The Incognito GTI

[ryana89]

So I finally gave in and bought a more 'dailyable' Golf,
Meet the incognito MK4 (and its MK2 grandad)



Previous owners have put on,

Full Miltek turbo back system
Stage 1 tune
Whatever the numerical name is for the better diverter valve
A couple of R32 bits here and there
And some minor de-badging

Plans for the time being is to sort out RWC and Rego, which includes the rather obvious oil leak, and maybe some metal bashing where its been jacked in the wrong spots.

Remember kids, rubber grommets aren't lifting points!

must have watched that video on ECStuning for the lift rubbers but never purchased them? lol
looks like it should be a good starting point!
Is it missing the front lower lip?

Is it missing the front lower lip?

Yes, good eye.
It supposedly 'improves' intercooler air flow...

[blackers10]

I had a previous owner of my old cressida, he found the car overheating.. so cut the whole lower part of the bumper off...
turns out the thermo fan had a faulty connection inside the motor which would make it stop working intermittently..
idiots :'(
glad you found it before it was ruined completely!

The intercooler is on the side though haha. looks like a good base, a bit of tlc and she'll be good as new! Where's it leaking oil?

Looks tidy, I am thinking PS fluid leak. Unless the intercooler has over flowed?

[ryana89]

Not sure on the 'smic get more flow by removing a body panel that doesn't block air' logic......lower lip is on the list.

Changed oil/filter last week on a drive on car ramp, and the leak appears to somewhere on the back of the engine (its dripped onto the tranny output shaft and flung oil everywhere)

It'll be in a hangar on jacks ASAP to sort the funny business out.

already has some subtle things like r32 wheels, black indicators and badge
