So I have here this VW GTI 1.8T that im thinking about selling, because i really miss drifting. But im not really in a rush. I just had it rebuilt because the previous owner dropped a valve. All of these mods on the car were done while ive owned it, the car was stock besides the body kit when i got it (shitty looking bumpers). All of these mods are literally brand new and have been on the car for less then 50 Miles.
-4 OEM pistons(new)
-4 OEM rods(new)
-New rod bearings and everything, new rings and all that jazz
-Used replacement head with brand new valves and stuff
-USED K03s, The car used to have a K03 but that had a lot of shaft play so i figured id throw that in there since i got it for $200.00.(K03 included in sale)
-AUDI R8 projector/lightbar headlights(new)
-Black ECS badge less grille (new)
-Autometer air/fuel narrow-band gauge(new)
-Nitrous 7 color vacuum/boost gauge (new)
-Shift light, i forget what brand(new)
-Nice Sony deck(new)
-X02 racing FMIC with blue couplers(new)
-HKS SSQV3 BOV(new)
-Yellow stuff brake pads, still in box because i haven’t gotten my new rotors yet.
-Two 4.3 Diodes, never installed
-Stainless steel brake lines, never installed still in bag
I have these ASA rims that are 17x8 i believe… with like brand new tires on them that i just paid $550.00 for but they have a bolt pattern of 5x114, and as you probably know the gti has 5x100. I was going to get spacer/adapters but i haven’t gotten around to it. On the car now are the KONIGS in these pictures, there all in mostly great shape, but i just don’t really like them. BOTH sets will be included with the car. The tires on the KONIGS however are almost bald.
THE BAD:
-The passenger side door doesn’t open from the outside, but it does from the inside. Also i don’t believe the lock moves with the electric motor but it does manually…not sure what could be broken in there because i haven’t looked at it…just stopped working one day.
-The front piece (I think its part of the radiator support) is damaged because of the previous owner being a retard and trying to tow it by a plastic piece…
-The back corners of the hood are bent up, basically it could use a new hood because the one on there is beyond being able to just pop out some dents.
-The front quarter panels aren’t real bad, but they could be replaced.
-THE ONLY RUST ON THE BODY IS ON THE HATCH, THE BOTTOM CORNERS HAVE SMALL SPOTS OF SURFACE RUST. THERE IS ALSO A TINY SPOT ON ONE OF THE SIDES OF THE CAR NEAR THE REAR WHEEL WELL FROM THE HORRID SIDE SKIRTS THAT WERE ON THE CAR WHEN I GOT IT.
-The front bumpers paint is chipping pretty badly, the rear is also but not as bad. (basically the car would look a shit ton cleaner with a new body kit and some loving…but im just really not super interested in making the car perfect. FWD isn’t my thing.
-There’s only one dent on the car itself as far as i remember…and its very minor.
-Rear struts are pretty shot.
-Two holes in the driver side carpet where your feet rest, aparently the kid before me had a religion against using floor mats.
THE GOOD!:
-92,xxx on the clock, the car sat in some guys garage for a while before the owner before me picked it up.
-Engine is very solid and has 180PSI compression in all cylinders
-The engine has like 50 miles on it since the rebuild, still in the process of breaking it in.
-I am going to put a BRAND NEW 3 IN turbo back on the car, before it is sold.
-I may just put a set of street line coil overs on the car before i sell it…along with spacers to get those other rims on there. Depends how fast someone wants the car, and how much people are offering me AKA if its worth my time to clean the car up a tad more!
HERE ARE SOME PICS I HAVE OF THE CAR DURING THE FIRST FEW DAYS OF OWNING THE CAR, I WILL GET UPDATED PICTURES WITH ALL OF THE MODS DONE ASAP! LIKE I SAID IM JUST TESTING THE WATERS.
I would like to get $5000.00 OBO for the car as it sits now with all of the above listed issues…But make me an offer i may just jump on it.
NO TRADES UNLESS FOR A BUILT OR SR20 SWAPPED 240 SX!
Thanks,
Zack.
