I once hit one an owl juuuust like that going 50mph, and it's in my freezer

BTW I as well wouldnt doubt you trashed your tranny going 145mph, my sister used to have a '99 beetle 1.8T and we had it up to 132mph at one point and let up, with some rpms still to go.

 

I have a 04 vw jetta 1.8T i was on I 80 west in iowa at 130 am on sunday.

 

Oh great. I'd go on with my usual rant about stupid people doing stupid moronic things like that but I think I've beat it to death already and you'd never understand it anyway.

 

how much for this OEM VW Navigation Version G Video+ package Dane Train

 

i do not care but thank you for caring

 

I'll let you know. I'll call him today and get you the hook up. He just put one in his GTi. Its awesome.

 

does it play dvds

 

Not smart to be a dick to a moderator.

P.S.- How you like the car so far my brother has one and he says he dont like it?

 

I'm glad you said this, I was re-reading the thread for the 4th time and thinking that I missed something, I can comprehend Dell's outsourced tech support better than this guy

 

yes i love it

 

did you talk to your bro about the nav

 

wow...goes fast, eh?

if you likey go fastey, why not buy a real car that can handle it?

 

...never post illigal stuff on the forum... tisk tisk...

 

ok

 

was kidding with ya... just get ready for ppl to get on ya about it... :(

 

thats cool

 

my friend has a 2.0L 2002 Jetta and its a POS. Thing goes 0-60 in a minute if not slower. It gets to 120 though just takes an hour.

 

the 2.0L sucks butt. It only has about 115hp.. the 1.9L TDI would kick a 2.0L badly.

 

My SVT focus, had the ABILITY to go 136 MPH on PAPER. Which means, the gears would allow the car, to go 136MPH at 7,200 RPMS in 6th gear at stock weight.

Unfortunatly, it only had 170HP, which is not enough to pull 136MPH. The wind resistance at that speed is incredible.

Now what kinda HP are you putting to the ground? That made you go 145MPH? And if your tranny blew at 145 MPH, in fifth gear, it would have locked up. Since you are here typing, that didn't happen, you'd be dead.

So, what's the truth here?

 

it poped out of 5th gear and a loud pop thats it and then no gears and my 1.8T is stock

 

I *think* the latter of the 1.8T's had 180hp, my sister's '99 had 150hp and it felt pretty peppy I thought. The VW's arent limited to 100-120mph like a lot of domestics are, they'll actually tach out if you let em.. what were the RPM's at that high of a speed?

 

around 5 grand

 

got it back last night from the shop

 

my mom was telling me about a guy that bought a $120K mercedes and the engine blew 1 block from the dealership, had less than 2 miles on it, and he had to sue mercedes to get them to cover it under warranty.... i dunno what happened with that tho.

 

that would suck so bad
