Got it since 5y + by korky1318 I had a 92 8 valve Jetta, and an 89 GTX 16valve. I loved my 8v, 16v was a bit of a mess, but that was for due to Digi swap and other mods. I'd love to pick up a mk1 Jetta project. Easily some of the most serviceable cars Permalink Parent 1 korky1318 OP t1_isfuqbp wrote on October 15, 2022 at 5:39 PM I had a gtx too. Sold it. Same story, a mess and no power under 4k rpm. Don't like the 16v that much tbh.
