VW lip fits the Hatch!!!

[turtlecrxsi]

My wife drives a 99' Passat 1.8 Turbo and it has loads of miles and still focken pulls. We call it "the big Turtle" cuz it's dark green (and kinda looks more like one than mine) and because I'm so curious I noticed it's running off an Audi computer. The timing belt service done back way back when was a little pricey but that's cuz the VW techs were still unfamiliar with it. She told me she wants "a sleeper Turtle so she can blow by the ricer boys" around here. If I had the 5 grand for the stage 3 Turbo upgrade and a spare ECU (so the original can be sent to be chipped) I'd buy it and turn that 180 horse Turtle into a spooling monster. Anyway, you can like more than one car manufacturer... it's ok... especially since not all the cars from one particular manufacturer are appealing...

oh and Cjz89civic, it's ok, everything will be fine you funny bastard... LOL

hes a hard-core vw guy and it pisses me off cuz everytime his friends come over and stuff its like, blah blah blah, honda sux etc etc...... and it pisses me off!

Or you can do some light mods and hit 13s. Chipped ecu, intercooler, upgraded down pipe and exhaust, BOV and boost controller. All that should be just a lil over 2 grand. The most expensive part is the intercooler and the ecu.

Fucking traitor. So when you get your Vdub are you going to whore up the VWvortex too? Hope you can handle a Vdub, ecspecially the older ones, as they break just as much if not more than our 4th gens.

I really disagree with this. The only Vdub that you can make quick for cheap, without a swap, is a 1.8t. The VR's come quick from factory but aftermarket parts for them cost a shit load.

Yeah, all my friends are into Vdubs. I have like 2 or 3 friends that are into honda's.

I was actually referring to the 1.8t thank you. They're still reliable regardless of what model. They break down alot?? How old are you talkin about here?

LMAO!

my brother blew up a corrado when he turbo'd it, he blew up 2 golfs, 2 jettas, 1 scirocco and rolled a cabrio... hes only 21, and he's been driving since he was 17 so thats like 4 years, and hes blown up lots of cars, not to mention the Countless times they have broken on him, lets just say that umm.... he knows the CAA tow truck drivers all very well, and the fact that when i had to get my car towed home when my diff exploded that the tow truck driver was like, "oh, so daves ur brother eh? we come here alot for him" lol

What the hell has been doin to them? Did he buy the corrado N/a? Most come with supercharger. I know for sure that 98 and up vw dont break down. You guys make it sound like its a ford or something.

he just drives the shit outta them sometimes, and drives them nice the rest, as for the corrado, it was his friends, then he got it to put the turbo on, everything was running fine then the motor blew (assuming it was n/a to begin with since no supercharger was on there) so they take it to a shop, windows were shot out, bullet holes in the doors, seats stolen, then eventually whole car stolen pretty funny IMO

Make sure he doesn't drive your car

We have a '91 Ford Explorer with 140,000 miles and nothing has gone wrong with it, except a chipped windshield from a rock...and a '98 Taurus SHO with 48,000 miles and not a single thing is wrong with that. We must have got the 2 Ford's that don't break down.
