Firstly, apologies if I have put this in the wrong forum. Please feel free to move it.

I have just bought a '98 plate 306 gti. It needs a cambelt change, and while I am doing that, I will give it a thorough service.

I was wondering though, whether there were any mods to look out for, or that it would be advisable to do? Any common upgrades that are really worthwhile (be it very simple like putting in a highflow air filter)?

Any help would be much appreciated. I'm not looking to do any major work on it (at this stage at least), but anything to help the driving experience (and maybe sneak a couple more horses out of the engine) would be good to know, be it engine, brakes, suspension...

I will attempt to keep this thread updated when I have picked it up, although I fear it won't be anywhere near as interesting as most of the projects on here!

Thanks

And good tyres and lighter wheels. The standard cyclones are heavy old things - you can lose 20kg from the unsprung weight fairly easily and cheaply. Certainly will do more than 500 quid on the engine.

Welcome

Personally i wouldnt bother with poly bushes and either buy genuine peugeot replacements or rich w roller bearing bushes suspension wise

Hi Jon
I've done exactly what these guys have said ....Brakes/ Fluid / Wheels / Tyres / Suspension .!!!!....Massive difference ...they do know there stuff .!!!!

Nah, drop the spare wheel off and go to a magnex etc - lots more weight to be lost that way. Its not the best place to lose weight though - the front end in these are bloody heavy.
