It's gonna be difficult, my mk2 only knows how to go around corners. I'll keep my thread as upto date as I can
just a small update as my mk2 still isn't with me but I have got some new bits for it lol I have been after a set of mk2 recaro's for awhile but I just couldn't get myself to shell out hundreds of 's for seats that looked like they came from a scrap yard. A friend of mine here in the states has a set for a long time that I've been after. Well I finally got them this weekend along with this mk1 project The seats are Helios power recaro's They have some fag burns and the webbing needs to be replaced but I only paid about 250 for the shell, 3 sets of wheels, the recaro's and a hand full of other goodies. I need to build a wiring harness for the seats and then I'll put them in...if my car ever gets here that is
I got all this for 250 3 sets of wheels, center console with gauges, front suspension, petrol tank, rad, HID kit, new mk1 shift ball and the recaro's
I found out my car didn't leave England until 17 July, which was a month late. Now it's either sitting on the container ship at Houston port awaiting customs or it's waiting to be put on a lorry to be delivered to St. Louis. As of right now it's 48 days late. I'll keep you guys unto date
I wish I had extra money for the mk1. I might have to sell it so I can upgrade the brakes on the mk2 lol
you could raise the money by selling US spec items on here. I could use a bora / jetta front rubbing strip and some GLI rear lights.
I'll see what I can find. Do you have a picture of the front rubbing strips? I might be able to do something like this
My cars still not here but I think I was told Friday, I got a call while I was sleeping and don't remember most of it lol , it should be clearing customs soon. I had a little time so I did this...it sucked
