Hi everyone, stumbled accross this forum via google. I have just purchased my first golf GTi. Its a 1999 model with 97,000 kms, FSH, upgraded ECU, cam gears, intake, and a really silent exahust. All up I have 6k worth of receipts for these mods from the previous owner, muller stamps and mod description states 168KWs :driver:... All in all the car is very responsive, and am very happy with it.

My previous cars I have owned include, JDM Honda H22 Prelude, Honda CRX del sol, Championship white Honda DC2 integra type R and a Nissan 180sx type X.

I look forward to meeting some of the NSW members from this forum, and exchanging some ideas / thoughts on our cars. I will be looking for some nice wheels and possible suspension upgrades in the near future. I will also post some pics of the car when I get a chance to take some photos. At the moment is 100% stock on outside.

Hey mate, glad to hear you've moved to VW's from the Japs! I like the sounds of your car; what colour is it?

Oh, and remember to put your location in your profile so people know where you are. Head on over to the Club Meets/Events section of this forum to see what's happening around you.

Welcome to the forum Arian.

You'll have some stiff competition for the hottest looking mk 4, there are already a few in NSW!

Good luck :D

Sounds like you got some really good mods taken care of! Get onto suspension next because the MKIV is built around comfort and has very soft suspension. Some coilovers and a thick/adjustable rear swaybar will help tenfold!

Also, why the change from the Jappers?
