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,

  • Fitted my Milltek turbo back exhaust. Now she sounds sweet and definitely boosts harder and earlier! Now just to get stage 2 tune done.

    • Installed some black brake lights.

      Seriously easy job, and big ups to TheStu for the sweet hook up on these bad boys.

          Wouldn't have a clue what they cost normally, I got them at 'mates rates' from Stu as he had them lying under his house for a while with no need for them. I like that they're not an immediately apparent difference from the stock GTI lights.

          • Looks Good!

            I wonder if it would be too much on a black polo...

                    • cleaned it up and checked it over after a few good sessions at winton with the EXE guys

                      started off in the 1.58's, and ended up pulling it back to a 1:52.7
                      not too bad for my first time. that and the conditions were pretty hot and humid. rear tyres are rooted and the front brakes are now due for replacement lol

                            Just let the brake dust build up, it creates the same effect for free

                              Did you swap the fronts with the rears afterwards?

                              Next year, we need to organise all the Vic Polos to track on a single day at least once. There's at least 5 of us now!
