Thanks mate, followed your thread how come your changing down to a k03 gti?
--- End quote ---
Glad my old build thread gave you ideas :happy2: I sold my eddy a few months back and bought something cheap to run around in as were buying our first house but now I want a mk5 again and if I bought a ed30 again I'd compare it to much to the old revo one so I'll build a k03 gti this time round :innocent:
What's next for this mate ?

You did have a lovely eddy mate gutted to see it go. I'm always looking at them to buy but the value for money with a k03 gti and the same situation with looking for our first house I need to keep mine!
Next up some coilovers as I think my front shocks are ready then more power stage 2+.
Good luck with finding the right Gti jake will you be modding or trying to hold back?!

Yeah it's a bitch wanting something but can't have it isn't lol :laugh: car will be sweet man what Coilovers are you looking at, have you thought about springs and shocks?
I will be modding :evil: but no where near the cash I spent on the eddy. Not sure what level I'll go to though
--- End quote ---
It is mate I'm hoping to own one at some point but for now up keep adding bits to mine so I don't get bored! I was looking at Fk ak streets but I will look for some springs and dampers first. When are you planning to get one?

Bilstein dampers are meant to be very highly rated with H&R springs or eibach springs mate :happy2: I have found a fully loaded gti with a few silly mod's that I will take of and sell like dished wheels and other bits that ain't my thing but I need to sell my civic first. I had 2 time wasters Sunday and 1 on Saturday so fingers crossed for 4th time lucky because then I can go get my ass back in a gti :evil:

I'm gonna go for bilstein dampers I've decided, I will try them on my current springs as they've only done around 1000miles but i don't want to put to much stress on the dampers with 55mm springs!
Are you going for a dsg or manual this time? And another black one?! I always wish I'd bought a steel grey gti but I got the right spec for the right price with the reflex.
I hate time wasters good luck selling the civic mate.

Good choice mate :happy2: what springs are they at -55?. Dsg mate saves all that £1M clutch nonsense, plus I've always fancied dsg at some point. Little_dave's s3 took me out for a quick spin to MaccyD's and the gear change was unreal. Yeah that's what I'm going on, best spec and price instead of just plain spec and red for example. Just hpi'd the gti and it's got outstanding finance on it.

The springs are called LO, i had an 07 r32 Dsg last year and I do wish I had it now! So easy to live with and the noise was addictive! That's a shame did the owner not advertise it or expecting you not to know about it? Looking forward to seeing what you choose.
Arnt you gonna miss the performance of the eddy though?

Front shocks give up ? ... Still watching these springs on my ebay ... Other mods keep coming first though haha ... Looking good on the track !
