    show us your mk4 (golf/bora)

    alright, so many mk4 owners as of late and very little info on everyones vehicles!

    max 4 pics, from when you bought it, until now, background info on what bought with and what your plans are (realistic plans, not the oz-lotto $15mil you'll never win cuz i will.... lol)

    always good to share, so others get ideas and inspiration for their own rides (also known as the 2 minute noodle diet to get parts lol)
    What’s behind you doesn’t matter..

    Love that Black R32 mate.

    Most have probably seen these shots but they're all I've got. Here's the details of my sordid affair, from the early casual fling with a bigger set of.....wheels, to the full blown, wallet sapping mistress she is becoming.

    Seems innocent here:



    The face:



    The Ass:



    The Heart:



    The Details:
    20th Anniversary Body Kit
    R-Line Wheels
    KW Coilovers
    KW Front Anti Sway Bar
    Neuspeed Rear Adjustable Anti Sway Bar
    APR Tuned ECU
    APR Turbo Inlet Pipe
    APR Throttle Body Hose
    APR Turbo Back Stainless Exhaust
    APR Dog Bone
    EVOMS V-Flow Intake
    R32 Mats
    R32 Pedals + Dead Pedal

    Eventually I would like to get my Neuspeed lower intercooler pipe on somehow.

    Not sure about future plans, they just seem to pop into my head then I work on them but I've always wanted the car to be kept sort of OEM+ looking and not too rad.

    That reminds me, short term, a R32 steering wheel would be a nice addition straight up.

    And now:



    Car was stock as a rock when I purchased it. A fair bit has happened in the last 13 months...

    Mods to date:

    Engine:
    APR chip
    Neuspeed long ram CAI
    ABD Turbo intake pipe
    Neuspeed Pancake pipe replacement
    APR R1 Diverter valve
    3" Dump pipe
    200 cell high flow cat
    Remus rear box

    Suspension:
    KW V2 coilovers
    ECS Tuning bushings all round
    Whiteline Front and Rear sway bars
    TST rear stress brace
    Wiechers Sport Strut Brace

    Wheels/Tyres:
    19 x 8.5 BBS LM's Front
    19 x 10 BBS LM's Rear
    Falken 215/35/19
    Pirelli Pzero 245/35/19

    Styling/Accessories:
    .:R32 leather Konig bucket seats
    Neuspeed oil cap
    Neuspeed brake fluid cap
    Neuspeed power steering fluid cap
    Forge strut top caps
    Matte Silver interior trim
    White LED number plate lights
    Blue LED interior lights
    Hella colour magic red/crystal tail laps
    Crstal side indicators
    6k HID conversion
    Boser hood extension
    De-badged tailgate
    Badgless black grill

    Next lot of mods in the process:
    Tomorrow the FMIC gets done.

    Then:
    Pelequin LSD, ECS stage 1 clutch, K04-023, S3 exhaust manifold, S3 dump pipe, S3 injectors, 4 bar FPR, 3" MAF housing, Custom code tune

    After that is done, I'll be doing mainly asthetic mods to clean up the remainer of the car. Not too sure else what I want to do to it - I should be pretty happy once that's done.

    Likewise mate - your car looks so clean!

    I can't take credit for either of the shots. The photos were taken by Steve and John - my camera skills are about as good as my cooking skills (non existent).

    Thanks mate! CH's they are, got them dirt cheap as well, although thinking of going black with them what do other mk4ers think?
