mk4 gtis came with 2.0's before they offered the 1.8t

ask veedubgti he just posted his car up there

2.0

 

MKIV GTIs also came with the 12V VR6 motor and the 2.0..I believe the 1.8Ts fist year in a gti was 2001.

 

i dont have a regular golf, mine is a GTI and i have a 2.0

 

For the record, I don't claim to know everything about the watercooled cars. My specialty is the aircooled models.

I couldn't remember if they continued the 2.0l into the Mk4 GTI or not. I thought they went back to offering only the VR6 (like early Mk3's). But I did know that the 1.8Ts came at a later date.

Oh well, I learned my one new thing for the day.

 

This is the Blue Tank.....

 

i don't care if there are MK4 2.0l GTI's, honestly. that's what the two door golf is for. but of course, they also had the four door Golf 1.8t's. honestly, i don't see the point. the GTI is supposed to be the "sport" version of the Golf, yet they made 2.0 GTI's and 1.8t Golfs...

to me... if it's 6 cylinder or turbo it's a GTI (grand touring injection)... and if it's a 2.0 it's a golf, but you can call it a GTI if you want. i know Robb's is a GTI (and garry's). Robb's is also supercharged

not sure why volkswagen did this. pretty odd if you ask me.

just my $.02

 

Robbs is a GOLF....Sebrinas is a GTI and there both 2.0Ls....Sebrinas just has much more options.

 

oh, ok. i thought he said it was a GTI. woops. what other options does sebrina's have?? rims instead of hubs, etc?

 

i have an "8 valve" gti. here's the best pic i have so far.
