Love it! Surprised you are not going with single or dual rounds though! Don't get me wrong, I like the look of early golf/jetta lights just surprised is all!

Yeah, I just like the look of them for some reason. Plus I already have really awesome clear E-code aero lights. The only other lights I would consider are Rallye lights except they are impossible to find and super expensive.

Anyways, I got a windshield finally. Pretty happy about that.


And in other news my ITBs are ordered and should be here before the weekend!

Sooo, some stuff happened. I can't believe I forgot to put these on here. Anyways, we ordered the wrong throttle bodies, thats why they look abnormally long. Need to be about half the length for optimum setup.

I heard some people actually enjoy this thread, so I'm going to post our recent progress.

We got the Radiator mounted, as well as the oil cooler and made a brace for the front end all in one. Pretty cool piece I think.




Some detail on how the rad is mounted. crappy shot though




And..


I got new ITBs, they actually look proper now. Its crazy how tiny the actual piece is, only 30mm long with a 48mm bore.








I'm pretty sure that when I was taking about the engine I forgot put the picture of the rods. So here it is


And finally a picture of it with the trim on, because you guys haven't seen that yet either. (getting spacers for the front)


Hopefully soon the hose reel will be something wider...


And thats it for now. Hope you guys are liking this.

Pure auto porn. Really nice build, way to go. Engine swap, fabrication, engine build, Haltech, body work... the whole works. Good job!!

Re: My MK2 Build (NA 20V)

Hey guys, more stuff has happened!

First of all the we got the ITB linkage all sorted out, works perfect.


Video of it all working.


And test fit some RMs. They look real good


Except for the mad wheel gap in the back. Needs to go down at least an inch.



Front looks pretty good, still needs to go down a bit though.



Stretch and poke on the rear. The rears are 15x8.5 et8(ish) with Toyo 195/45R15. Fronts are 15x8 et14 with same tires


The lighting got screwed but you can get a pretty good feel for what the case will look like.


More pics



And got my seats in Dash coming soon.


Also did some work on the interior of my other car. New seat bolsters + R32 steering wheel + detail = Awesome


Thats it folks. Hope you enjoyed it.

Holy moly nice progress. Loving how it's all come together and digging the red seats.

Got your indirect inquiry through Shane...Drop me a msg some time if you want to try the MHW all-reds on your car.

Oh and love the R32 wheel. I need one of those in my life!

Thanks man. And you really do need an R32 steering wheel, it feels awesome.

Also I'd like to try the all-reds on sometime.

Thanks, I'm glad you like it.
