i know you are mate ive just had a good look on ebay and theres some nice mk2's about. theres a mk1 jetta aswell :( lol

little update used the roof rack for the 1st time today to get some suitcase's from my mums. i think it looked awesome the missus on the other hand called me a knob haha

also got the stickers on today couldn't get a good pic though cause it was gettin dark :(

Dan

haha beads r incredible

Suitcase FTMFW! :luff:

finally got round to trial fitting the steelies after an inspirational trip to the derby dubs meet last night. the plan is to get 2 of the wheel re-centered to give it a bit of dish and bring them more flush with the rear arch's. then refurb them in a light silver for an oem look ive also got center caps and trim protectors to spray up and put on. might go abit mental when i spray the rim protectors im thinkin white with red flowers and just use them for show. any way pics



no tyres meens mad lows :D haha

started on the suspension today didn't go brilliantly to be honest lol

first was getting it onto my mates drive :(


as you can see the exhaust came clean off the bracket was facing down so caught the curb and slid out of place ripping the rubber hangers off with it. got 2 new rubbers for £1.10 so not all bad.

the new shocks


the old (as you can see they're knackered)


old vs new. i dont understand why someone would risk chopped springs. im glad im getting rid.


well thats about as far as we got in the few hours we had on it today. we undid the rears at the top but couldn't get the bolt out at the bottom so they will be grinded and wacked out but ive got to wait untill tuesday until i can get replacements. im also going to be replacing the front cv boots, ball joints and track rod ends so they will all be ordered on monday and hopefully have them by tuesday also.

this is how the car stands atm without a rear spring


SLAMMED lol

also the rear shocks are adjustable from 60mm to 80mm and just wondered what height people would recommend

Dan

just go without springs ;) looks awesome like that lol

lol it does look good but i couldn't get up up the curb before so i think that might be a bit impractical. if i won the lottery it would be on bags :D

:D

awesome.

Looks so good with no springs lol :y:

just a thought if the car is going to be lower when done and you had trouble getting on the drive, would it not be best to do it all on a level bit of pavement or something lol

but no springs on rear looks wikid not to sure the ride will be any good though lol ....

i know what your saying about the curb but thats the only place ive got to do it. im gunna get some wood for the down slope make a little ramp. and hope evrythig stays where it should

Dan

lol yh make nice long slope to get off lol of leave exhaust off for now and just pop it back on in a local car park or something what my mate did before when he slammed his civic ended up re fitting his exhaust, rear bumper and a side skirt in asda car park lol

haha yh the exhaust wont be back on until the cars on the road

wheels primered



painting silver tomorow

wheels are finished and are currently for sale as i dont know what to do :S

think i want bbs in my life
