Title: Another mk2 newby
Post by: MK7 Rob on 19 October 2010, 14:14

Hi all, just joined recently. My name is Rob and i currently drive a mk5 & mk2 gti - the mk5 is the family motor and the mk2 is my project and future weekend toy. The mk2 is a 3dr 91 8v bright blue metallic but has a 2.0 8v fitted from a mk3, the plan is to turn it into a abf 16v eaton charged monster or run itb's. The parts i've bought so far:
G60 arches new
g60 brakes
g60 arch liners
g60 wings
goodridge brake lines
16v badges all round and arial
abf motor
seat abf gearbox
loom
ecu & clocks
bbs rm's - need a refurb and extented to 8 x 15 using s/s lips
momo corse steering wheel & boss
All the above still needs fitting. Would like electric recaro seats to finish it off but ran out of money!!

Welcome to the forum, that looks like a cracking project and a very nice base car.

Thanks all for the nice welcome. The car is currently sorn and off the road at the moment until i save up a few notes to refurb the RM's and a minor spray job (g60 wings and passenger side sill repair). I live in Workington up in Cumbria so it probably wasn't this car you seen, surely there can't be many on the road in this colour?
