Finally got around to installing all the parts I bought for it within the last two months. :p
RSK coils (not slammed, but low enough for me at the moment), new strut mounts, Raceland upper strut bar, and I adjusted my straight pipe in the back so I could fit an exhaust tip on without it rubbing against the bumper. She feels like a different car now!

I used the black box on my B7 Passat. Stuff works pretty damn well and seems to last a good long time. Highly recommend it for black cars.
It has a pre wax cleaner, wax, and detail spray, all black, in the box.

Hmm my car isn't exactly black.. Almost but not quite has purple metallics through it but I don't think that should matter

Drove it in the Woodward Dream Cruise. Surprisingly, got quite a few positive comments on the car despite the rare, beautiful, and/or insanely powerful cars that were there.
If you've never been, I suggest you go next year. You can't call yourself a car guy until you've been to Woodward.

Took it out of the garage for a few pics, then back in the garage were it sits 90% of the year.
Oh yea, added Euro rad support, Borbets, and falken track tires this weekend

Autocrossed with the Porsche club. I think I had the lowest HP car in attendance and managed a time of 76 seconds. Would have gotten 74 if I didn't understeer into a cone. The track-prepped Porsche's, BMW's and Miatas were hitting low 60's, down to 54 seconds.
Not bad, considering that 2 MK4's (VR and 1.8T) were in the high 60's to low 70's on sticky tires and good suspension setups.
76 seconds slammed on racelands with a stock 2.0 and all-seasons? I'll take that.![]()

Raised the racelands in the front, installed a cup kit in the back.
The to do list just keeps getting longer the more I check off. Weird, innit?
-alignment
-window regulator + motor
-e brake cables
Lesser priority is:
-order cx racing coils
-reupholster headliner (****ing monsoon)
-patch rust on quarter panel
-new fender and hood
-PAINT
Hopefully most of that will be crossed off before H20.

After only driving 13 miles in the past almost two weeks, I finally had to run an errand that involved using the Interstate. Rev limiter in 2nd and 3rd twice. Really wish I had a VR.
We need a series like this state-side. I'm in if there is one, or will be one. VW Cup 2013, anyone?

Cracked my brand-new LIP trying to get out of father-in-laws crazy driveway. PISSED!!!

She keeps tellin me you should sell that POS everyday. And then I consider the alternative. A quiet, boring, lil eco box. And then when im on the on ramp to the highway I punch it and wind out 3rd gear and hear that intake and the exhaust together in perfect harmony as it rips a humongous hole in the ozone layer and causes the spontaneous explosions of tree huggers faces . Imy VR6!!!
