EOI – VW Bora 4motion Turbo. Not your ordinary Bora!
Firstly why am I potentially putting the bora up for sale? Well I’m at a cross roads. My career and priorities at the moment mean the car spends 98% of the year locked in a shed gathering dust. Although I enjoy driving it when I get the chance I am seldom home to do so.
This car has been my pride and joy since 2008. I bought it stock as a rock with 90 something thousand KM on it and since it has undergone some substantial modifications. The car is truly one of a kind. No expense has been spared and I believe this is reflected in my build thread.
As all the details of the build are in there I will not delve too deep however a summary can be:
Bora 4motion
160xxx km
Running Garrett GT3076R making approx. 270AWKW @ 18psi
C2 Motorsports Stage 3 Tune
C2 Motorsports fuelling kit
ARP Head Studs and Rod Bolts
C2 Head Spacer
034 Motorsport Solid Engine Mounts
Walbro 255LPH Additional Fuel Pump
FMIC (well hidden)
MOCAL 19 Row Oil Cooler
Spec Stage 3+ Clutch and single mass flywheel
PB Brakes 356x32mm 6 pot brakes
PB Coilovers
Whiteline 3 point adjustable rear swaybar
Greddy Spec B Boost Controller
Koya Tek GM 18x8.5 +30 Rims with KU36 Rubber
Honestly that’s just a handful of the modifications done to the car. A lot of custom work has been done to ensure that no cutting was done to any of the hard parts of the car when fitting things such as FMIC, Oil Cooler etc etc. Lots of time and money has been spent and a countless amount of hours, blood sweat and tears are invested in the car.
The C2 tune seems to have a hole in the map coming off hard throttle runs which can lead to a clutch in stall. It might just be a vacuum leak, it might not. I’ve learnt to live with it as its not a huge issue but it’s there (at least for now) none the less.
Now the million dollar question… what am I after for it. Well I am chasing approx 16k. I don’t know what the market price for something like this would be, but believe me the conversion cost is pretty high.
If you are interested at all, please read my build thread, lots of info there. I have no secrets to hide with the car, everything is in the build thread.
Serious enquiries only via PM.
