Hi,

I'm new to the forum after a recommendation on fb.

Looking forward to seeing all the epic builds on here.

I picked up this little beauty last year and have spent the last year getting it running correctly and replacing loads of bits n peices.

There was just something so appealing about it, not just the fact it sounds like a fighter jet but the little touches just sold it for me :)

A little bit about the car:

2.8 supercharged vr6 with 65k miles on it

Jon bois old interior which is unreal, I would quite happily have these seats in my longer rather than my sofas haha.

Mint 3pce splits with stainless dishes

And loads more

It's running at about 280bhp which is plenty bhp for me lol

Here's some pics and I will update as I go but I will be mostly spending my money on fuel as this noise is addictive!

Had some running issues and over heating issues so replaced the water pump, temp sensor, thermostat, fans, engine mounts, rebuilt the super charger, new sump and the list goes on and on.

One best mk3 golf at show and glow which was amazing after all the work I put in to the car to get it driving well.

Prep work before the show at HavAir Hq.

I have literally just dropped the car off at HavAir for my air ride to be fitted and the following paint work:

Smooth front bumper light out

Smooth off the side repeaters

Fit two new wings

Oaint rear quarters

New windows

Heres a rubbish p'shop to show what the front end will look like

Can't wait to get it back from them!

It's inside at Ultinate Dubs so will see you all there :)
