Polo Project

[Timbo]

Alfie, I'd be interested to see your time sheets for that

Are they online?

Well both these cars are going to be tracked and set up to be the best they can be. But at the same time, i am getting the balance of not too soft for track and not too hard for the road.. So both my cars are set up to be best of both worlds. Trade off is that, it is not going to be perfect either way..

So far the time i got were off my personal devices (similar like Motec)
However, the Polo GTI is going to be more for club day and etc.

Personal best for both the cars are:

R36 : 1.40.7 (Semi-Slicks)
Polo GTI : 1.43.7 (Road Tires)

That's not bad for the Polo against the R36 given the tyres. Given the times I assume that is the National Circuit (3km) at Winton and not the Club Circuit (2km) ?

Very fast time for a FWD car on road tyres without LSD at Winton

Yes it was the national circuit and the car has an LSD installed

I will try to upload some pics of the car today. The only thing missing in that write up was my resently added KO4-025 CHRA turbine that i just got installed a few weeks back. Cheers guys...

Nice writeup.

Any chance of seeing that second article / page at a higher res? Pretty much unreadable.

Well, backs up my reason for choosing the Polo, pretty hard to meet its ability for the $$$.

i always though this was neil's (gt3)'s ride tbh

[Black R36 Sedan 09(alfie)]

Well it was originally, i bought it off him and added bits and pieces to it. Brakes, Coilover's and the K04-025 CHRA.
The write up it without the new turbo as it was recently upgraded.

Thanks GTIJNR, i keep seeing you around the CBD. I live in Flinders lane so i do bump into you when you park your car in melbourne central and ect. lol!

Re: Polo Project

That is one nice car bro, goes hard as but I think it is much more driveable than my little chipped only Polo. The LSD makes an awesome difference!

[Jarred]

yea this thing goes pretty bloody good! I'd love to get it out on the track and really let loose!

[Big Yellow]
