I just picked up a 306 for my daily driver, and damn it's fun, I just want to keep driving!
welcome!!
Yep, it's a 98 6 speed jap import, so a GTI-6.
Cheers for the offer of the parts but I don't need any yet, I've only had it 5 days so not broken down yet!
The 306 is my replacement DD car for my Volvo 760 turbo, now that can get a new nasty motor built and some major work on it since I don't have to drive it every day

Hey Kiwi did you use to be on Eurosport?
Nope, but I am on turbobricks
I know there is a guy in Wellington with a 740 sedan with the plate quickbrick that drag races.
Here is a pic of the beast

Needs a clean.. looks nice and low key on Maroon.
It needs more than a clean, the bonnet needs repainting plus a few other bits and bobs.

ohhh we know that one... it's got that weird blue valve on it...
Not any more it hasn't!! Some sort of weird boost your economy thing, it made the car idle erratic, it came off the first day I had it.

Ya that would be him... that 740 is very fast from what i understand...
It's no slouch thats for sure
Welcome in Brick :)
Nice to see another GTi6 in here even if it is a filthy import ;)
You'll see in the link Carpentry posted, I rather enjoy mine from time to time! I had one in the past (kinda) when an Ex of mine owned one... I fell in love with the car and HAD to get one of my own.... fortunately stumbled upon a real cracker of a car, even if it does need a bit of attention given to the roof ;)

haha there are other small differences too so you won't fool those in the know ;) keep it as an S16... More sleeper that way ;)
