Hello people
« on: 10 December 2008, 14:18 »
Hello,
       I have just become a member so thought i would say a quick hello to everyone and tell you a little bit about myself  :smiley:
 My names Tom aged 20 and i have just managed to get my hands on a MK4 1.8T GTI which i am picking up this friday  :grin:  As i dont no too much about the cars i can see myself spending many hours browsing through the forum, probably on an everyday basis lol!!

 I plan on putting together a little porfolio of my golf as she evolves from the stadard car into my personal love  :drool:  so will have to post it up when i get it finished =)

 Anyway ill stop going on now and just say Great site and am very happy to be a part of it!!

 Cheers
          Tom!

Well its dead standard at the moment but ive got a few thing i am going to do to it over time including some of the following:
Lowered 20 or 40 mm on 18's   (what do you guys think as far as how low and what wheels to get? i much prefer stylish to chavy)
Front mounted intercooler, induction kit, panel filter
Im going to take her up to R-tech to have a re-map
Some internal changes, vents, gear / handbrake gaitors, get rid of the wood effect =)
HID's and a badgeless front grill, tint the windows out, maybe put the r32 bumpers / exhaust on ,  unsure yet.

Once thats all done then have a look and see what else i want doing. I dont want to go over the top, just make it my own kind of thing =)

BBS wheels look the nuts but aint cheap. You can go 40mm on 18's but may need upratted anti roll bars. Miltek are definatly the way to go for exhausts. I had the Forge turbo pipe fitted a couple of weeks ago made a big improvement.  :cool:
