Not many pics I'm afraid, but here is my 07 GTi, bought with the following mods already on
- lowered (how much and who by is currently unknown)
- 18" BBS LM reps
- Blueflame exhaust
- Pipercross Induction
- Some 'VW RACING' black calipers that look brand new. At I guess I think these are VWR calipers on standard discs, but not sure.
All of the above set me back £9.3k, car seems a decent spec, tartan, dsg, puddle lights, Auto lights and wipers and reverse sensors. I really wanted a car that wasn't black/dark coloured, needed a five door and like the retro black plastic bumper and tartan.
Since owning it, I've replaced the tensioner and swapped the inlet cam for an S3/Eddy item as the standard one was pretty worn. I've also added a Pioneer AVH2500BT, which was my first introduction to CANBUS and the infamous permanent live. Few adaptors later, lots of swearing, one broken trim removal tool its now in, with ipod connector routed to where the fag light lives. Just need a neat solution on where my ipod lives in transit now.
Plans are to sort the power out. I've just come from a stage 2+ Focus ST and the GTi feels comically slow after that. I'm lucky enough to live close to both Stattler and JBS/Custom Code and a friend knows Niki from RTech reasonably well, so i'm a bit spoiled for choice tuning wise. I ultimately want to end up between 330 and 350hp, as in my experience this is the most you can use sensibly on the road. Our first child is due on 1st May though, so plans are on hold for a while.
Anyway. Pics!
And my other Dub!
For anyone thats interested, here is my previous Focus ST, as well as my Polo I had about 10 years ago.
