that looks pretty good, what suspension kit did you use

It's the HnR 60/40 kit which sits pretty well in my opinion. I'd recommend it to anyone thinking of getting it.

Fitted some handle guards to stop anyone breaking in so easily although my passenger door has already been done as seen in the pic. I will end up taking them back off for paint but wanted to see how they fit

good stuff, really honest car youll have a great time with it 

 

hows it been running? 

Think Ive diagnosed the light throttle hesitation with the blue temp sensor in the thermostat housing as if I unplug it the car runs sweet so I'll try one of those first.

So I've put the gt away for the winter, needless to say I will be working on it most weekends. Still trying to sort out the lumpy running issue, changed the blue temp sensor and wiped the fault codes. It still doesn't run great, when checking measurement blocks the ignition timing is fine till you increase revs lightly then it tells me it's advancing the timing way too much, not sure what's causing this, could it be a bad dizzy or the chip? When you unplug the blue temp sensor to set the timing static it sits on 6 degree btdc which is about right. Anyone else had these issues? On another note I got hold of a 6n rocker cover and polished it up a bit, it's not the best but I'm happy with it. 

I suffered from a "kangarooing" effect when my throttle body sensor went. It was intermitent and gradually got worse. Thought I might mention it as it came up on your warnings. 

 

Also the GT uses the throttle body sensor, Air flow mass and lambada to set up air fuel mix. So having a dodgy one of those can mess up your running. As well as the blue temp sender but you have mentioned that

 

hope this helps

Sorted out my running issue today but putting my spare standard ecu in . Also finally got my 6n cam cover fitted! 

not bad shine, black is the best colour for these cars

Not much of an update but fitted my omp steering wheel today and got her out for a wash.

Got her out today and took her for a hoon, running really well at the moment ?

Gave her a quick wax today :) 

Bit of an update, Fitted a mk2 golf 16v master cylinder yesterday to help with the bigger calipers, definitely made an improvement :) also had my mot today, she passed with no advisories!

Good stuff on passing the mot. Have to have a look at doing the golf master cylinder

Lovely gt you have there.  You've done a cracking job it hit.

Thanks guys, also fitted some 195 45 14 toyo t1r's yesterday (pics to follow) and it's transformed the handling! Scared to find the limits in it now.

Here she is parked outside work. Met up with kiran_182 this weekend and had a tear up, surprisingly close between the 2 and had a blast.

Fitted a powersprint system last weekend and the bore is a bit too big but it fits really well and sounds good, pics to follow once I remember to take some!

Right not much of an update but the polo has been put to rest this year, not sure what to do with it yet whilst it's off the road but I'll update as I go.

 

So she's been back on the road for a week and is running well, still need to give it a good wash n wax but I just love driving this thing! 

So mainly been doing little maintenance bits to the polo these last few months but it's running really well, love screaming it down the local country lanes!

That’s a lovely looking gt.
