Hi all
Not been on here for a while due to a detatchment to Iraq.... mmmm great... was going to use my money for the GTD but the Mrs wants a new kitchen in the house
A quick update on progress, sorry its a link of another web site, will get round to writing up more details when i can find time.
Till then keep up the good work with the IDI engine's, i have reserched a load of usefull information of this web site for my project.

Hey, that's a really nice golf you have there, I love the styling, sup-er clean too. Put up more pictures! Mine is nearly finished, here is a picture of it fresh out of the spray booth:
Will post more pictures when it's finished.
What have you done in terms of tuning and has it made any noticeable differences?
I bought the AHU engine from you, i'm afraid my GTD is no more and the head off that engine is in my current mk3.
Hey, "MK2 GTD", very beautiful Golf, man!
Put up more photos of it.
Here's mine:
Aidan,
Sorry to hear your GTD is no more, pity as they seem to attract a lot of attention, i took mine back home for the weekend and the ammount of people who asked me if it was a conversion was unreal...... rare beasts.
Thanks for the kind comments guys
Like your GTD HP, could do with lowering a bit though
Will try and get a few pictures of the car on the site over the weekend, after i had cleaned it today a flock of starlings flew over it and S**t all over the roof and bonnet..... sods law......lol.
Will take a few of the exterior and some of the brake conversion i have carried out, the suspension and a few goodies that i still have to fit to it.
Here is a few photos of the "rare interior" if any one has seen or got this fitted, please let me know as i havnt seen it in any other Mk2 golf's

Nice car mate.... love the front end
Am impressed you got a turbo diesel steering wheel.... they are like rocking horse s**t to get hold of.
Love the power graph and turbo gauge.... what mods have you done to the engine ?
thats not wheel Hp but still moves quick.
its a 1.6D engine with all GTD accesories.
fuel increased,custom LDA pin,front mount I.C., blocked waste gate, KKK24 at 2bar.
hope to do in august still the exhaust in 2.5", governor mod,advance mod and 1.9 head gasket
Here is mine!
(mine has the red and black version of the same interior - my GTD's interior is out of a 5dr G60)
Mines having a full makeover soon along with a fully body respray in original Montana Green and a few subtle mods! I'm modifying it for me and I dont give a stuff what anyone thinks! Pics will follw as/when things get done!
Hey MK2 GTD, That backbox looks brilliant. I'm currently fitting a twin tailpipe to mine, however it sags at the back and isn't straight, how did you get that to sit so perfectly snug? Also where did you get the turbo and diesel rear badge?
Here is an average camera phone picture of mine, nearly finished, will get better pictures when it is.

Nice car mate......
the rear badges came on the car when i got it, the front like yours i got of ebay in the states.
Exhaust.... if you look at the rear hanger its held on by a lock nut, undo it, takt it off and turn the hanger 180 dergrrs, that way it will fit and not bang on the rear scuttle..... mind you i han to remove some of the scuttle as the twin pipe set up dosnt fit.

Got to admit, your car has been a bit of an inspiration for me, i have followed most of your posts in this site
Love the car and the colour is great....... was tempted by big bumpers as i have a set in the garage but after looking at loadsw of vw golf sites thought the small bumpers looked retro.
