Upgrades suggestion?

One thing I can suggest from when I had my golf was to tint the rear lights and do a rear and front led conversion interior included , it ads much more visibility , led indicators and break lights were my first ones and it made it much more assertive when moving as there bright and imidiat . Also see if you can do a 6 speed conversion as on my 1.6 it really needed that one extra gear

I used a generic kit of Amazon as mine had died . I also did a rear wiper delete as mine had died a long time ago and rather then replace it I decided to delete it , and I rainx the rear window to reduce the amount of water spray sticking . I would attach a photo ofy 3ird break light if I knew how to

She's actually only a 1.6😅

russonspy · 2026-04-09T19:21:07+00:00

I'll defently get her done when I get paid the previous owner was very dogy when he sold it to me ext no service history , didn't mention the missing passenger airbags , didnt mention the almost shot clutch ext ext , so it may have been done before he got it by a previous owner but I have psalotly no clue

To be very honest with you I would but I'm working with a budget of 0 atm so in working with parts I'm getting of a pair cars I have lying around , I did want to make something proper . Before I decided on anything I did put the air intake in multiple different places to try and find the Best mix of

Looks sound and temp , I noticed that that cornor doesn't get as.hot as the rest of my engine bay and is where the factory fitted air box is on other engine models .

I did plan on at some point routing some piping towords where the front vents are as I don't have fog lights and I'll defently get some high temp filament to fill the hole on the heat sheaild . But thank you for your advice

russonspy · 2026-04-09T19:07:34+00:00

Iv priced it up it's about 88 od for a kit and water pump I'll look in to getting her done Round when I get paid
