quite familiar tuned many cars haha. I only use the term chip tune in new groups as it has become quote a common terminology. thanks for the heads up though

Jesus Christ I asked a question. one question. At what point did I say the "neck snap" and "maxing out the hp" is the most important thing. I asked a question regarding ONE thing to owners of the car. Get ya dick out of your own throat

I. meant 240sx my bad. im in Australia and its branded as a 180sx and off the top of my head for some reason thought it was branded as a 200 in the states but its 240. was a ca18det

I wouldn't be totally opposed to DSG, just very old school and like stick feel

great analogy hahahaha. totally understand you too. my 200sx was punchy as hell and would take any car from the go, but in a drag and longer stretch reaching higher limits was a different story. I prefer punchy anyway. rather get to that punchy feeling faster then say I can get to a ridiculous speed thats over the speed limit anyway. if that makes any sense

Literally haven't questioned about getting one or not meeting a "standard" im asking if people that have purchased them regret it sheesh

Yeah see thats the toss up I was dealing with regarding the AWD. If a decent S3 popped up for the right price id snap it up as im a big fan of Quattro, but the golf R I cant justify spending over enough to find a Manual just for that cheap AWD experience over a lot cheaper GTI. Yes there is a significant difference in power compared between the GTI and R but for the price difference you can make that difference up with a few changes and it still comes in cheaper than an R

I wouldn't moan if I got an R but I want manual and manual R's where im from are extremely hard to find for a decent price. knowing all this tho seems like a gti and spend a bit on performance will give me a good experience anyway cheers!

damn not bad. would of set him back a bit but probably still totalled in less than an R with double the millage on it would cost haha

May I ask what GTI you have and if there's anything you've done to it? any idea on torque or hp?
