drift_n_shift has a spectacular aura aboutdrift_n_shift has a spectacular aura about
new gti's are sick, i love them. my buddy has a rabbit 4 door, and that is solid. nice and torquy, and moves for a 3000lb boat. also, i believe the gtis are built in wolfsburg so they quality is much better than the they make elsewhere. my only complaint is the price tag. i mean sure, its a sick car, but $40,000 on that... ehh, might make me buy something else. but thats just me. :thumbsup:

Chip is another 800 $ but I got dealer lock out and stock mode and 93 octane stage 2 mode.

So if you want to bare minimum to get those times its only 2000 $ and that adds 60 hp to the wheel and you will be running 23 psi boost on the k03 turbo.

I have alpine screen 19 " bbs rims lowered my car and did a load of stuff and I have spent at least 13 000 $ on my car and more is to come.

I bought my car to customize it the way I want, I could of easily bought a g35 don't get me wrong if I didn't like to customize my cars I would of got the g35 with ease its a great car but as I said I wanted to customize my car.


Wow! $2k adds 60whp??? Big deal, $2k in mods for my '01 Stang could get me 100whp and beat the pants off your jokeswagon.
Give it a rest man, you simply CANNOT compare a GTI to a 350Z/G35, you talk about these other cars and reference "class"? IMO your car has no class, it's a friggin Golf.
Good for you that you like your car, I like mine too, but I don't start threads bragging that I beat a much better car by .1sec in the 1/4, .1sec is a friggin joke, who are you Toretto?-"winning is winning". I too have destroyed many higher priced cars, but I'm sure they have things on me too, and the owner probably loves his/her car regardless so who cares?
A 350Z will ALWAYS beat your car in that it is a much more desireable, classy, fast, prestigious automobile.

And I just went to APR's web site and found this...

Notice they say 300HP (they're talking about BHP here not WHP by the way).

LOL!

i can't really picture myself paying 40k for a new car (other than my account balance of 0 ). I think I would rather get an unmolested FD RX7, MK4 supra or even a skyline and put $$ into that.

Adding to this, the best handling FWD Sport Compact Car ever tested was the Mazdaspeed Protege (which is replaced by the Mazdaspeed 3). Not a VW. VW doesn't have on Mazda when it comes to designing amazing handling cars and that's a fact that's been proven time and time again.

In any turbo car first hp is easy hp. Add an exaust and chip in a talon, srt-4, supra, 300zx, or even a probe gt and you'll see a significant hp increase. My friend's probe gt hit 198whp and 289tq with just chip and exaust at 16psi. That car comes with 145hp stock to the flywheel, about 123whp.

Skidpad numbers doesn't tell you which car is better handling though.

But I agree.. VW's have never really been that strong in the handling department... Although the new MKV's are A LOT better... stiffer chassis w/ IRS you can't compare that to the older models, they finally stepped up their game.
