MK3 Anni
« on: 24 August 2012, 12:51 »
So after killing the bora i had on air i decided to get a cheap run about, this was on Ed38 so went to have a look, it looked pretty clean, couple of slight rust bubbles under paint in a few areas but seemed to be pretty solid.
Bought it and drove it home the same day.



First job was to take off the skinny Anni steering wheel and fit the one from the Bora



The stereo was absolute crap compared to the Bora so made a sub box and amp rack







Also tinted the headlights



Just need to get some new speakers for the doors, got a set of mk4 seats that i may fit and have a few plans in the pipeline interior wise.

Yer want some coilies to sort the reverse rake out, got some 16" steels that I want to get banded unless I find some nice 17s, further down the line I'm going to 1.8t it and generally tidy it up.

It's got a cat back milltek on at the mo so thinking of either changing it for a standard exhaust or finding a silencer to fit as its too loud for me, think I must be getting old used to love a nice sounding exhaust.

I'm saving for my wedding for next October so majority of money is going on that but still doing cheap mods to tidy it up/make it run better.

Cheers, it's the first time I've made a fibreglass enclosure so it's not the best but sounds half decent.

Smashed the gearbox on the bora, was only a 1.6 so it wasn't worth repairing so stripped it.

Even though you'd gone to the trouble of putting air on it?...
When is the golf going to be on it then?  :grin:

Yer, I sold it all off to put towards other stuff and to be honest I wasn't that impressed with the air, don't get me wrong it was comfy and nice riding at whatever height but it was only a manual kit and was a mess about getting it all the same height etc. If I was to go air again it would be a full digital kit but that won't be happening in this anyone soon, coilovers and Tarmac kissing is where it's at.  :smiley:

Cheers, my pads turned up today so hopefully if it's not raining I'll be able to give it a machine polish this weekend.
