Jay's Golf Coupe "racek0r" project
Dave J:
Great looking 'rocco Jay - looks to be in great condition - would never have guessed the miles on it!
Look forward to your future progress on the car :smiley:
J400uk:
Looks great, nice choice! Incidentally I'm also in the process of changing my GTI for a diesel due to increased work mileage and these are on my radar...
How are you finding the Manual after having a DSG?
DamoP:

It's going to be very different to my GTI.. :innocent:

Cheers dude. Same here. Not sure what I'm doing exactly with it yet...

I'll be following this closely to see how unfolds, shame you couldn't transfer the air equipment straight across.

I only paid £8k for it as well hahaha :P
All the bits would transfer but I don't want another bagged car.

(looks a lovely spec in all honesty dude, look forward to seeing it develop. I think you'll agree in time that engine is one of the best all rounders on the market today :happy2: I'm 25k miles in and it's very well rounded)

:signLOL: :signLOL: I was never scene anyway, I'm not a prettyboy and I don't wear chinos. I'm fat and eat a lot of cake. :fighting2: :fighting2:
I do really like it, much better than I did my GTI when I first got that... got a feeling I'll keep this for a while.

Rising blue, a lovely colour... like Mandys except this has swirls on it haha :ashamed:

Exactly! That's a good thing, there are a few little marks but nothing serious.. and nothing easily rectifiable.

How are you finding the Manual after having a DSG?
--- End quote ---
I drove my partners car from time to time and moving cars about at the unit I never really lost the feeling of a manual. It's nice though.. having something for your leg to do and something hard to wiggle in your hand.

No, I could afford it but the Golf isn't nice enough to warrant being a full on show car; and I did have to refinance to buy the Scirocco (as it was so cheap) and I'd quite like to not have the debt over my head :signLOL: :signLOL: so it's being split & sold to recoup the cost :happy2:
Currently for the Scirocco I have the following sat about ready to be fitted early October...
- H&R Springs
- Powerflex front wishbone bushes
- Superpro Ball Joints
- Recaro Buckets
- Audio build (Rockford Fosgate sub, Hertz ESK163L speakers, sound deadening)
And once my Air Ride has sold, I'll be getting TTRS/DB9 calipers, with 340mm J Hooked Discs and braided lines (or an alternate big brake setup).
It's also booked into Darkside Developments on the 21st of November...

Nice car for the money.......but do tell, what's it going to Darkside for?
TTRS/DB9 brakes......great set up but if I were to do it again I'd buy standard pads for normal day 2 day!
