and he engine bay of the original engine

engine out

The wheels are now sweeet and white.. and bumpers are in process of being colour coded so should be some new pics up soon

One word. HACKET!!!!!

lex-arse lights with condensation, red fans. come on get it sorted shoulda went jap jonny boy! u kno this in your heart although you will never admit it!

just kidding mate u know this. car is looking good will be a good wee car when u finished with it.

in johns defence ive been in many gti's in the past and johns is one of the fastest ive been in, ive also been in 1 or 2 shitty gti's in my time too.

So i had a wee bit of a problem with the cylinders loosing pressure, could be a head gasket or a number of other wee things, the heads coming off when i get the chance and have a wee look.
Depending on whether or not its pricey might just buy a jp4 engine which you get from the 206 and 307 xsi engine, its also a 1.6 16valve and has 110bhp instead of 120bhp standard, but it has bigger pistons, cylinders etc.. so has a lot more room for tuning and i can get the full engine for 350 with 20k miles on it from a 55 plate... so pactically brand new, stick all my old mods on, and when i cam, chip and remap it as i was plannin on doin with my curren engine, il have it more powerful as he engine takes better results from the tuning.

so watch this post

and once you put my wheels on yer car it'll look mint

I must say i do still love th look of 106 gti's. Seen a white one in focus last night, tidyyyyyyy.

you sure the white one was really a gti? or was it cosies banged up piece of shit 1.4 wae gti stickers all over it?
