Golf syncro RHD Supercharged

Hi, jase Next I want to fit a short shift kit but not to sure which to go for (still looking into it) and might get some spacer for the rear wheels although that goes against me not wanting to add unnecessary weight. but not big plans for the rest of this year. next year hopefully more power and lose some of the weight. vr692- As for the induction kit I think I got it from awesome gti a couple of years ago but I’m sure there not made anymore so you might have to look for a second hand one. -

There are two silencers on my system including the back box. Yeah running 18s, need to really as the cat bypass catches on speed bumps as its so low because it sit under the drive shaft. Was running 16s but just too low and was catching everything, could have raised it as I have coilovers but wouldn’t have looked right. Still catches on really big speed bumps but very rarely. -

Are these wheels a good idea? (Opinions please)

Wish I kept the azev but recently changed to 16" mercs I need 17s because on 16s my 3" exhaust right where the cat bypass is catches on speed bumps and up and down drive ways etc, I could raise it as I have coilovers but i think it would sit to high on 16s and look odd so need 17s -
Hi Need some input, been looking for some 17†wheels for a while and found these. There reasonably light and don’t cost the world and because I am going for more of a track car than show car think these are the ones for me. They need to bee 17s because ground clearance issues.

Yeah its still a syncro, i am considering a heldex conversion but if i do convert it, it won't be for a long while. As for how it drives, off the mark there is loads of grip. As the rear wheels engage it feels like an extra push from behind you definitely notice the difference. -
yeah currently i'm doing a fair few short runs so maybe its that and i'm not losing any coolant. cheers stuart

Hi guys I have a vf stage 2 supercharger kit on my vr and removed the cap on the oil catch tank and there was a small amount of creamy looking stuff. Anyway I removed the black sponge in the tank and the bottom of it was covered in cream. And inside the tank was a really watery looking clear oil. So I sucked it out PICTURE BELOW and there was loads of cream at the bottom of the tank. Am I right in thinking the head gasket is on its way out? There is no cream on the dipstick or oil cap. The water level has been the same for ages Please help Cheers stuart

sparkz- Not the best pics but hope they will do. Paul1982- Pretty much spot on to what I want to do. I don't think I’ll be doing to much more this year (got made redundant today) apart from the odd bits and bobs. One day hopefully I’ll have it all done.
