    Quick Q about "necessity" of 12V Fuel Pump Mod!?

    Hello all, Well I discovered last night that my pump is going out from the noticeable death whine. The car will not be driven until I can get a new Walbro 255lph pump which I will be ordering right after I type this. Here is my question though. I have been searching and reading just about...

    Whose MK3 at Summit Point 12hrs?

    This picture popped up on my local forum, taken by a crew member of the blue Golf that participated in the SCCA 12 hr enduro that took place a few days ago at Summit Point in WV. But whose MK3 is that in the background?

    Greddy oil adapter for pressure gauge?

    Thanks for the input Jetjock. I don't trust my factory gauge as it has sat on 0 while cruising down the highway before, then it'll fluctuate and usually it shows the low-pressure idle setting to be off by a lot. My motor seems to be running fine so I'm guessing the sending unit is on its way...

    Greddy oil adapter for pressure gauge?

    Hmmm...interesting. No I haven't installed a relocation kit, I didn't think it necessary in order to do this. There isn't anything in the product description about that being required, but thats why I posted up here I guess, to find any tips/tricks to get this to work. It says its...

    Greddy oil adapter for pressure gauge?

    Hey all, I'm planning on purchasing the Greddy oil filter adapter for a pressure gauge and installing it ASAP when I next change the oil. I don't really trust the factory gauge and I figure its better to be safe than sorry. I just wanted to check here and see if anyone else is using it and...

    Custom Catback Magnaflow need advise / suggestions.

    I have a 3" turbo-back exhaust, BIC downpipe, cat, and single Magnaflow muffler and it is fairly loud. I don't mind it at all, but it does boom and drone inside the cabin at cruising speeds and its most definitely loud outside the car!

    Learning to Drive, Reccomendations?

    I'm sure your local SCCA chapter holds some sort of weekend rookie school. Where I'm from, (Blue Ridge Region SCCA - Virginia), you can attend a Saturday "test and tune" and drive with an instructor, and autocross on Sunday for about 50-60 dollars depending on whether you have a SCCA membership...

    My 89 Targa Turbo Resurrection

    Wow, so that is what a MK3 looks like completely unladen. That thing is a real 4x4 now! Looking forward to seeing your progress with this. Build threads are particularly interesting when one starts from a bare shell; essentially the ground up. BTW, what wheels are those on your red MK3. They...

    What's your camera and what's your favorite picture taken?

    I have a regular ol' Canon Powershot A610, 5 megapixel. Really nothing special, but is amazing what I've gotten out of it from really learning how to use it. Here is my favorite shot, you can see more here. Also, alloyguitar, I'm also a Goodspeed, how about that. Our name is awesome.

    Are you talking about the Kroger/shopping area over on 33, behind the Valley Mall? Where do you work at? Next time I'm in the area I might stop in and introduce myself. That light blue MK3 with the front end damage you saw is a JMU professor. I've seen that car in the faculty-only parking...

    Track vids- VIR 11/19/07

    Great looking pics Brian, the MK3 looks far more menacing on track than the 944! I've been meaning to ask you, how has the MK3 kept up with track abuse, tires, rotors, pads, etc? When I realized just how much track time you get at the Patriot course I opted not to waste my tires etc, as I...
