You guys figured out the problem or my scan just told you what you need to fix ?

[Mr. Chewbacca]

Yeah, I had taken out my intake and everything and simply forgot to plug the maf back in, plugged it in, no issues since lol

Whoops!

[keepinitkleen]

We're all there to help each other out no worries. From the looks of it we need a suspension day and then a fix all the annoying small crap day lol.

[63slammed]

sorry none of the aircooled guys didnt make it out. I would have gone however i am battling a brake issue right now.
looks like a great turn out, looking forward to making the next one.

[Mr. Chewbacca]

lord knows i do! next weekend should be on the down low

Well, next weekend it is then. I need my wheels and coils mounted. I can't stand 4x4 much longer

Come on man 4x4 look is the new thing jack it up put mudders

I just bought some of the parts to get my Jetta back on the road new o2 sensors and TT225 DV , next will be a full fluid flush, I think it might need a new cv join

[Mr. Chewbacca]

still has the Go bus scrape down the right side, thats going to be fixed soon as well. The plan my dad and I have for this car is 250Hp and sleeper look

It looks worse in person

[keepinitkleen]

If your going to do that I would suggest swapping out that trans then. I don't think that will hold all that power for long.

Its is auto so im not sure how much power they can take but its still just a plan, first is to make it derivable again, then lower it

[graynicolas11]

Sorry guys, didnt get to make it out wed as i had to work. Im hopin this week. Just got the car back yesterday and it turns out it was the aux. water pump (as i figured). My only problem now is the RF brake seems to hold a bit and it drags a long the rotor and gets really hot and ect. Put the car in neutral and you cant even push the car so that's obv. a problem. Problem is, my buddy didn't give me the piece to take off my the rims..and i don't have one that size..so does anyone have one i could borrow? if not i'll just bring it back to the shop monday. Pic below to get an idea of what size i need

[ty_vdubber87]

I have the lock socket for that but I'm located in Collingwood and I won't be home tomorrow. Your welcome to come tonight or sunday/monday to grab it if you want.

[graynicolas11]

Ended up getting the piece we needed. Thanks anyway! Back to the shop :/ We shook the hell out of the rotor and it eventually moved kinda..but its still kinda messed..maybe air in the lines?

[Mityfast]

I hope that some of our local air-cooled squadron get out to join in the meets and share the V-Dub experience.... we have some hard core V-dubbers in the 1432 Squadron.

My Huron supercar conversion is close to complete and I am just beginning a new project with a 73 Beetle i just picked up...gotta get it slammed and some cosmetics sorted and then see about an engine transplant...aparently Subaru STI engine transplants have been done and it would turn the car into something outrageous....my style... strongly considering it.

Ooo sounds interesting!

on your calipers is a piston of sorts that pushes the brake pads to the rotor. That part could be blown and is causing the brakes to just sit in place and not move forward/back properly. I'd investigate more. Air in the lines would be fixed by bleeding the brakes.

Paul, I hope you guys show up too! I love the aircooled vw's. I want to get myself one at some point.

As for the subaru powered beetle, here's a vid to wet your appetite.

Yessir, underground it is. I drive a 2slo, there's no such thing as a heavy foot

Yea cuz I'm sure that's how she wants to spend our 3yr anniversary with a bunch of guys peeing on parking garage walls two floors underground lol

I definitely think that'd be the highlight for her.
j/k, you better take her out somewhere nice, and spend all kinds of money on her, it'll pay off for you later tonight i'm sure

pumped on tomorrow!

how pumped?

lol she has to join our wolf pack somehow.

ha ha.. Change up the words a bit and Voila!

"2 of us wolves running around the desert together, in Las Vegas looking for strippers and cocaine. So tonight, we make a toast! " and cue a toast to the 3rd year anniversary?
