Hey guys whats going on? I haven't been on here in awhile, how is everybody doing? You guys are going to think I'm crazy but I'm selling the white Gti 2.0 that I bought and picking up a very fast all motor vr6 gti. It's putting 164hp down to the front wheels which is pretty good for a small car like that. I would post pics but i really do not feel like it right now lol. I am also picking up a jetta 2.0 beater just to have...Other than that Myself and a friend started a club called Euro:Society. It's a german car enthusiasts club. It started off with just a few of us, and by few I mean 4 kids lol. But now we have 50+ members, hold weekly gtg's, just had window stickers made, and I am currently working on club t-shirts. It has really taken off well for a local club...We are gaining popularity throughout the dub club world and it feels good. But anyway enough about me and whats going on in my life...whats going on with you guys? no matter what I still find myself missing my grand prix

You'll be turbo-ing that vr6 in no time.

Anyway, not much going on with the GP. I don't like cars during the winter. As long as the heat works.

ok here's the run through on the vr6...
I'll start off with the small things and then get to the bigger stuff...

Jetta front end
120k miles, immaculate interior
10mm front and 15mm rear spacers
Weitec Cup Kit suspension
bptd skid plate
17 inch rota slip streams
Neuspeed CAI
Techtonics cat-back exhaust with borla muffler/tips
Giac chip
unorthodox pullies (brand new)
race tranny with a 3.94 final drive mated to a pelaquin differential (together a $2300 upgrade)

164fwhp...

plans:
stage 2+ clutch
264 cams
Ported Intake Manifold
mk4 headgasket
bypass the a/c
get a good set of tires
chrome porsche rims that my friend has for special occasions (shows and what not)
maybe get it sprayed alpine white...its current sequoia green.

and the last time i had a green car, things didnt turn out too good lol

I am not boosting this car, it already runs high 13's/low 14's and i'd like to make a statement with an all motor car.

I HATE THE WINTER TOO, IT BLOWS.
but thanks guys for the support, maybe I'll post some pre-purchased pictures...meaning the kids for sale pics. hang tight i'll have em up ina minute

I'll have to agree there ^
Most of the VW guys around here are a little bit more tasteful IMO.

I will not even attempt to take anyone's opinions or interests from them. I will, however, resist driving another VW for as long as I live. This darn Jetta, man, this darn Jetta. ew. 2 weeks and Im back in my GP.

Its okay looking but not my taste of rims, there is a guy with that same color and he is selling the car were I live and he has black rims on it with black tint, and tinted tail which stands the car out more.

BBS wheels are a pretty big thing on the euro scene, right?

I have a few car friends that drive the vw/bmw/audi thing and they cant seem to get enough of a car that cant go over speed bumps with BBS wheels
