That looks boss man! Do you have a closeup of the fender/tire? I'm still debating 165/45/15 and 165/50/15 on a 15x8. For now I'm gonna run them on a small bumper/no flares Jetta for a bit then when my swap is done they'll go on my big bumper/8v flares Jetta. The 175/55s that came with my wheels are getting destroyed by the fender

[PigPen14]

replaced the fuel line that goes from the pump to the filter cause it manged to spring a leak, also went a head and changed the filter to because i had a new one sitting around.

[audi80Quattro]

drove it a bunch.

forgive the hipstergram shots

[littlebill86]

Mk3 subframe, steering rack, tie rods, control arms, ball joints, axles, and 10.1" brakes...

just tore my front end off tonight to do the same, im using vr6 control arms axles and 11.3 brakes, i made my own heim joint tie rod ends as well.

[joseph052188]

Finally back in the mk2 game :-)



Also picked up these wheels yesterday from polishing for the mk2

[RobMarkToo]

Well, yesterday, picked it up from the shop and drove the hell out of it. Finally took my mom for a ride in it through the twisties and blew her mind

[Scotty_2.0]

Centred my steering rack, replaced both tie rods and did a quick eyeball alignment. Also installed my Neuspeed 28mm rear sway bar

[izzo]

Front passenger side brakes started grinding yesterday, today I put new rotors and pads.


Passenger side inner brake pad had no brake compound on it at all,
driver side pads had the brake compound crumbled to pieces when I took the pads off.

I have a question and it would be stupid to make a thread about it and i tried searching.
I have an 86 jetta GL. Came with 13"s with 175/70s. I am going to get BBS RAs, 195, 50 r15s. I figure this will change my speedo a bit, how can i get it back to being accurate? or is it not going to make a difference?

See how much of a difference there will be: Wheel/tire size comparing calculator (in the middle of the page)

[R-Dubya]

Decided that mother nature is probably trying her hardest to force me away from using CIS in my 16v swap since I can't find the harness that I need after searching since Wednesday with no luck. Now I have to buy a fuel rail and a chip, with barely any money.

Blah blah, long story short I really need a 16v fuel rail with fpr holder, and I need it now. If anyone has one, please message me immediately. I will take it right now.

[oldskoolracer]

Got all my front end parts from ECS last night! Gonna be getting a k-frame and control arms from a local yard on thursday for $200 But at least Ill be able to start getting things back together.

[BeetleGpx]

Sent it to the Dr. this morning for a new clutch, I went down to Auburn and picked up a new toy:

alright thanks for the help.
also, original vw lugs should be good for bbs right?

[91montanagti]

today i took the tranny out and ended up pulling the motor and started shaving the bay.... amazing how it always ends up being way more work than i wanted to do and 95 % of the time its personal preferance not mechanical...

[BlkMaGiC 3526]

Had my GTI for a month. It had some glazed hard water spot windows. I could barely see thru it. Spent 5 hours cleaning them but well worth it b/c now I can see thru them and cleaned my black mk2 floor mats I found at the yard

[dieselover]

Finally test fitted my RG's on 165/45's and I am abundantly satisfied



Next is swapping in my 1.9TD with mk3 subframe

[The Janitor]

Bought, cleaned up, and installed a bunch of misc parts that I needed to finish my Jetta off.

[BGosnell]

Gave the 87 jetta a wash and removed some wax stains.

[Fizzo20]

Vacuumed the interior, cleaned the door jambs and windexed all the windows. Gonna wash/wax tomorrow before the IllMotion show in Calgary!

[Bootlegger213]

Painted the old girl today

Before


after

[WannabemkIV]

Paint came out pretty good man. I dig the color.

[respect_my_fast]

thanks man, the black isnt finished, but i ran out of paint

[the sneakiest panda evar]

pulled the following items from a parts car to swap into the diesel:

sub frame
lower rad support
front tie bar
motor mounts
complete steering rack
front brake lines
water pump
rad hoses

[joseph052188]

Tested out the gottireps on the mk2.
Looks like I will need more than 20mm to make it poke a bit more. Also the front won't go lower since the wheel will hit the coilovers spring. The rear is all the way down :-/, I actually like how the fk's ride.
