hi everyone,im Craig and id like to introduce myself and my car. ive owned the car for around 3 1/2yrs now and its seen many different guises as in the title but heres a few pics to give you an idea but sadly ive lost the pictures of it as a standard car so ill strat with my earliest

this is before edition 38 3yrs ago.

Hi Craig

Welcome

Looks nice.

Take it you went away from the scene life and went for some performance? From the title. only ask as I am planning on doing the same  :signLOL:

welcome to the forum craig-  nice golf :notworthy:

My golf on s-lines





Then grey rotiform blq's



Then a set of 3 piece rotiform blq's





This is where being scene ended and I decided to strip the car and go for a performanced based car, it started subtle but as in the title it's on the verge of being mean so keep looking

I decided to k04 it so I began to get all the hardware













Now for the transmission















Now for the braking some Vw racing 6 pots





The engine bay



Now I needed some coil overs with camber adjustment etc and I'd heard good things about these for the money so I got these





Then after getting a very capable k04'ed car I had an engine problem. Resulting it is neededinh to be rebuilt so this it where I decided to take it up a level.

I brought a bigger td06 turbo with rs4 injectors







Then I decided that the only way to benefit from a bigger turbo was to build a forged engine

Carrillo pistons






Zrp conrods



Super tech titanium valve terrain








Now with a forged motor in the pipe line with an excess of 500bhp I then decided 2wd isn't good enough so I began to get the 4wd running gear.















So with my car with no engine I decided to do some mods on the chassis

Customs front strut mounts





Now for the read end to accommodate the rear diff but first I needed to remove a few obstructions
 





And I'm left with this


Finally I can start to alter the rear


Solid plate welded in with strengthening box section underneath




Now to chop out for the secondary in tank fuel pump


Now all the fabrication and altering is done I can now start to build it back, new Quattro fuel tank with s3 in tank pumps


Before I could install the tank I needed to alter the o/s/f rear brake line as its routed different via the rear axle


Quattro tank in


Rear diff ready to go in.


Rear diff in




No I needed to build the axle by installing my brakes and shocks




I've thinned the pics down so you get the general idea but my aim is to make a 4wd 500bhp gti and hopefully I'll have the car fully built and starting the running in process within the next 6 weeks but ill keep this updated. Thanks for reading
