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 :P

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

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 :P 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!

      R32 Gtst - Track Car

      Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
