    Because it couldn't put the power down, it wasn't fun at all.

    Ya defs agree, but spend a bit on suspension and you should be able to handle a bit of power.

    YUP SO TRUE! get some coilovers, keep backend abit stiffer to put more pressure on front wheels. also if i do have a problem with traction, i would just run a 2 stage boost controller.....

    thats also an option.....

    after being sleep deprived and hungry, i did a random bid on ebay and now ended up with the below rims.
    since i accidentally bought this and i decided to look on google to see if it looks any good on our mk2. after much um and ahhhin, i have decided to get these rims in and paint the centres black and polish the lips/dish.

    boys give me your thoughts on this and if anyone could do a photoshop on to a red golf would be much appreciated!

    They look similar to Borbet T, IMO it looks super cool and easier to clean. Who want to clean BBS RS every week
