A local guy in Southeast MI just brought me a 2001 Golf 4 door 5 spd. He bought it used, no real info. It currently has 290k miles. I'd like to know more about it, it has mods that tell me someone loved this car. List below is what I've found so far.
Black 4 door
Coilovers
Glass lenses on what look to be China headlights, possibly VXTUNING units.
EGR MIA
Tuned (no CEL for EGR)
Has port in race pipe for boost gauge
Had a Panzer plate at one time (gone now, studs remain)
Had a DieselGeek 1st Gear Getter installed (not the rest of the kit though)
Helper springs on the rear calipers for parking brake cables
Antenna base gasket was replaced at one time, its not in pieces
All 4 doors lock shockingly
Shifter knob and boot replaced with a quality unit
Potentially upgraded clutch based in pedal feel
B20 sticker in hatch window
Longshot but ya never know
