Because of his work at home, he has been exposed to many classic cars since he was a child, such as Pu Sang, Santana 2000, Peugeot 505, Jetta MK2 and so on, among which Volkswagen's car is the most popular one. Because of this, Kobayashi has more feelings for the brand Volkswagen. For what? Magotan B6 car, actually Kobayashi was circled by his big brother R36.
Recalling that Kobayashi was still in junior high school, I first met R36 from a car magazine. At that time, I was fascinated by its "Biscay" blue and the front face that made people excited when they saw it. From then on, Kobayashi planted a R36 seed in his heart. In retrospect, I chose this B6 only because I was obsessed with the appearance of R36. However, today, Kobayashi is still studying, suffering from cash constraints and not having so much spare money to collect an R36, so he has to settle for the second best and choose a brother model B6 on the same platform for some later modifications.
Kobayashi's B6 is the top model of 20 1 1. Equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged second-generation EA888 engine +DSG gearbox. The original factory output 200 horsepower, and it can run an exciting 7.4 seconds 0- 100 that year. You know, this is a pure B-class car, and it can run like a rabbit with more than 2 tons. His strength still satisfies Xiao Lin. Moreover, there are many modification schemes for this powertrain, which are relatively mature, and it will be more convenient and safe if it needs to be upgraded later.
When Kobayashi bought this car, it took only five days from paying the deposit to picking up the car, because he bought it from a used car dealer found on a platform. And its price is very cheap, only tens of thousands of dollars. This price is very acceptable even for Xiao Lin, a student at school. However, there was an episode after the car arrived. Xiao Lin found that the car had an accident and adjusted his watch. Fortunately, there are no major problems with his water tank rack, engine and gearbox. Although psychologically uncomfortable, as a second-hand car buyer who knows nothing about it, Kobayashi is ready to take this series of risks. Therefore, I would like to remind all riders that when buying used cars, we must pay attention to the choice of platform. But to tell the truth, Kobayashi was indeed cheated. Everyone should take Kobayashi as a warning and pay attention to lightning protection.
Learning from the failure of buying a car, Kobayashi decided to do his homework when changing cars. At the beginning of the purchase, the whole vehicle is replaced with oil and water, and some wearing parts are replaced. After these repairs, Kobayashi installed a set of short springs and replaced them with a set of tremella, reducing the height of the original SUV to about one finger. It's really "a low one covers a hundred ugliness". After the car body is lowered, the whole car really looks more harmonious and has an inner taste. Originally, B6' s lines were beautiful, and this change is the icing on the cake.
It was a group of short springs that pulled Kobayashi into the pit of playing with cars, but after it got on the bus, Kobayashi didn't like to start the original hub Tai Su. So I scrimped and saved, and ordered the first set of casting wheels at Chesheng. At that time, because of the annual review, it was not changed to a larger size, and only the original specification of 17*7.5J was maintained, which even seemed a bit strange. In fact, because of the lack of budget at hand, we can only make do with it. But after the change, it really looks a little better than the original.
After changing the wheel hub, I wanted to adjust the front face, so I ordered a set of black screen and R32 screen logo. The original chrome-plated screen was a bit old-fashioned. Later, a set of front shovels was added to make the front look less monotonous. At present, his front face is still like this, and it is planned to replace the front bumper assembly of R36 later. After changing the front face, the short spring can no longer meet the demand, so Kobayashi changed a set of twisted-tooth shock absorbers, which made the handling and comfort feel slightly better than the short spring. Maybe the support of the original shock absorber is really poor …
The hub shock absorber has moved, and it's next turn to exhaust. A set of manual valve exhaust +R36 double rear lip was recovered from riders, which is completely compatible. Because there are too few parts modified by B6, the resources of riders are also very few, and this set of exhaust is also frugal, so it is difficult to squat back. The sound is not bad, not very fried, but a deep voice. Xiao Lin doesn't like bombing streets very much, so he is very satisfied.
This B6 car has a long way to go to repair and refit, because it is an old car and often has minor faults, but it is also a different kind of fun to repair. Two days ago, new wheels were replaced, and 19 inch new shoes are more in line with the temperament of this car. Later, we should also consider the upgrade of brakes and power. In short, the road to modification is long, and comrades still need to work hard.
Kobayashi also took his Magotan B6 to participate in the 2020 Taihu Bay Automobile Cultural Life Festival. As a college student, his spare time has brought a lot of fun to Kobayashi and made him know many riders. The atmosphere of communication with everyone makes Xiao Lin very happy. Kobayashi thought, maybe he will enter the automobile industry in the future, I hope so.
