I did have a build thread on another forum but got fed yup with the forum so this is the main build thread Hope yew enjoy
A few updated pics Underside of the car is primed and and has 2 coats of 2k of white. There is a floor mounted pedalbox on the way plus a new ecu for the engine. Still waiting on my tublar wishbones and other stuff from America :-(
Very nice indeed, is it the motor from the DC5,very interted in this project as want to do same with my berg cup mk1 golf engine wise!! Keep up the progress please!!
@ mk1g60turbo, Yep it is the DC5 engine alright. would be ideal engine for ur mk1. over 9k revs, higher final drive and off ya go Few lads have gotten 300bhp out of those engines over here in Ireland.
Right thought id better give an update on how the build is cumin along (its ben awhile) Have gathered up loads of parts etc for the build overe last few months. Got car back from paint on friday so here are few pics, will try and keep thread updated as the build goes on
Some of the parts H&R anti roll bars, altho prob won't use a front one AEM adjustable fuel pressure regulator & high volume fuel rail Badger5 Front brake kit Polycarbonate window kit Baffled sump insert and 45amp race alternator Moddified front hubs Tubular wishbones Anti-bumpsteer steering arms Brand new 17" OZ Racing Suppleggra's with R888 (for now)
Lost count on how much spent so far Have to ease up on spending for while and get building it. Need to get it as near finished as possible so i can get it corner weighed, camber, caster values and ride hight so can order up the Competition KW's
