FS: 1989 WE Jetta GLI 16v (helios)

[Helios89GLI]

***THIS CAR HAS BEEN SOLD***


It's finally time to sell the helios. I've loved this car, but I need to move on! It's been my daily driver for 7 years and has never left me stranded.

It still runs like a dream, and starts up everytime.

Car is located in Walnut Creek, CA

The Good:

95,xxxish (the cluster stopped working two months ago) on the motor and tranny. The previous owner owned a Porsche shop and rebuilt the motor and bought a brand new tranny. I have receipts of everything he did. He did a little work on porting the head as well.
Neuspeed triangle rear upper strut bar
Shine lower rear sway bar
Neupeed front upper strut bar
Neuspeed front lower sway bar
Intrax front and Neuspeed rear springs, lowered 1.5 in the front and 2 in the back.
Neuspeed Short Shift
MK3 Weighted Shift Rod
Helios fabric shift boot (awesome)
Rear FOHA spoiler
Passat slim fans
Mobil Synthetic oil only
VividWonders Ground Wire Kit.
Pioneer CD player with 6 speakers and a Bazooka bass tube
Trailer Hitch
Redone black suede headliner, it doesn't hang down! Black a,b, and c pillars
It just passed Smog with flying colors!
There is a lot of tread left on the tires.

The Not As Good:

The cluster stopped working two months ago. I was going to open it up and see what was wrong, but haven't had a chance
The freon ran out. There are no major leaks, it just needs to be recharged. It was converted to r-134
The car won't come with the roof rack.
Small dent in passenger side door, will come out.
Needs new shocks.

I just replaced:

Distributor
Cap and rotor
Bosch Plugs and bosch plug wires
Battery
Front axles
Differential Pressure Regulator
Fuel pump
Fuel Filter (In tank and exterior)
Power Steering Pump
Thermostat
Catalytic Converter


The body has roughly 215,xxx. The PO turned the cluster back to match the rebuilt engine. So, the cluster reads 91,xxx.
This car has been serviced by Tomas Sport Tuning.

$1,800 OBO
