There in the same price range as RM's. you can sometimes get them a bit cheaper if they need refurbing etc...Joycey wrote:I love oz turbos, they're so expensive thoughGodderz23 wrote:Why cant you just keep a set of god dam wheels. Don't know how you'd top those bbs'?!

Perfect style wheel for the 6n2 shape in my opinion. Don't suit a mk1 at all!!
Re: Silver Gti : Urm Wheels :)
Been looking at a set of rota zeros red anodised lip black centres but the et is 10 so dont no how well they will fit hmmmmm
Re: Silver Gti : Urm Wheels :)
Little update havent been up to much except for me and Matts adventure to western super mare
Went to pick up an exhaust system off a guy who was breaking a silver gti ended up buying . . . . .
Full exhaust manifold and lambda sensors
cup and coin tray which WORKED
2xhtc leads 1 set all red 1 set red and black
silver bonnet
tweeter covers
both door handles
manifold heat sheild
vw back badge
door pins
and assorted nuts and bolts
and other bits a pieces
then we fancied his borbet Ts which were on his car 14inchx8j so after alot of ummminng and arrinngg he sold them to us with 2 extra tyres
all for a sum of £400 which we thought wasnt bad
Pics of the wheels which will more than likely be matthews soon
Then this week i spotted a set of mk4 recaro seats in my local area on ebay sent him a message and picked the back bench in mint condition off him for £30 which i thought was a bargainnnn
Then today i stripped them down and put the foam and covers on the polo gti seat frames need to send them just to get the holes where the leavers were to get trimmed
Next is sort out the sub and amp wiring as it is horrid ( i didnt wire it in ) maybe a boot build of some kind new steering wheel and more than likely wheels

BEEN A LONG TIME
bought a new car couple of months ago diesel daily polo 9n. was going to sell the 6n2 gti and left it for a couple of months ummm and arring about it in the end i couldnt sell it so got a small unit with two friends one is mr ashcroft with a silver 6n2 gti on here and another vw friend !
Now its in a nice dry unit being stripped down ! iv got some new wheels for it but they are crazy fitment and waiting for custom adapters to be made if i can get them to fit it should look insane
so far.....
Picked up a raceland mani for a bargain £50 going to port polish it and heat wrap it just got to get a custom backbox made
had a coolant leak and found the radiator was leaking. stripped that out ready for a new one at some point !
got lots of plans and ideas in the pipe lines just got to figure out what i want to do
we all love pictures !
may even wrap the car

Re: Silver Gti : Project ed38 !

Raceland Manifold should sound sweet with a decent catback

Re: Silver Gti : Project ed38 !
long timeee !
havent had alot of time spare to update but lots of polo related work going on haha
got quiet a collection going on at the minute
3 silver polo Gti's one I broke my original one and another i bought and sold to a friend.
set of wheels that will be going on a polo when finished change of plan with these as i sourced a set of 4x100 faces so they will be split down and colour coded with the final polo
the latest polo which will be my project show car !
first things first rip the engine out and give the bay a degrease and polish.
Engine has been stripped down now as i was told the bottom had gone. i then found out they ran the engine with no oil so the crank and shells are scored pistons seem straight rings fine and no scoring on the block. surprisingly there isnt scoring on the cams or head and the tappets dont seem damaged. il more than likely drop the engine out of my silver polo then depending on damage il rebuild the engine and strengthen then gearbox but that will be a winter project
Plans sort out the splits
engine bay iv picked up lots of parts bmc cda with intercooler piping.
lupo gti engine cover with r8 oil cap
and so many spare parts
more to comeeee

Re: Silver Gti : Project ed38 !
Ha ha, I'm glad there's someone else out there with more than one GTI! You just need a couple of black ones, they're the best
