 10" sub / 1100W rms amp with some components and found that everything is well held together so there isn't really much question on rattles unless someone has been abusing the car. With the stereo up the outside of the car doesn't rattle either, in fact you can barely hear the stereo from outside which is fantastic as it add's to privacy. MR's have a comfortable interior, I drive from London to Brighton a lot and never feel uncomfortable at all. I should also mention the driving position as it differs from what your probably used to. They are a 'lay on the floor' car. A real sporty feel and I grew well accustomed to this.
Exterior is good as these cars rarely rust. Window rubbers usually need replacing due to the age of the cars. I replaced the rear lights on mine and although it looks better I fear for the poor 3rd party build quality. If you ever go to look at one of these cars check all the lines of the bonnet and rear end. People crash MR2's as they are very poor to drive in the wet. They handle like a god in the dry but come the winter you have to pay attention to speed in the corners as you will (and this is no reflection on your driving) spin 180 degrees and wave to the traffic on the other side of the road.
Engines are good and strong. Keep them topped up with oil/coolant and water and they will out live c0ckroaches. I have 139k on mine and still starts every time on the button. I would bring your attention to repairs as cambelt changes and any work that requires engine to come out is very costly. General servicing is easy as the oil filter/sump plug are within easy reach.
Finally I would add I had a great time in my MR2 but these cars impractical and dangerous in the wet. If your happy with your skill as a driver, the two seats and (if your due one) a cambelt change (£450.00 for a rubber belt inc fitting) then I would say for a two seater car you can't really buy better. The alternatives in my opinion don't look as good/work as well as the MR2 (and yes I'm aware some people would kill me for saying that about the mx5).
Hope this all makes it a little clearer Katie. I can't comment on the GTI T just yet as I have had it barely a week and so far wouldn't count myself ready to say yay or nay (but its a yay ;))

katie, what do you drive?!
:han feels like she's talkin to herself!?:
-
Didnt she say she was choosing between a golf and a mr2?
-
i dunno, tis why i asked!
-
Yes! she did! :)
-
tbh theres no doubt about it, golf it is!
-
hmmmm... well, at the moment the only thing the golf has up on the mr2 atm is that its a newer car, and it will be cheaper 2 run... but i cant help thinking i may have a slight technical hitch as far as the mr2 is concerned... on account of im 5 foot 2 and im not entirly sure il be able to see where im driving... Hmmmmmm.....
-

lets hope ya get decided! what do you drive atm anything?

only think to report is that there are other boards that you can post on :wink:
come on guys, 18 pages and couning!
-
hee hee hee
-
wow
just read from page 1..................... im wasted now....
mr2 is a good car,,,, very tail happy in the wet though.... i know my old one was and that was just a 1.6 mk1.
best handling ones as the handling was done by lotus.
golf on the other hand is a totaly diffent animal...
guess it depends on what your after..
if you want a total package get a scooby wrx.
or for the same money get a well sorted mk1 and poss have some pocket money....
its your hard earned...
-
Len's still going on about izzy :grin:
-
heya, yer, i think i have made up my mind.
I figure, that i have the rest of my life to have a practical car, when im older with kids and have to fit as buggy in the boot the 1.8t (or the 2.0 by that point) will be the one for me, i am still in love with them, but i am going to, sorry guys, go for a sw21 n/a mr2 mk2. Hopefully JDM, insurance permitting (lol) as i would quite like as newer one as possible, defo 94 onwards as they had some changes made to their set up at that time. Although i will be ditching the big rims and going for 16's with f1 tyres me thinks, or whatever my bf tells me will give me the best handling at the time..hehe
My friends have been trying to persuade me to get a del sLoW and be part of team honda, as there are quite a collection on the island now. (ek9, very rare crx in malano red, vti-s, s2000, itr, eg6 sir, so on and so forth)
Does anyone live near the island?
Still keep me posted on any meets or cruises you guys are doing as i would love to come up and see all your mean machines.
-
what island would that be? :grin: :grin: :grin:
-
The best island...
The Isle of Wight
-
britain is the best island, that, or ibiza :wink:
-
BAH.. Rubbish...
The island is good, has a good car community, but, the roads are apsolutly apauling, so unfortunatly, in the winter months when "silly season" begins, (what we call the time of year when the roads are at their worst and ppl dont adjust their driving to the conditions) people get hurt.
One day this silly season, there were 11 car accidents in one day. :sad: 5 people died in one day :sad:
But the island still rocks :D
-
Ibiza or Tenerife for me!
-
yer im thinking around the 2000 possibly 99 one, but it all depends on the milage, most of the ones i have seen have an massive milage... :angry:, it will be the 150bhp, as i think once its re-mapped will be quite fast enough for lil me, will keep up with some of my mates, waste afew, and get trashed by 3 or 4, but i WILL be the chick wasting the boys :wink:
WOW, sounds like you know your sh!t when it comes to cars, i like that, chicks over here (U.S.) don't really get into they're cars they say things like "i got to get that thingy replaced" or something like that. or they're have they're boyfriends fix up they're whips for them. i'm impressed and welcome. (i'm new here also)
-
well, pretty much all of my mates are into cars, most of them are boys.
My girl Friends laugh at me as whenever we are out im like ooh look at that...*name the car* or mmmm noice *name the car* they all think im mad.
Iv always been into cars hehe. But i have to admit, when it comes to the actual stick ur head under the bonnet and install an, induction kit, for example, im not very good at all.
But i would like to think i could give the boys a fun for their money. hehe
What part of America are you from. I am strongly thinking of moving out there to coach (ice skating)
