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,

  • My first forum post

    Hello all,

    Bought a Polo GTI 9N3 recently as a second car, daily driver, shopping trolley, and maybe track toy.

    Quick background check, I work in an engineering shop as a manager, project lead, machinist, designer etc. Worked in Defence, auto, etc. Working with Solidworks, about to start in SolidCAM, more CNC 2-3-5 axis stuff. Always looking out for an a project, but I'll always buy a well made aftermarket part before making my own.

    Got a penchant for fast things, sport bikes, track days, even mountain bikes!

    I joined the forum to get a handle on the how's and whys of working on the car, why you've chosen particular parts etc. The normal forum things. I'm about to embark on a rebuild job on the Polo's suspension to be ready for a sneaky track outing.

    Cheers all,

    Pete

        Welcome to the forum.
        If it turns out to be too slow at the track.... Let me know.

          Hey man thanks for the offer, but I track a GSXR600 reasonably often and everything is going to seem slow by comparison. I'll be a roundabout champion in this thing but hardly setting track records.

          With that in mind it could do with a tune in the future...
