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,

  • VIC new and prowed golf mk1 gti owner says " guten tag"

    Well, i finally got a nice one!

    ... because back home in germany it is hard to find a decent mk1 gti for under 10 grant which is not half eaten away by rust!
    I´m in australia for 3 years now and bought myself a new toy just a few weeks ago..











    spendet a lot of time on her already, nearly every single nut and bolt got touched, just needs a bit more love...

    cheers alex

              well i dont know yet! i´ll just put some coilovers in and get some wheel spacers. still thinking to put a vr6 in it next year but i dont know if it will drive very well with that heavy engine. its a bit too much for the mk2´s already...

                Find a turbo gtd engine (try)
                Looks awesome! Great colour and interior!

                Should do this to the steering wheel
