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,

See less

Tough predicament!!!

      Why do you make your GF sit in the backseat.

      I'm lucky if my wife lets me drive our car!

          I was joking. How about a second hand E92 335?

            They're still a pretty penny.. I do like the BMW marque, but I would prefer something of the vag brand..

              If we're going out with another couple, she'll sit in the back and chat with the other girl talk about girlie stuff and leave the guys at front so we can talk about one of the "man-ly topics"

                really?

                MK4 GTI is 110kw OEM?

                  + "lightly tuned" (i.e. ECU flash) = 146kw & 325Nm

                  The 1.8T in the 9N3 Polo GTI goes from 110kw/220Nm to 152kw & 328Nm
                  Being that it's 300kg light than even the Golf R, it is considerably faster than a stock R in many conditions...

                    Nath just can't handle that his R32 is a slow POS.

                          I do.. But it's not really for sale unless someone wants to pay top dollar.

                          It's my daily and I have a set of Weitecs coming for it.. Seriously top cars if you're not in a hurry and don't want electric everything.

                                Sure 9N3 Polo GTI APR Tune and MK4 Golf GTI APR Tune.

                                The Polo GTI is newer and lighter than the Golf, but you're not likely to find one for "just over $10k" yet...
