Really ploughing along with this mate, looks absolutely stunning.

wheels look really good, look like they would be equally at home on a tidy oem nova sri

doorcards are a pain to get to sit flat but they look tidy! you gotta get some cable ties in there somewhere for old times sake =D

braaaap tsssh really looking forward to seeing this and kizs this year at the shows, and hopefully on a track

Yoof

Yeah wheels fit a treat, best bit is they clear the wilwoods too  ;D

Will be building the front suspension up this week, and hopefully getting the interior finished off at the weekend, and building the gearbox back up if Hayesey gets his lazy arse over here  :-*

sweeeeet, just tell paul theres some fray bentos waiting and watch him come over jumanji styles :D

ps sorry hayes =P

Yoof

Slow progress today as I was pretty hungover:

Hayesey popped in and we stuck the diff back in after the preload has been reset:



New clutch release bearing on there too.

The I stuck the suspension back on, with the subframe and new bottom arms, this made me smile  :D











Will be picking up the new compression struts next week, which are adjustable on the car. Once that's done I can drop it back on it's wheels.

Etches

Looking quality as usual yoof

Yoof

Front suspension now complete- just need steering arms, everything else is new  :)





New steering rack in:





Intercooler, Radiator, and Oil Cooler are all aluminium, and now in:







Engine bay is getting there now:



Will stick the wings on, get some tyres put on my wheels, and stick it on the ground this week  :D

I've a question - what are the plans about the brake system - 22mm brake pump (as the Golf GTI)? 256mm front disks? Brake fluid?

Yoof

Brakes are 22mm master cylinder, 256mm discs with a Wilwood 4-pot caliper, RBF600 fluid  :)

Back to the ground, and straight onto my tracking gauges  :D







New VAG steering arms/rose joints (cheers Gary):



New G60 Aluminium master cylinder:





Change of rear lights to LHD & RHD combo:







Engine will be in the next few weeks...

Yoof

Laid some carpet down in the back now:





Then got a new headgasket, bolts, and gaskets and built the engine back up with Hayesey today:







Not far off from going in now  :)
