scotty_82 Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 (edited) Ive had this for a few years now and tbh its just sat in the garage and done nothing, but moving house and getting a garage thats joined on with heating and electricity has spurred a few things on in collecting bits i need to get it back into shape.This is how it sat when i bought itAnd then the bits collecting startedwilwoods and 280mm g60 disksWeitec coilovers were fitted tooAnd the ABF engine was removed and swapped for some bits including some motordrive seatsThis is basically how it sat for a whileSo then i pulled my finger out and ordered some more bits, full poly bush set and alot of stainless brackets etcPlus i rebuilt the rear axle with all new parts and polybushes etcAnd the engine in the background is another purchase 20v from a seat leon, plus mounts from crazy quiffs.All i need now is a 8mm spacer, g60 fly and a clutch and then its ready for fitting.I got this with the subframe, steering rack and pretty much every part of the loom from the car. So a few bits that are to be sold on to finance other bits.So the car currently sits like this waiting to get transferred to the new house and its new home for the engine to be put in.

scotty_82 Posted May 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2011 Well i fitted the g60 flywheel but didnt pick up the correct bolts to attach the vr6 clutch so back to vw for those, tbh i thought they might have used the same type ones for the dual mass. Lesson learnt there.Also fitted the KR tensioner with an 8mm spacer ( a drilled out nut lol ). Also trial fitted the new mount, for which i need another two bolts for before i tighten it all up.

penry Posted May 31, 2011 Report Share Posted May 31, 2011 Good stuff! Im all set with my engine, painted up as well as the bay, loom converted to plug and play into mk1 fusebox, just waiting to find a flywheel and then its all go. Only problem is my shell needs a rear panel and paint! Big problem in fact. If youve got any questions drop me a PM as i've spent hours trying to work out the ins and outs to get it right!
