Hello form not so sunny Southampton
« on: July 20, 2012, 01:29:38 pm »
Howdy chaps, I'm Jason from Southampton and I have just come across this site.
I have a GT TDI 54plate and ive had it for just over a year to replace my mk1 Focus RS. It was quite a change :) Really loving the build quality and reliability, its on 130k and still feels great. I think im gonna get the clutch done soon just as a precaution and get a re-map whilst im at it. Id like some GTI or R32 brakes and some coilovers at some point to tighten things up.

This is the day i got it.


This is the day after, The brakes arnt quite as good as the RS ones  :driver:

I got it all fixed and its been great since. So much so, im thinking of getting another for the Mrs :)

Welcome to the forum Jason.   :drinking:

 Giving it a bit too much of the loud pedal were you? Give the misses the soot chucker and get yourself  Mk5 with a K04 in it  :evilgrin:

Check out this thread for a really good brake set up.
