Im all new...
« on: 09 March 2010, 23:39 »
 :tongue:
Hi all, just registered and thought id say hello. My cousin has also recently registered, his username is golfmk3owner... im his younger cousin, hence ive got a younger car... the mk4 :P
GT TDI 130... diesel and i love it (no tractor comments please, but petrol is way too expensive these days  :sick:).

Will post pictures up but mods so far:
LED taillights
Limo black tints in the back
Pioneer head unit

Now for some advice! Ive bought the Ultra GT suspension kit from weitec, and have a set of 18s on theyre way :P
I'll be fitting the suspension at the end of the week but was wondering, what things should i replace whilst fitting the suspension? i will replace the bumpstops but do i use OE bumpstops or are there some uprated stops i should get?
anything else worth replacing whilst the struts are off?

next on the agenda... R-tech.. need i say more?

many thanks, ill post pics soon

Welcome to the dark side. Get onto R-Tech for a remap :P

I would replace the top mounts front and back.

Okey doke, i thought as much with the mounts. Do i get standard mounts? or is there some sort of mount more suited for uprated suspension? and likewise for the bumpstops?
cheers mate
