    It does feel solid. I was pleasantly surprised about how the coilovers feel. It still rides very comfortably.

    Installed an OEM textured front bumpstrip, polished the head lights and changed out all bulbs, changed the oil, washed, clay-bared, sealant and wax. Also ordered a raxle to replace the drivers side CV joint that is currently failing.

    Returned it to daily driving duties. And just enjoyed driving it around today.

    Helped me realize how much I truly hate mk3s. They are slush boxes that break.

    Clear powder coated the copper ebrake lever.


    Cleaned the carpet and swapped in backup seats while I reupholster the originals.
    Will MIG or TIG for $$$, , or trade.

    Took out the platinums and installed new Bosch Supers into my/Tinted's coupe. Then swapped the O2 for a bosch #13077 and soldered the wires. Waiting on the outer CV boot from autohausaz and we're golden.

    Rabbit stopped running. So Mat came and looked at it and thought it dropped a valve. So I pulled the head off and sure enough....


    So now i need to decided whether to pull the motor or get a new head and install it. Here is the block. Only minor piston damage on the 3rd piston
