Bought this a couple of weeks back to replace the mk1, after getting a job and needing something 'better' to get to work every day.
First mod, fitted last night, are some US GTI rear lights.
Rubbish pic, I know
Plans are some coilovers, BBS CHs (maybe) and more boooooooost
and some anni headlights when I get the pics of them

Need some monies Steve, then nothing will happen for a while other than hoarding parts, when I've got them all, it'll all fall into place

K03s?
GT28/60RS maybe, or an IHI VF34/22...

K03s would be a waste of time for me, I'd only gain a little amount of power and I'd have to change it again in the long run. I might as well go for the right turbo to begin with, meaning I only buy one

At least 300, if not 350.

You can get that without big turbo's in all fairness?

K03s wouldn't do 350, even a K04 would be struggling.
I'd rather do it right, IHI is one way, GT28 is a better way.

Anni headlights will be on their way in a few days
Found a couple of sets of wheels I like, I think it's going to be one rather than the other though, I can't see 11" wide rears working

There's a bloody big difference between 9s and 11s.
10s work on mk4s, they look spot on with the right offsets
See
9s on a Polo is easy, you can get 9s on a 6n

I've seen one and it looked shite. If I could get the wheels I like in 10", I would, but they're only available in 11s. Or 12s
