mk3 gti 16v anniversary
« on: 05 January 2011, 22:19 »
hiya heres a few pics of my new mk3. Its standard except for the lenso eagle 17in alloys and the exhaust which is a powerflow full stainless. The back box will be changed sometime this year to a twin exit similar to the standard also its been lowered but just on springs and struts again this will be changed for a set of coilovers. It came with loads of reciepts and also the original alloys aswell which werent in the best of condition so i quickly refurb them with some matt black just to use during this sh!tty weather to keep the salt off the lensos.

That is very very nice.  :cool: :cool: :cool:

If you switch to coilovers you will need arch mods with 17"s, I would leave it as it is to be honest.

was thinking coilys just to raise it slightly cos where i live its pot hole city which iam sure is the same for everyone after this weather and the suspension thats been fitted is very stiff so i have to drive like a slarlome to miss the holes otherwise if i hit one its sends a massive thud through the car.

It looks like GTI 16V which would be standard.

I know that's the standard but when i had a closer look it doesn't look like 16v lol

Maybe it's just my eyes!  :undecided:
