My GT 170 Diesel ........

[davefish]

Nice car. The only thing I would change the red stripe on the front to grey (match the body paint). It looks a little "GTI wannabe" with the red piping imho.

My dad has a GT 170. Where did you get it mapped?

I'm using the generic "fast road" map form ChippedUK - installed via their ST3 unit. Handy bitta kit tbh, i can swap and change maps as needed

Thought about the body coloured thing, personally i'm still undecided......but maybe ......

Very nice car that mate! The wheels and suspension will make an absolutely massive difference!! 

Why did you end up going for the 170 diesel instead of the GTI? Surely the money you have spent on yours could have bought you a very nicely specced GTI.

Not really a money issue with regards the price of the car - i do laot of miles, at only 5 months old it has 14000 miles on it.

And working it out, the cost of what i've done and got planned to do - nope, couldn't have a got a GTi.
I get a good deal from my dealer - with the spec i chose and the price i pay i can't complain 

The GTi would be just too thirsty at the moment. I might get a MK6 GTi aswell - but thats afew months down the line. This car is just a work horse that i've added afew touches too TBH

Are you interested in this full Ed30 set-up notnormal. The roll-bars are 24mm front, 22mm rear. Its a complete set-up dampers, springs and anti-roll bars, done less than 1000miles, probably closer to 500miles.

Thanks, but i've just measured mine, and they are the same thickness anti-roll bars and same shocks, the springs aren't suited to the extra weight of the diesel engine - thanks anyway - good luck sellin

Been playing with Vag-Com, changed afew things here and there :



Also activated the alarm arm and disarm blip noise - quite handy TBH

Fitted cruise control 

Deactivated the seat belt warning noise

Looking cool, nice pic!
Just out of interest how did you stop the damn seat belt bonging!!

Why would you want to?! You get in the car, put your seat belt on then drive away. You shouldn't really ever hear the seat belt noise...
