Sick car man. Was wondering if that's a mk2 hatch spoiler that you modded to fit?
#39
It is a mki spoiler. From what I read, they are kind of hard to find.

This is only the beginning, I still have a lot left to do!

bring the front down like a half inch IMO cant stand reverse rake. looks good otherwise.![]()
#46
I agree 100%
But the front can't go any lower, cvs hit. So I'm going to raise the back end up to match:

I also need to get some very small front spacers. The inner lip of the rim will hit the coilover adjustment nut.

1.5 was all messed up. Head needs work and block has cracks.
Sold my caddy project.
Sold my bbs.
Sold my 1.8 16v setup.
Sold my exim exip's.
Bought 1.9 diesel.
Buying my old gti back.
Plans to get gti running as a daily. Rebuild 1.9 completely, turbo, put in rabbit. Make the rabbit into the fun toy and keep the gti as a stock daily.

Picked up some xxr 501's
Didn't like them, got g60's
Didn't like my 1.8 gas clutch. Picked up a Sachs 1.6 diesel clutch
Got her all back together and timed up, something didn't feel right...
(alllll the way to the left)
also, on the g60's didn't get the center caps that go with them, but the ones from my snows fit nicely.

Hey you picked up some small tailights from me earlier this year in Waddell. I was just wondering if you know anyone with some gas CIS parts laying around?? I lost one of the nozzles from my injectors and can't find replacements anywhere. Also wouldn't mind having some extra parts laying around. The Bunny is looking good. Once I get mine running we will have to get together.

I've gone mad I tell ya. I was just suppose to be putting the 1.9 in, yet I have a dash and heater core out along with most of the engine bay. Ah, screw it. Here we go!

Started to look at the 1.6 head to see how bad it really was. I also started some polishing.

This thing is looking good! Giving me a little boost to get my **** together and keep going on my mk1. Keep up the good work!![]()
Mk1 Gti 8v. My daily driven project

Rabbit project is going on hold. I've picked up several goodies that I am NOT using on the rabbit. 2000 vr, trans, cvs, and wiring loom. No idea what to do with it. Also got the dash, I don't feel like doing it anymore. So more for the collection. I'm putting the rabbit on hold due to getting a promotion (woo, go me!) so until I get my toolbox all set up for work, she's going to be on the back burner. I also traded my 87 Toyota 4runner for an E30. Go new daily!

Awesome build!! I'll be keeping my eye on this one for sure!
