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

[kendog]

Really.. How much? Got a link to where you got it?

I've always wondered about those, seems ridiculous that you have to pay for this 'one trick pony', and that it's not just an option you can toggle with a basic VCDS/Vagcom etc...

Cheers.

Been a while since I've posted on here but I've still got the old golf. Goanna be doing a TT lca, spindle, steering rack and sway bar swap. And I've almost got all the parts I need to convert to me7. 5 engine management.

Holy moly you were unable to sell your car for 10k?

I actually had it sold, was about ten minutes from leaving the house to give him the car when I realised I couldn't do it. This car, like an aggressive cancerous tumour, has become quite attached to me and I to it.

It is also now the 2nd mk4 gti in Australia (that I know of) to be running me7. 5 engine management!!

Wow amazing! The amount of work you have put into that car has been phenomenal. Great to see you have kept it.

Was it a hard task to swap over to the me 7.5?

So how much was the deal for ?
Just out of interest, as 10K is about twice the going rate for a normal Mk4 GTI.

I had a few offers around the $8k range was going sell it for $9k. I like to think it's a bit more special than a normal mk4.

Me7. 5 was actually pretty simple. I had and auto loom so I had to re-use my old speed sensor but the connections where the engine loom meets the main loom was all plug and play. The only real issue is the physical mounting of the dBW throttle pedal, you have to pretty much make your own bracket but it's not that tough, also threading the o2 sensor harness through the side of the Subframe is a bitch.
Anybody looking to put a bigger than k04 turbo on their agu should definitely plan to do this mod as well.

Yeh it's just not any normal mk4. I could only speculate as to how much cash Carlos has spent on his car. But just from the mild mods I have done on my car, 10k was an insane deal for people who appreciated the mods that he had on his car. 9k is just crazy. But i guess this this is the market for mk4s. Read his build thread of you get a chance, quite a write up.

Yep i know the car and the man.
I bought his old shocks and springs for my gti years ago.
