  1. Its running but ive tucked it away for the worst of winter. Running it about up here over the winter months would kill it I think so im running about in the TT just now
  2. Shame about the heater matrix, my corrado one went during that right bad winter two years ago and I ended up bolting the car back together at 11pm in a snow storm. Also love ventos,my brother has a belting dragon green vr one so itd be nice to see yours minted again too
  3. Still not driving it as im stuck up north but hoping to pick the car up on my next leave cycle and more updates will follow
  4. Thats a healthy project. Did you manage to source 4mo stuff?
  5. Was over today checking out the new coils for the RS and the dash is almost completly back together now so im hoping to be driving it for the end of the week. I need to get the interior sorted on it as im not to happy with the rear bench delete but pics of that as I tackle it
  6. Im still working up north mate and my leave generally doesnt coincide :'(
  7. Id be up for that . Always go to UD every year. Mk1 will be turbo'd by then and if I'm inside ill build the jettas rs' s properly and put them on
  8. The jetta wont be doing many standing starts lol. My whole plan for it is too have my 1980 car with all mod cons and nvh levels. Basically a new old car with a full colour change like it came from the factory that colour
  9. Itll stay fwd, ive been building it to various stages off completion for the last 19 years. It already stands a good chance off never being finished without trying for 4wd lol. Plus I dont think it requires it really. the brown one should end up @300 odd and the green one should be @500 so 200 odd in the jetta will be fine with fwd
  10. jetta is really needing attention soon tbh but its kinda last in line behind der tuhd then the green baron and helga the money pit
  11. its getting a bit bonkers right enough. Need to get a catch up soon mate
  12. jeez, I never clicked that you used to have the all white 5dr. Such a shame it got written off but your bound to be having some fun in the new beast
  13. nice S4,whats the engine spec on it to get it up to 450?
  14. I have an idea as I know hes sold some off the stuff of his but ill stay shtoom ;-) Another guy I know is breaking his mk3 vr with a fancy exhaust and inlet manifold along with management and some bits and bobs. All I need to find is a T4 based turbo and an intercooler(intercooler wont be hard as I know there is one somewhere in my spare room)and then hopefully get stuck into it over winter inbetween breaks from work although now that this one is running im trying to get back to concentrating on the racer although im easily side tracked...... did I say about the R32 motor ive sourced for my mk
  15. I stay about 20mins from dougs although I work 200 mile further north should be about round about xmas time though. What is it your heading up for? and it may even have the new manifolds on by then
  16. cheers mate,getting pretty excited to have some woom back in my life
  17. Decided to use the konigsport suspension I had for the racer on the vr as Id revised plans for the racer and im going with some fooncy trick track stuff so up in the air it went highsports for konigsport silverlines fronts on along with 280 g60 discs and cavalier gsi calipers(spot the rookie mistake) rears nearly fitted tried fitting the wheels then started kicking myself.....wheels hit the helper springs which I always ALWAYS remove but decided not to due to the nature of the coils fitted wheels back off,struts back off,helpers removed,struts refitted,wheels refitted,camber set t
  18. dougie cracked on with getting the engine in and it sitting reasonable on the redone wheels then I temporarily lost the plot and sold the A8,the A6 and spent the money id been saving for the racers engine on a new 'daily' it got a wash and work carried on
