New MK4 owner

[jclarkeGTI]

Hi all, my name is James and im a new mk4 owner.
After a series of french and jap cars i came across a mk2 gti 8 valve and loved it so much i just wanted VAG.

i recently sold my mk2, with a change of job i stepped up my car to a MK4 1.8 gti turbo.
its a 3 door in astor grey.
i have had the car a week now and love it to bits already. starting to look for things to do to it, even thought i said i would leave it standard.....always the way.

anyway thought id introduce myself and hope to make some new mates.


everyone likes a good pic,
so here is my old MK2 gti in alpine white


here is my new MK4 gti turbo



thanks for looking, please suggest things to do to my MK4, its looking a litte too standard at the moment 


thanks all, James.

where do you begin!! theres loads of threads on her regarding modding, just use the search bar!!!, wheels, suspension, remap seems to be the norm on 1.8t's!

welcome anyways!!!!

Welcome mate,

A few simple mods to get you going are the Rear Aero Wiper mod, Rear Sharan Badge, Maybe changing the interior trim for some net optic or R32 stuff and Anni or 4motion valances are a must 

Just have a look around mate and don't be afraid to ask questions, loads of knowledgeable ppl on here.

remap first, then things will start going wrong, the just upgrade things as other things break!

enjoy your stay

remap, full exhaust, ARB's, R32 DSG intake Mod, collies or uprated springs and shocks,
