Ive decided i dont like this, after messing around with it so much and im just going to sell all the cars i have and get something more refined.
The car is basically a ph3 apart from the rear bumper.
Since i got it, i have replaced, the bonnet for a ph3 one, the dented pass door, put a smooth ph3 boot on, fitted ph1 gti6 seats in great condition, a gti6 steering wheel.
New droplinks
New 2.25" stainless steel exhaust from turbo back
New thermostat
Coilovers
Lowered the rear end
Black masks - but these will more than likely be changed to crystals for the sale.
Rallye fog light blanks
Xsara washer jets
New aero wiper blades
The car has done 151k with tax and test for a few months
I would like £800 without the wheels, or £1250 with them on.
I do also have a td04 turbo with tuned bosch pump for £300 and also a fmic kit with fans to match for £150

Yea, it is quite a trek like. But it's worth it for the wheels

The car will more than likely be for sale with crystals when I get hold of some and will no doubt be on cyclones with the option of the brocks.

How much for the wheels?
What's the offset on then. Interested if I can sell enough bits off the GTi.

£450 for them, one tyre will need replacing after the wing dug into it the other day.
Not sure what the offset is offhand, I think it's 28, but I'm running spacers to clear the brakes and the inner rear arch's

Aux tensioner is rattling like mad, bought a new one, but just not had time to fit it.
The heater element behind scuttle panel needs changing, as it only blows on 4
New Thermostat I've bought needs to be installed.
The arch's all have paint flake after I rolled them lol

New tensioner, pully, alternator and belt have now been fitted, along with a brand new thermostat and a brand new top mount with chock to minimise engine movement.
I've also done a cheeky stage 1 tune, 1.3-1.4 bar, so it's got some poke behind it now.
I have been messed around with this already, so no dreamers please.

The car now has crystals instead of black masks and I have a set of cyclones for it if you don't want the wheels.
The car runs really well with its stage 1 tune and full stainless exhaust.

Rear end minus the spoiler.
With crystals ( which are on now ), and old wheels.
Ph1 gti6 seats in great condition.
I can take more if needs be, but it's a bit mucky at the moment.
Hope that's ok?
Dan

Would you be interested with cyclones or the brocks?

Now on cyclones, i have decided £800 is a bit to low for the amount of work it's had done to it and would like £950.
