Ive had one of your pictures as my iPhone screen saver for a few months now.

Here's a slightly better one from those shots. I set the camera to continually take shots as they drove by. This one's lined up a bit better.

Great shots!!


Looks very GTI(ish) front end which I like, never been overly keen on the R32 front end.

Very nice,
Don't actually see that many R32s in the gunmetal grey.
What have you done to it, and what are your plans?

Mate is think this is the best looking R32 i've seen  :surprised:

I think Steel Grey is perhaps the best colour for VW & Porsches...

You have the stance perfect as well ! :love:

Just been talking about the Capristo zorst to somebody on here with more money than sense. Are you saying that the GTI has one fitted or the R 32.  :happy2:

Yes. They're stupidly expensive. His R32 has the Capristo. They don't make one for the GTI, although were apparently considering it.

I'm happy with my exhaust sound from the exterior. Booms a bit inside though, and cancels some of my sub notes. I'm looking to do an electronic butterfly valve to help when just cruising around. But I'm not dropping large amounts of cash into it. Just enough to do the job right.

Yeh, you have confirmed what i thought, that they dont do one for the GTI.

Also i wouldn't be happy with a boomy sound inside the cabin considering the price of them Beauty's

It's the one on my GTI that is boomy (at 3K), not the Capristo.

The Capristo sounded fine when I was a passenger, but we were just rolling around this complex lining the car up for shooting. It sounds amazing from the outside though. But is that sound worth that kind of coin?!? I've said if you do something like the Capristo, I'd hope you're planning to supercharge or (twin)turbo it.
