xs2man's Mk5 GTI Edition 30...
S800BRN:
As said on Eastside - looks a tidy example.
Handy to have gotten one with some mods already done.
Solid sounding plans, too!
Shoduchi:
Seems like a very well cared after motor! Good luck with it and hope you can enjoy it a lot! :drinking:
I'd do brakes and suspension with anti-roll bars included. I fitted H&R 26/22 mm with soft setting at the front and hard setting at the rear. Most here seem to prefer stronger bars and chose the 28/24 mm version. I don't know how are the stronger bars so I really can't compare. I use it as a daily and I'm not aiming at a full track car. :smiley:

Yeah, already having the exhaust, intake and springs were a big selling point to me, as I never intended to keep it standard anyway.

Yeah, wasn't sure which bars to go for. It's not a daily driver for me, but then I will be unlikely to track it either. I just want it sorted for when I want to play really. Probably go for similar to what your saying anyway.
Wasn't planning to do the shocks either, but ECP appear to do B8's at what looks like an incredibly competitive price. I may just have to do them too. Probably needing done anyway.

Congrats look like a very nice Ed30, if you don't mind me asking did you buy it via dealer or was it a private sale.

It was a private sale. Wasn't advertised anywhere, as far as I know, one local car forum.
