Jits MK4 GTI

[staticmk4]

Thought I'd make a build thread on here since I've started being more active on this forum lately. Nick name is jit, and I own a 2003 mk4 gti. Purchased this car a few months ago in perfect condition.

Here are some pics of when it first entered my driveway:







And then the mods started

New south performance boost gauge:






I then invested in a full 3" catless turbo back


Exhaust in thanks to the guys at roadway muffler center:















Forge 008 Diverter Valve and Evoms cold air intake

Then I purchased eurodyne maestro suite and uploaded the stage 1 file to my ecu, and the gains were incredible







OEM r32 sway bar and ecs dog bone mount











Sway bar and dog bone comparison and installed with a friend






How I connected the stock end links to the sway bar. Engineering/10





8000K HID lights

Purchased a set of SSR professor sp1s. They are 17x7 et37, but I ended up selling them before even having them on (it was an impulse buy and good price lol)

Then I purchased some BC BR coilovers








Got time to install them with a friend. Couldn't really drop it that low as my stockies wouldn't clear the coilovers













And then came my next set of wheels. Oz futura in 17x7.5 et38 and 17x8.5 et38



Nankang ns20 Tyres on. 205/45/17 all around








Test fit

And then I finally had them mounted on and lowered the car more. The wheels are 5x114.3 so I bought 2 sets of 20mm hub centric adapters off ecs, bringing the offset down to et18 all around.

And that brings me to where I am now. More planned for the car, and I'll keep posting as I go

Loving what you have done so far mate!

Thanks fellas, still have a lot planned

[AusScare]

Love everything you've done to this!

Except the tyres, with all those great power/suspension mods, you need some good rubber to ride on!

Looking very cool mate, nice seeing a red one too! Not many around.

Looking good man! How does the swaybar go at that height? Any rubbing?

No rubbing at all man. Plenty of clearance
