New Member - Hi

[LevanM]

Hello

I was advised by a good friend to join this community and learn a little

I am currently responsible for 2 VW's
1. 2002 Polo Playa 1.6i AC Version
2. 2017 Polo TSi CL Beats

History on the said VW's:
1. Belongs to my SO and has been modded by CPi Johannesburg. From what I recall, the following was done:
Head Work - Sent to 8v Performance
276 Estes Cam
Vernier Pulley
2.3/2.1 Pistons (I think they were Autoquip)
2L Steel Crank (I always assumed all Cranks were made of Steel)
CPi Chip
210mm Flywheel
Something about a Clutch being changed also.

Since the Motor was done, I had the guys also install new Water Pump, Oil Pump, Water Pipes ETC.
Some time ago, we had the Power Steering Pump replaced because it was causing a winding noise (Which is still there but not so loud) and some of its piping as it was leaking.

I had to replace the battery yesterday left the key in the car with the radio on one afternoon and killed a cell

Currently, the car has a Oil Leak and has never made the Power that Preshen (CPi) and I expected. I think it did 70wkw and we were hopping for +-90wkw when we started the build.
It seems to over fuel (Smell fuel when idling and is a little heavy on the juice)
Also can't seem to get past 160km/h on the private race track and takes some time to get there after passing 120km/h
*Currently looking into doing some work on the car to get it 100%

2. I got the Polo new in February and had VW Springs (Eibach), Mudflaps (Front and Rear), Rubber Mats and a 35\20 Smash and Grab Done.
After a month or so of owning the car I had it sent to Durban to my sister.

Previous VW's:
2012 Golf 6 GTi
2016 Golf 7 GTi PP
2016 Golf 7 GTi Clubsport (Sold to my Dad so still in the family )

Previous Car's:
1995 Toyota Corolla 1.3 4Speed
1996 Toyota Conquest 180RSi +Vat
1997 BMW E36 325i +Vat
2012 Opel Corsa UTE 1.4i A/C
2003 Audi S3 +Vat
2007 BMW E86 Z4MC (Miss her the most)
2012 Hyundai i10 1.25i Fluid Auto (RIP, My dad had a small write off with her and the Audi won)

Current Car:
2013 BMW F20 M135i +Vat

I have not added work and changes to the other cars as they are Ex's and not VW's.

I will add photos soon

Thanks for reading

Hi Sebz

Thanks for the welcome.

I will read over the rules now

I will post up my M135i, quick question before I do. On the GTi Forum I did this and the owner (MJP) threatened to Ban me as I posted items that are not from one of the Forum Advertisers But is this an issue here?

Welcome and enjoy the forum

I'll keep quiet regarding the GTi Club of Northern Gauteng club/forum. But, there are rules on this forum regarding selling/advertising as an indivdual as well as a company or for profit, which you should familiarise yourself with. If anything is unclear, get hold of one the committee members who are always willing to clear things up.

Hi

I was not posting to profit or sell anything but did a Rave on the parts I had paid for and fitted to my car from a supplier that was not an advertiser which was an issue.

I will do a build thread on my car and keep within the rules here. I just wanted to clear the air first.
