type of fto

[hhakan]

I bought a fto recently. I was wondering how do I find out what kind of fto the car is. E.g. weather its a gpx, gp or what ever else there is. It's a 95 model auto with trip tronic and power Windows if that helps

Thanks in advanced.
P.s Ive been driving around in it for the first time today and the drive is so enjoyable

what does the redline start at? and does it have a screen that u can choose temperature (climate control)?

WTTC mate,

Do you have mivec? (check your engine does it say mivec on it)
Do you have blue seats with FTO written on them?

If you have mivec but no seats with FTO on them its a GPX.
If you have no mivec and no seats with FTO on them, its a GR or GX depending on your year model.
If you have mivec and the seats with FTO on them, its a GPvR.
If its 1.8L its a GS

[silverGPX]

lol yeah i pretty much failed compared to that

[spency]

if you look at the boot, it should say.

Incase u don't know what mivec is
Look under the hood if the oil cap is on the left side its mivec if its on the right its a non mivec also mivec dosent use a maf sensor
Version r had manual aircon not the one with screen
One tip ill give get your roof checked and have the glue changed just incase

Btw welcome to the forum and the fto life =)
So how many kms on the clock where are you located
stock or fixed up
Any issues known I had quite a few when I bought mine
If you need any parts serch for dstocks he can get any thing you need

[hhakan]

I will check if its got the mivec tomorow morning. Regarding the roof. That cancer has been operated on. ( I had home made sunroofs on the car when I got it :p) this forum is great didn't expect such a big response. The cars got a lot of technical faults at the moment. Like the air con screen can't be seen at all to the side side mirrors not moving properly. I'm hoping this place can help me with these kinda problems

[hhakan]

Duffman its 150k on the clock and its pretty much stock at the moment. From auburn/lidcombe Sydney area

[bduffman]

Yea new motor prob for mirrors one of mine is the same
U wouldn't happen to be on your greens and have a black fto? Saw a black fto lives in lidcome there's also one in newington ( I work security around the area infact im sitting in auban right now will be tomorrow to well tonight but tomorrow for me lol )
Yea a lot of the ftos wernt looked after to well but a lot of us have poured the cash into them to fix them up and when you get compliments and people asking what kinda car it is it makes it all worth while

[hhakan]

Yeah black with greens on. I drove a lot yesterday. Most properly it was me. Newington was me aswell maybe. Picked up a mate and went for a drive at the Olympic park V8 race course

[hhakan]

So its either a gr or gx. It's a 1995 model what does that make it
No mivec no fto seats

I'm such a fto noob

[spency]

means a good opportunity to turbo it!

[bduffman]

its most likely a gr the only diff is the gx was the sports package ( no idea what is in the sports package mayb the mono steering wheel who knows )

yea i saw you last night i came from newington and crossed parra road you were the 1st at the light i was 2 cars back i turned left at the next street when u did

[Gholdwayne]

GX is a facelift GR so GX = 97 above.

This is a GR
