Nietsnut Posted June 29, 2014 Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 Hi All,as it is polite to introduce oneself on a forum here is my intro: I'm Melvin, from Zwolle in The Netherlands and I drive a 07-1999 3L with the 1.2TDi 3-cylinder engine. The car has been in my possession since june 2010 and had 137.000 km on the odometer when I bought it. It has not been tampered with, the mileage is confirmed by an official VW Werkstatt. Today it reads 275.879 km.When I got it it was bogstock and has been changed gradually through time to what is is today, but because I have a new upgrade coming I am looking for the blue GTi (?) owner with the red Scirocco seats as I need some info on how to fit the Scirocco seats. I can figure it all out by myself but when someone has been through the trouble being a pioneer I might avoid some mistakes.Now some more about my car, it has:a BC Racing suspensionkitOEM FSi summerwheelsOEM 3L 4J winterwheelsGTi xenon headlights, led city/brake/reverse lightsa smartphone controlled Webasto heaterthe EGR removeda stainless steel freeflow exhausta remapped engine from 61/140 hp/Nm to 76/166 hp/Nma decent car stereo (Audiosystem/CDT/Kenwood)Golf 3 GTi Recaro seats and a split (4-parts) rear seatIt gets great fuel economy, mostly I do around 28 km for every liter of biodiesel I chuck in. This equates to 79 MPG, the best I ever achieved was 1242 km on 29 liters or 123 MPG. Youtube Video ->Original Video Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nietsnut Posted August 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 The front seats are finally mounted and I changed the interior from grey to black. I still have to mount the rear seats which will happen later, first I will tend to the front of the car as mu black doorpanels need customizing due to the CDT speakers and all the wiring needs to be finished to the roof (dashcam + microphone) and to the back (rear dashcam).Scirocco seats are very comfy!

Nietsnut Posted August 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 Unfortunately no one replied to my pm asking about the Scirocco seats so I figured it all out by myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
