Does anyway have a pic of a MOMO steering wheel they have fitted to a 90 spec MK2 Golf? Just want to see if with the hub adaptor it looks very out of place.
Cheers
:smiley:

-

Doesn't look out of place from that angle. :smiley:
Have you got a side pic of the actual hub? Sorry to be a pain. :laugh: I'm just worried it'll look odd where it connects.
Cheers dude. Nice to see you've got your GTi btw.
-
haha il get one tomorrow ;)
yeah the gti is getting there :drool:
-
You had a good run in the GTi yet? :cool:
-
not yet, just drove it round the scrappy :laugh: started 1st time even tho it hadnt been fired up since 1999 :shocked:

Get yourself Koni shocks with Eibach springs or Weitec coilovers, fit an Eibach Anti-roll bar kit, get full wheel alignment done, get a performance cam fitted (Kent cams are good), fit a full stainless steel exhaust system and K&N induction kit, and then get the engine tuned up properly and you're laughing. You'll wonder why you ever doubted MK2 Golfs. To gain more performace you could then fit a 2e bottom end from MK3 Golf and get the existing head port and polished.
To be honest I noticed a huge difference in handling just replacing the old stock suspension for new stock suspension.
I need to get a new job, so many things I'd like to do to my Golf... :tongue: :laugh:
Good luck with your GTi anyway. :cool:

picking up some 40 or 50mm Apex springs and shocks tonight, got front and rear srtut braces im bidding on ebay. have a stainless steel exhaust back box, looking to get a full powerflow exhaust system and 4 branch manifold fitted. looking into a performance cam ... not sure about the induction kit, heard mixed responses :undecided:
-
A K&N panel filter might suit you better then.
I bought one quite cheaply on Ebay I plan to at least try. I can always change to a panel filter later on.
-
aye yeah looking to get one of those ... dont really get how its 'better' than a standard filter tho? :undecided:
-
Here's a pic of my momo in my motor:

I think they look great, actually I suppose the boss does look chunky from the side, I'd never noticed that until I just looked at this pic!!! When you are sat behind it you don't notice it at all and that's when it counts. They are great for spirited driving aswell.
-
Cheers Tobz, looks pretty good actually.

It lets you breathe more easily...... :grin: It doesn't restrict the air flow as much so on paper it should make the engine more responsive.
-
brilliant cheers matey :afro: what is the rough price of them ? :)
-
About £40 new i think. They're designed for life though, you just give them a clean every 6 months or so. (they actually reckon 20,000 miles but i just can't leave things alone!)
-
gsf doe a them i got a piperx from them at trade i paid £26 with a drilled airbox its better
-
Not a momo but gives you an idea

Thanks rubjonny, not looking so great close up on the hub. :sad:
As I've started this general thread I have another question: I quite fancy the Eibach Anti-roll bar kit; how easy to fit is it and how much difference to handling would it make fitted alongside a standard suspension setup? :smiley:
As always, cheers guys. :cool:
-
tbh you dont even see the boss when you're in the car.
eibachs will make a nice upgrade to the handling, however the front one isnt easy to fit as you have to support the engine and drop the subframe down...

Well, I decided to go in a different direction and will now get the clutch changed and sort out the gear bushes/linkages with the money I've been given. :smiley:
I got a fire extinguisher for my birthday today as well so at least if my car catches fire I can attempt to save it. :laugh:
