[japtaxi]

You should'v brought your gti to that show.. there was no mkIV 1.8t in sight!

www.vwvortex.com

(then go to forums, then to regional, then to australian)

do you really have a golf? didnt you used to have a 32?

[Oz]

Nice pics Mr Taxi man there some nice BMs in there, love the blue golf (is it??) with the twin SU's on it

[japtaxi]

oz, it looked like a blue wagon maybe based either on golf or passat platform?? :confused: I have the injected motor in fwd config in my pos golf

neogt-25, yeah i lurk on vwvortex only in the mkIII body section my mkIII cl is one of my day cars.. pos 32 only get driven once in a while.

[strutto]

M3 CSL... :drooling:

[Guest neoGT-25]

better than the CSL is that black M3 with the plates SPEAK, its 430kw at the flywheel

japtaxi: you should go to the aussie part of the vortex site, come on a cruise with us dubbers

[japtaxi]

any more info on what that black m3 csl has done? Engine bay is identical to normal m3 csl except the brakes and harness for driver and passenger seats. godamn richfarts with too much $$$

[Guest neoGT-25]

it isent a CSL unfortunatly

It has 19" CSL wheels but, it also has adjustable (group A Touring car) suspension... and i think a roll cage? and those things to tow you and i guess the tyres... semi slicks... its so beautiful

From the front if u take the VW badge out it looks sorta like a alfa GTV :nowigetit

but yeah it looks sorta like a fast back too so could be a passat

i want a silvia

[unwritten law]

I dig the R32 VW..... 32's are cool

[Guest neoGT-25]

how did u know that :Paranoid:

I use to work for austral VW/MG/Rover & we did ge the odd audi in lol :elaugh:

got to love the RV5boars fly by wire system try to throw em through a corner & start to lose grip & the car stops accelerating even when ur foot is flat to the floor mad little cars I would have one just would not like to pay for the soervicing when I waas there it was around $96 a hour in labour fees

[japtaxi]

I got charged an arm and leg when my pos golf got serviced once at austral (yeah i know shouldnt goto dealer service centurd )

neo I want to know whats the fastest 1/4m time any golf in qld or australia has ever done with any vw engines? I'v only seen rice mk4 1.8t thats slow as(couldnt spool the bigger turbo), and all these bone stock "still under factory warranty" golf r32, no real fast vr6 either..

[Oz]

I remember one little GTi golf we had in it was black with BIG & I MEAN BIG chromes under it 19" had a 3"inch zorst with custom exhust manifold & I think it was a bigish turbo 2 fifteens squashed into the trunk & riced up to the max lol was a sweet little car & went well too was funny trying to get it under way with light throttle

I think it would of been about mid 80s model the older ones with the twin round head lamps on the front

[Guest neoGT-25]

in Aus theres not many fast golfs, the fastest i heard of was the MTM Golf from sydney (TCCA Motorsport > http://www.tccamotorsport.com.au/ )... (its power figures wernt that amazing, but for a golf, they are pretty good)

links to articles about it here:

VW Golf GTI - The Golf (England) Apr 2001

VW Golf GTI - Hot 4s Jan 2000

VW Golf GTI - Street Heat Nov 1999

these articles are pretty old now so i dont know whats the fastest golf in aus any more!

my plans involve...

APR Chip

K04 Turbo

Schrick cam

3" Turbo-Back exhaust system

Custom FMIC

Bigger brakes

Bilstein or H&R suspension

Bosch fuel pump

GFB Stealth FX bov

17" BBS wheels

Reiger body kit

black leather retrim

some other stuff too! it wouldent be as quick as a skyline, but meh, they are like go karts when you put suspension on these things! i love my standard recaros too hehe

and oz, it would have been a MKII GTI (with the smaller lights on the inside of the larger ones)

theres quite a few MKI/MKII golfs getting around! rare as hell but! i saw one a while back at willowbank (MKI) with a 12A in it... i think it was a 12A :confused:

anyway, it did a 13... i wish they were rwd the only thing i hate about my car!
