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,

          Looking good Would have loved to have seen them but I didn't stop at the show. Couldn't find anywhere to park so I went home again. A couple of beetles did the same.

                to go with the mk4 armrest is the front and rear seats retrimmed in bmw leather. they are oem porsche wheels from a 944 turbo found in the trading post but there is heaps about on ebay

                the show we wont go into that, all i need to say is "yellow peril"i dont know what else could be done

                it was good to catch up with a few of the water cooled krew but we need more of you

                      Rubbing guards

                      Thats why you don't put 17's on a mk1 as well as they look silly (too big)
                      15s are really the biggest for a mk1.
                      If you are up to date with whats on overseas no one has 17s on a mk1.That style went out years ago (1990s)

                          Porsche wheels look great.
                          My favourites for a mk1 are 928 s wheels and although they are 16's you can fit 195 /40 16s on .
                          anything like a 205 size is really too big.
                          Fitting of the Porsche wheels is not a straight bolt on as you will have to import some adapters from Europe so take that into consideration first before you rush into any purchase.
                          My son and I are building a 1.8t Mk1 Golf to burn off the Skylines at our local racetrack.
                          Dads gone for the comfort, power steering and grunt no doubt.
                          Anyway all the best with your car.

                              928 wheels do suit the mk1 shape so well
