Very nice indeed... I have to admit carbon grey is by far the the best colour for the GTI's.

Like it mate, why arent you putting the Porsche Calipers on it? I find the standard GTI are poor and the lack of feel and fade is bad in my view.

I'm going to have to get these brakes sorted.

every time i drive the car it seriously pisses me off at how bad these brakes are. downright frightening sometimes.



why the frig did vw fit such poor brakes to the car costing so much? there is no excuse.

and why is the steering rack SOOOOOOO slow??? the GTI requires a good 1/4 more lock to make turns my hum drum focus 1.6 requires.

and why the hell does the clutch have absolutely no feel whatsoever and the engine is on its own agenda in 1st gear making slow driving/pulling away near impossible to be smooth.

these things REALLY ruin the car for me and to be honest its getting to the point where I'm not really enjoying driving the thing any more.






nice job with the detailing. car looks good. really impressed with the lights and black door parts.

my porkas are currently being refurbed in red (as need some tlc) but not decided if they are going on the Ed35 as i have a feeling i may need spacers (which i'm not a fan of), looking at other 4 and 6 pot options with bell sized to allow stock wheels, brakes are next priority
