Re: New GLI

I can't wait to see this thing finished! It's gonna be pretty sweet!

I couldn't help much because I've never done anything like this before, but I guess it would be an opportunity to learn haha. Maybe I'd drop by if you don't mind

Yeah absolutely dude, that's the reason why a few people are coming over. And an extra set of hands is always handy, especially when putting in front struts or something. My thought is have a few guys on each front strut taking them all out and then drilling the towers, then installing the struts and running lines. Exactly the same as coils and good learning to be had

Re: New GLI

Re: New GLI

First poster! Just because everyone's in bed at my house when I got home, therefor I have nothing else to do. Great meeting everyone today. Sorry I wasn't more hands on but Ryan seemed ok with doing most of it lol. Hope to make it in again soon.

Re: New GLI













It was good to meet whoever I didn't know before today. I am tired but glad that it's done. A few problems were encountered but I would say it was a successful day!

Re: New GLI

Re: New GLI

Good to see and meet everyone.
Car looks great!!! Good job to all the guy who helped Sean out.

Re: New GLI

It was great to meet some of you guys! Everybody chipped in and we got a lot of work done in one day.

This sums up Patryk's day.


Martin installing the rear drop plates.


George showing off the PITA strut.


Sean being an engineer and doing the clean work.


Patryk really saved our asses on this one. Stuck at BP's at midnight with no jack and a huge leak.


I didn't get any decent shots of it on the ground so I'll leave that up to Sean.

PS: Martin, you have to teach me how to take better pictures.
