Hi there everyone i`d like to show you a few pics of a golf i`ve been building for about a year now. It all started in about 1999 when i bought a 1.3 golf C for 550 and started to modify it with the usual alloys bumpers loweing springs and the like, all very good but i soon got power thirsty and decided to build 1.8T golf syncro. I managed to get some good quarter mile times out of until someone crashed into me so then i converted the 1.3 golf to syncro transmission and the 1.8T engine until i lost intrest in that. So then i went out and bought a audi s2 avant and used this as the base of my golf project. I had allways had the idea in my head to spaceframe the front end of a golf to make room for the bigger engine and keep the quattro transmission as audi intended, i suppose i was just waiting for my fabrication skills to catch op with my ideas
Hello mate, Simply awesome MK2 - I have seen this a few times before, via links I've seen on other forums. It's great to see you appear on this forum too and keep the pictures coming. Your fabrication skills are just simply bloody awesome. Trev
Well how about that for a first post!! Yeah seen this a few times as well and my hat is off to you! 10 injectors????? Thats just plain greedy!
Yeah, This is the one linked from the other thread. As Trev said. Some great work! And its white too!
I should be on the road in a few months ready for a mapping session before next years shows and track days so the pics will be getting a lot more intresting very soon. The limiting factor is money i`ve only managed to blow about 10k on it so far by doing everything myself including the spray job but it`s christmas now so im struggling a bit.
Is there any additional structure to be added at the bottom of the spaceframe at the front, for rigidity?
vents are for the radiator in the rear id imagine we've been looking at your car already mate lol tis very impressive
No, this guy`s a show off. http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=104938 My hat of to him fo 4 years of his life
oh my god that is utterly insane. If my corrado is 10% as good as either of these car's I'll be happy so tempted to paint it white again!
