To manage to get this paint code in 1K is a nightmare, but i finaly did it.  5 years in the making and is finaly painted.
































 

Sincer the spring is here, i told my self to get my ass off the couch and get started, so here we go.

Looks amazing.

thx for the kind remarks.

Fast forword, it pedal to the metal on the build, as the first show is around the corner.

The tires just arrived, my option was a semi-slick from FEDERAL RS-R size 195-50-R15, The wheels are up and it's looks crazy.

We started work on the wiring, and on the haltech set-up, turns out Haltech can't provide us with a base-map for 1.8T VAG engines.

Big update,


the golf was send off to haltech mapping, it's been a hell of a ride and it's still not over.

It's been a blast, the car runs  perfect, been attending a local meeting called Eurocar, lots of fun.

The car sits in the garage now

well guys, i didn't post from a long time.

Sincer the last post i managed to broke the engine because of sandblasting the intake and the intecoler pipes, powder coted them black, nobody told me to wash them )) so all the sand went into the head.
Everything had to be brand new again.
New: Oil pump, new con rods, new pistons, new head, new K04-023

Instead of goind to E38 show i end'd up  stayind in the garage.

Ouch! That's something you won't do a second time!!

MK1 looks cracking though, I really love that  

Love the CAE Shifter      i have one in my mk3 track car and they a lovely bit of kit
