After owning my Bora TDi for a few months I got bored of the diesel & decided I wanted a GTI, So I sold it & went & after a few days of hard looking I bought a 51 plate 5 door silver GTi.

Do from this



To this



















Only owned it for just over a week & I have got a set of wheels sorted for it already



Also won an Anni rear valance on ebay (just need to pick it up), Bought a set of Anni rep side skirts the other day, Should have the skirts & rear valance painted this weekend

looking good m8 get it sorted then you can sell that one too lol

Cheer's Pal! What makes you say that? :whistle:

Surprised you have kept the scoob for so long :thumb:

nice motor pal, like your mk4s then?

Well I've had the 2.0 GTi, The 1.8 non turbo 20 valve GTi so thought it would be rude not to get the 1.8 Turbo GTi :lol:

So...

Bora Vents
De walnutting the interior.
Recaros
Remap
aero wipers

Most of the stuff you did to t'bora? :blush:

Nope, Its having the walnut left in because its the dark one so it looks ok, If I find any bora vents in the breakers ill just end up selling them,

It will however have Aero front & rear wipers, Black grill, Anni rear & side skirts, New Alloys, Slightly lower, Then eventually a set of recaro's

Very nice, can't wait to see it with those wheels on. :coolio:

been looking round :whistle: :whistle: :thumb:

:thumb: very nice

Nice car mate another silver golf in middleton greattttttttttt haha.... :rofl:

Just need to find a Anni front valance for a good price now & sort the small running issue out & then ill be happy :thumb:

Had the Forge Spit-R Dumpvalve fitted Today as my OEM one was knackered & loosing boost alot, Feels better to drive already, Just got to bypass the N249 Valve now & then should be running perfect :thumb:

did adam not do it for ya m8

No he fitted the DV but didnt have any jubilee clips small enough for the vac hose so he didnt want to mess up.

dont need jubilee clips they are vac pipes they suck not blow lol

Ill do it at work tomorrow, Was going to have the DV running in full recerc mode, Let Leeanne listen to it :no: But once bonnet was down you couldnt really hear it so all was ok :lol:

Really? What is that big pipe connected to? Boost pipe :tongue:

Just thought I would take a couple of pics of my current wheels.





Now for a bit of a progres update. Managed to get my Anni style rear valance painted & fitted today





Then when I finished work tonight I was in the mood for a bit more modding so ended up doing this.





Then the final thing was to get it looking like this



Sat a bit high when it came off the ramp



But once outside I was a bit more pleased with it









Just need an Anni style front spoiler and roof spoiler to finish the look off

Very nice.. id love a 3dr turbo..

Nah 5 door is more practical :thumb:

looks shit hot m8
cant see problem with old wheels lol

Cheers m8 :thumb:

Only god thing about the old wheels were the excellent tread on the tyres :lol:

De-Badge it tomorrow, Also got a 57 plate Polo in work that might kindly "Donate" its rear wiper :whistle: Then need the front valance to match.

Who needs practicality? lol i have a child and still dont like 5 doors (its only cos the mrs owns one that i have to drive it!)

Looking very nice indeed. :thumb:

Had a little De-badging session today

time for a remap

Thats way down the list of things to do. Anni front valance will hopefully be next

With a little help from a member off another forum I have just done this

OOooohh! miles 'til empty? :D

Yeah & illuminated needles :thumb:

Looking good Chris,get it mapped :thumb:

Really am thinking about having it done, But just a couple of little issues to look into first.

At the moment it seems to be miss firing & running rough in the mornings & after its been stood for some time. Also sounds quite loud when I start it from cold but after about 30 seconds it all stops & runs very quiet

Secondary air pump making the noise?

Not got a clue, but does sound quite loud, When it comes off choke it makes a sort of whirring noise then ticks over quietly

like a hoover? Secondary Air pump is on for 30-60 seconds after starting from cold. :D

Thats the noise then!

Any idea of the missfiring then?

Start with a throttle body clean.

Figured out today that if I leave it running & dont drive it until it stops making the noise & my revs drop it then runs perfectly :confused:

Secondary air pump Chris,they warm up your engine faster,it will be leaking hence the noise.There is a guide to fixing it over on ukmkivs
