Hey all!
So I figured I would post up the latest edition as the nice weather is upon us and everyone else seems to be whoring out there rides that are slowly coming out of hybernation
We will start off with my history of dubs!
1997 Golf...My first dub at the age of 16, I thought it was slammed haha
Then I came across this on Kijiji one afternoon with nothing to do, and by the end of the day it was back at my house.This really sparked my interest in mk2's, my buddys had always had them so I finally decided to take the plunge
My mk2 GTX 16v
Around this time I started taking Automotive service tech at SAIT, and with a diverse group of car guys all talking about this magical thing called "Boost"...I had to have it!
Mk4 1.8T with FMIC and a garret T3
After about a month of driving the Mk4 I realized that it just wasnt my style...I needed a mk2 again.
So now I am onto this...hopfully for a while to come, It is exactly what I was looking for, No power options, and a 1.8 8V under the hood.
91 Mk2 GTI 8v
First thing I can say is WOW, all the "feel" of driving that was totall lost with the Mk4 is back...its a blast and you can see why these cars shaped the hot hatch game.
That is how she sits right now, there are some changes comming and I will update with pics when they happen.
thanks for reading!
