What have you done to your mk4 (golf/bora) today?

[jnrm3]

Hey guys, just wondering if anyone is considering a Frankenturbo + tune upgrade; I'm looking to develop a bang for buck Stage 3 package for the Mk 4 GTI and would like a volunteer or two with discount incentives for your time.

Please see this thread here and of course visit FrankenTurbo Home to see what the fuss is all about. =)

I might be keen but would you rather something that has had basic upgrades or is standard fine? cheers steve

this worries me as i have some et45 18x8 +20mm h&r spacers i'll be putting in next week.. looks like a lot of poke, something i dont want.
whats the tyre size?

Tyre size is 235/40/18.

I've fitted every thing this morning with 15mm spacers front and 20mm rear still not happy with look poke out to much back sits ok but front is problem. I'll post some pics for you to look at but I think I'll sell em and buy Aristos.

Apart from wheel issue fitted r32 front brakes and fitted the r32 exhaust only thing needed to fit exhaust was lengthen the pipe by 30mm and fitted new clamp also the rear tips will need to be lengthened to sit in bar.

only counts with pics!!

The pictures can do the explaining.



Took a good 45minutes to get this one out. (obligatory flip of the bird)


Glorious difference, was a pain to get the spring compressor out to put new strut top stuff in but we got it sorted pretty quick.


Before


After





Edit: Need to raise the fronts about 2cms but everything else is spot on, no rubbing or knocking at all

Look forward to seeing pics of this once it's fitted - are you going to run it standard or do the flapper mod so it's open all the time?

Not sure yet once the tips are lengthened I'll try it stock then do mod and see difference.

Dan - bora looks great! How's the ride??
Undisclosed - thanks for the info. Tyres on mine are 225 40 and they seem to look a tiny bit stretched (probably just the tyre design) so I should be fine. Pretty low. About 1 finger gap arch to tyre on 17's.

Not sure if it was just the fisheye but the before pic was serious 4x4 lol
