Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • QLD mk2 Golf GTI 8v

    Hey all,

    I'm selling my mk2 Golf GTI as I never have time to drive it, and am now selling both my cars to fund one fun daily driver. The Golf was bought as a project to build up into a track car, however it's only been to the track once (will be going again 15th December if you want to check it out).

    Details:

    1991 Golf GTI
    275,000km's
    4 Door
    Silver
    8v Motor

    Price: $3,900 with roadworthy
    Rego runs out end of December.
    Contact: Via PM

    I have spent a lot on this car, here are some of the highlights:

    Slotted discs front and rear
    Redstuff brake pads front and rear
    FK Silverline X Coilovers
    Braided lines front
    Timing belt and tensioner just replaced
    Momo steering wheel
    Advan AO48 semi slicks (done 2,000km's)
    Autech short shifter
    New windscreen, battery, fuel filter, plus, leads, ecu, gear shift parts

    And main parts replaced:

    * Spark plug, Bosch 4477, $23
    * Dipstick $3
    * Dipstick funnel $1.66
    * Fuel filter $12.25
    * Aero Wiper blade assembly x 2 $30
    * Bushing, throttle cable $2.75
    * Upper strut mount x2 $24.40
    * Bosch Ignition Wire set $45
    * 256mm slotted discs $120
    * 226mm slotted discs $105
    * Redstuff fronts $80
    * Redstuff rear $70
    * FK Silverline X Coilovers $1150
    * Brake fluid dot4 $9
    * Battery cradle + hold downs $20
    * Rear wheel bearings $30
    * Front wheel bearings $60
    * Momo Monte Carlo $190
    * Momo hub adapter $110
    * Yokohama A048 Semi Slicks $996
    * Windscreen $245
    * ECU $105
    * Battery $143
    * Coolant hoses/sensors/etc $170
    * Braided brake lines $72
    * PCV Parts $83
    * Magnetic sump plug $10
    * Rocker cover gasket $15
    * Timing belt/tensioner replaced $315
    * New side skirt $200
    * Autotec short shift kit $54
    * Shift linkage kit $50
    * K&N Filter $46
    * Synthetic trans oil $38

    So basically I've replaced everything that moves on the car, and now it drives well. All the rubber pipes in the engine bay, cooling related bits, etc etc.

    The bad:

    - It's a 21 year old car so it's a bit rough sometimes, but I've driven it on a VW cruise for 5 hours straight and it was perfect
    - Aircon doesn't work - might need regassing?
    - No stereo

    Thanks,

            A few interior pics as they keep getting requested, note the small rip in driver's leg bolster, new momo wheel, otherwise perfect interior:
