Title: Candy White Edition30
Post by: craigy123 on June 02, 2010, 12:16:58 am
Well had this a couple of weeks now so thought i would post up a few pics and start a members ride thread just incase i get the urge to mod it   :party: ..........i absolutely love it   :jumpmove:  its just done over 10,000 miles and its cleaner than clean, which is exactly what i was after.
Its had a few wee mods so far, GIAC adjustable re-map, forge intake/ filter and a Remus back box. Sitting around 315bhp and goes like a train   :evilgrin:
Plans are a TB blueflame system and a set of eibach sportline springs, maybe some ARB's too and uprated mounts at somepoint.
Anyway a few pics, will get better more detailed ones up soon

i decided to take my Edition30 off the road for winter, the roads around where i live aint the best in the snow, so bought a second hand carcoon to keep her clean and fresh over the winter months in the garage, so shes now looking like this.............
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fo233%2Fcraigyboy_01%2F612.jpg&hash=37d4b560c731b6c80f1ec8d2e1c61e96edc43f23)

so to get me over the winter months, i bought a run about, cost me £400 with 6 months MOT and tax, bargain, to say its a different drive is an understatement!!!

1.6 8v, slower than a week in jail!! but in all fairness a clean car for nearly 16 years old, and only 81k, EW, ES, AC and pretty comfy  :grin: :grin:

Ive never chuckled as much for a long time looking at that picture :signLOL: :signLOL:

My wife has just said, you must be a single man to have bought that Giant Airbag!!! instead of using the same car just to keep it clean!!.

I would never hear the end of it, if i went and brought one aswell :signLOL:

Have to say, thats such a good idea  :happy2:

I feel a forum group buy coming!

Saint Steve, you wife would be correct. Single man indeed, well not married. My girlfriend thinks I'm off my head not driving it, but she understands my love for keeping it clean and away from damage.  :laugh:  

These things are not cheap new, over £300-400 I think from carcoon. http://www.carcoon.co.uk/carcoons/products-order-eu.asp

Nah Keith, I'll let it develop, give it's that kinda sporty sound, haha on second thoughts maybe not aye?

Saint Steve, you wife would be correct. Single man indeed, well not married. My girlfriend thinks I'm off my head not driving it, but she understands my love for keeping it clean and away from damage.  :laugh:

Ive taken the golf off the road for winter again this year, so i bought a wee 6n polo valver. So gave the wee polo a clean today and forgot my camera  :slapped: , so excuse the crap pictures from my iphone. Just gave it a quick wash, then a spray with some duragloss spray detailer and dressed the tyres. Also gave the interior a good clean as its been sitting for a wee while. Its got FK coilovers, G60 brakes with green stuff pads, a de-badged FK grille and a few other wee bits and bobs, a great wee winter car.

Looks to have reacted well to the detail.

To be honest, it needs correction detail to remove some deeper scratches and swirling. It had been sitting for around 4 years doing nowt. So when I got it it was absolutely hanging!  :grin: While its was off the road it got a full re-build after a snapped belt. 4 brand new yokohamma a539's, brand new g60 calipers and green stuff pads and brake shoes on the back. And brand new fk coil overs, that's hadn't turned a wheel, aswell as a refurb on the alloys. A good wee buy that just needs some tlc. I might actually keep this as a second car. It goes pretty well for a 1.4 and handles like a go-kart  :scared:

Great car there Craig! I love the 2 litre TSFI engine vw make. I used to have a purple s3 heavily modified by MTM and looking at this has made my day. Any plans for upgrading the fuel pump and have you thought about wrapping the induction pipe in heat sheiding tape. I'm fussy about heat soak  :confused:

Ive got a autotech HPFP on at the moment. Going to hopefully get a few things done to the car this winter, Eibach sportlines for a start then fit the BSH catch can ive had sitting for a while and a few other wee bits. Tempted to buy a second set of Pescaras for a colour change, possibly black or a anthracite grey. Also considering changing the software to Revo from GIAC.

Also got a few parts to go on the golf

Genuine open fogs
3" de-cat BCS downpipe to mate up with 3" blueflame
BSH catch can
Eibach sportlines
Pressed plates
Edition 30 badge for grille

Can't wait, also going revo stage 2+  :pomppomp:

Had some spare time tonight, so took the golf down to my unit to give it a clean and put on my new pressed plates and edition30 badge for the grille. Used the werkstat acrylic kit, can't beat this on white in my eyes. Pics aren't the greatest, but you get the idea.

It will be getting a proper detail before going back on the road properly, as the finish could be better. So will set aside a few days for that.

Next up will be to get the wheels painted a little darker and fit the sportlines.

#00 grade wire wool and race glaze metal polish, as I'd let them slip a little. Normally just the metal polish and a microfiber. Depends how bad yours are?

So with winter upon us, I decided again this year to get a winter car. Since my edition 30 had never been on the road with salt or snow since it was new.

This years winter hack a wee Jimny to get me through the winter in Scotland. Picked it up at the start of November and the golf has been off the road tucked up since. Its a T reg 1.3 16valve with 93 k on the clock, years tax and MOT  :laugh:  Perfect

Small update. Change the screen wash and coolant cap from blue to black thanks to Alex at AKS

Excuse the dirty bay pics, I'm needing to give it a good going over for getting it back out after winter. Plenty of time for that

Before

Fink I'm going black with my wheels ! It's a shame because my wheels have blemish free factory paint and it seems a waste to recon a perfect set of wheels, that's why it's not done already.

And while the car is off the road I thought it was time to get the wheels painted, there was one small kerb mark on a front (from previous owner  :wink:) which has always annoyed and and the rears had a few stone chips. Apart from that they are mint and original.

So while the pescaras are off, got a shot of some Leon 17" wheels for it to sit on

JESUS  :ashamed: at least it's tucked up in the garage  :grin:

Also just ordered a full BCS power valve system with 100 cell cat and got a WALK kit to get fitted and some R8 coilpacks. Then it's front pads and MOT time in march.

They are painted. Never been a fan of powder coat finishes. My mate with his own body shop painted them for me. He's done an awesome job.

Thanks for the comments guys.

Awesome colour on the wheels looks spot on against the Candy White, I too had some alloys on a previous car painted instead of powdercoated with excellent results! They where very durable to and never chipped in the 10 months I had them on the car, I dont know what paint code they where but the colour was Porsche Titanium Grey.

Fine looking ED30 you have!

Cheers Simon

I'd be keeping the sports cat to much hassle to keep changing the decat out for mots,

Awesome just driving about town normal and normal driving. But as soon as you floor it and it comes on boost it sounds wild. Just as loud as the blueflame with de-cat I'd say
