Vanilla GTI

(1/1)

MKVASMR:
Made a lot of posts and never actually introduced my GTI. Got it in November last year. It’s a 2008 4door manual with little to no options which was my goal so I could work on it myself.
















First I went to solve some mechanical ⚙️ stuff before I went into any upgrades.
Did the cam chain, timing belt and the thermostat and changed all of the fluids.















At this point I had the car remapped but I wasn’t happy with the tune so I’m going to get a custom tune in the next couple of weeks.
I’m planning on keeping the car OEM + and keeping it forever!

MKVASMR:

Wanted to go down the Michelin path but I managed to get a set of Dunlop Sportmax tyres for really cheap and couldn’t pass the opportunity so took those and got a full alignment



MKVASMR:



Bought a set of Depo headlights, happy how they look, not so happy about the light output. Will be going down the OEM BiXenon route next year

MKVASMR:
Just did a remap. Not sure if I should be happy, but it was a really hot day.
