    Just spent an hour reading back through this thread. Enjoyed the memories it triggered, well most of them. Maybe not the tow truck parts.... But the rest of them

    New wheels plus a lot of maintenance, no more oil leaks and a fresh timing belt for the old girl, also put in a chassis brace and double din head unit

    wheels suit the TT really well, glad they went to a good home...

    I got your text about the bolt caps and didn't reply because I want to leave it as a reminder to post them to you. I've been trapped in SA for a while but when I'm home next I'll try to find them and post them on...

    take it easy mate...

    So the TT is still going strong and draining my bank balance Lito's MK4 GTILito's MK4 GTI. I’ve installed 4 adjustable rear control arms so my rear tires last more than 6 months, an aeroflow fuel rail fuel rail and Turbosmart fuel pressure reg as I’m pretty sure my walbro fuel pump was flowing too much for the stock for at idle and cruise situations.
    I moved to Brisbane at the start of may and noticed my clutch was starting to slip at anything over 20psi, yay.
    Recently I had discovered a few cracks in the exhaust manifold and down pipe, also the turbo was leaking oil into my intake piping.

    Didn’t want to change the set up as I love the way it drives so I just bought another manifold (number 3 now Lito's MK4 GTI) and a new pulsar gtx2867r gen2 turbo
    New clutch is currently on its way for the 2nd time as they sent me the wrong one the first time.
    Once the new clutch is in I’m super keen to hit the track again!

    Put the new clutch disc in last weekend, not a fun job at all, very fiddly job without a lift. I think I’ll just pull the whole engine next time, that’s the way I’ve done it before and it’s alot easier and takes about the same amount of time. Also it’ll be probably be due for a timing job anyway and doing that with the engine in the car sucks too haha.



    All back together


    Gave it a wash today as well
