     Hello peeps, ive been on here for a while now and thought it was about time i got some pics up.

    Im quite happy with it, there are a few bits on it that are doing my head in but on the whole its not bad.

    Any way go easy on her, here we go. Here's my mk4 pd115 tdi 2000 golf

    When i bought her she was fairly standard other than lowering springs tints and the spoiler. First thing i did was put smoked repeaters on. I then swaped my rear lenses for hella magic colour items.

    I then added the carbonio air intake, which gave the diesel that bit more grunt.After this came the rims, in the form of keskin kt5's in gloss black. Ive always liked these rims after seeing them on mk3 vr6.

    After this i knew i had to get a milltek, so i went to awsome gti and had a 4motion style rear valance put on along with the 4 mo style cat back and large bore down pipe. I love it, probably the best after market exhaust ive ever owned. I also debadged the back.

    To carry on the black on black theme, i added some anni style head lights with HID units. Mega bright

    After a vist to inters i decided to purchase the ST-3 unit. unfortunatley due to a proplem with my ecu i couldnt use the ST-3, so a trip down to chipped UK was in order. When i got there they chipped my car with the fast road chip, and my little 115 is now running at

    163.4 hp and 260.8 lbs/ft torque. Now my diesel moves like a real GTI Automobile

    Ohh almost forgot. the best mod ive done yet...........

    So there you go peeps let us know what you think Smile

    To be honest with you mate, i cant remember off hand how much it was. It was quite expensive, but considering ive got a full milltek i think it was ok. Im a believer in the saying "you pay for what you get" if i can find the invoice i'll let you know Yes

    do you think your Milltek and Carbonio have helped alot on the way to 163 BHP ?

    Chipped Uk have been reccomended to me many times - just need some bloody money !

    I would say defo mate, i could tell there was a difference before the chip when i put the cai and zaust on. It seemed to creep into the red a bit more and it improved top end Yes

     Alright peeps

    Been a while since i did anything on my own thread so i thought id give you a little update Yes

    Now for the last couple of months (as a few of you will know) ive been toying with the idea of getting shut and getting either a 1.8t or a v6.

    Ive now decided to keep hold of the tdi, for a couple of reasons realy.

    Work has got a bit tight recently, and if it gets that bad that i need to start travelling for work again the derv may come in handy.

    Secondly, with the arrival of my new baby not to far away ive thought i should just carry on how i am and not go chucking another load of coin at another motor Yes

    Seeing as im keeping it im going to tidy up a few little bits that have been bothering me.

    Cheap of course Wink

    Ive decided to get my wheels re furbed as they have been doing my nut in for some time now

    So today i took my 18's of and got my 15's back on Sad

    Here's how im currently rolling

    It does feel like it grips some more though Big Smile

    The tyres on the keskins where pup!

    Ive also got a couple ideas on the finish im going to have on the rims Wink

    Almost forgot to mention, ive now got a v6 front valance on there and a black interior mirror curtesy of Patch Yes

    How do you find the Keskins quality wise if you don't mind me asking... how long did you have them on before they needed a refurb (& did you look after them!!), and are they a heavy or light wheel?

    Reason I'm asking is Keskin's are at  #3 on my list of candidates for new wheels next year when I pay my debts off !!!

    Car looks good... well, will do when the 18's are back on Yes

    Cheers mate Yes

    When i first got the keskins i was made up with them

    But i dont think ive had them 12 month, maybe just short and they realy do need a good re furb. The polished lip has started to flake of in places and some of the bolts have corroded. I have to say that a couple of the wheels are worse than others. maybe it was a bad batch in the factory Confused

    With regards to looking after them i havent realy done anything wrong, always kept them clean and when ever i went through the car washes i always told them to keep that acid stuff off.

    As for heavy or light, i wouldnt say there that light but i have had hold of some reps witch felt heavier. If your after something light mate i wouldnt realy advise going for them Yes
