To complete the stealth mode, you need to rebadge the rear to say GOLF (without the GTI) and also change the side trim red badges. Proper stealth then
Black wheels are fitted with Michelin slicks for track days not road legal G60 winter steels are only 6" hence the reason the slicks are on the black wheels (7") fixed link in above post. Dave, car looks familiar Edited by: G_V_K
Looking good! Are those plates legal for UK use then? I used to have them on my Mk1 but always thought they weren't legal?
lol mines is blue though car will look exactly like that next month, when my wheels get powder coated black. Smoked front indicators would go well with your car as well Edited by: Dave
It could do with painting all over, got a lot of stonechips [:^(] It's not in bad order for a 150k + mk2 which as you say, get's a fair bit of ted!
WUR mod and set up by Stealth racing ,,,,what is this ,, what does wur stand for ??? what do u think are the advantage's of the 9a 2 litre over the 1.8 kr ,,what power where you getting out of your 1.8 i have drove mk2 golfs with the tall block 16v units did not seem as sharp as my 1.8 unit , u seem like the man to ask ?? Edd...........
WUR = warm up regulator Basically it's an adjustment of the standard part fitted to the KR, it increases the fuelling under load Never had the 1800 on the rollers as it blew up on the way home from buying the car. [:^(] 9A is a short block and a direct bolt in replacement for a KR My 9A has more torque at 3000rpm than a KR does peak, the difference on the road is like night and day, no more stirring the box to overtake a HGV doing 56.. Just leave it in 4th or even 5th and go sailing by Been on the rollers today at Stealth 174bhp/153lb/ft only mods are KR cams and exhaust (other than the WUR mod and set up by Vince @ Stealth)
so did you just fit the 2.0 bottom end for that mate?? im running a stock KR at the moment and want to take it up to 2.0 like yourself. im sure i heard i use the same head and cams, but im not sure exactly. bet your car is as quick as a stock VR6 isnt it??
sweet looking motor by the way just not keen on the black wheels even though its different, im just a sad barstud i suppose
Kept up with a mk2 van with a VR6 pretty easily around Donington Fitting a standard KR head to a 9A doesn't really gain anything according to Vince @ Stealth. Edited by: G_V_K
uh oh!! not another one I've got a black 'Golf' badge and the side moulding blanks too. Great minds must think alike...or summat like that. Car looks good anyway Gary
Looks good Gary I like the steels a lot, whats next on the to do list? Pola Bear I bet that suprises a few people at the lights a job well done. Pete
Itching to do a bit of engine work Pete, head and cams, but I don't want to ruin the great torque and driveability of the 9A!
Looking Good Gary Have you got a stone chip on your offside headlamp, looks like the condensation has got to it, or is that just the pic? Edited by: alexc
