jettaTx - mk2 g60 conversion

[jettaTx]

My intercooler pipe should be arriving shortly friday or saturday and fingers crossed the car will be back in use next week which will be just in time for the newark meet!

  The car has its front end back on now and its running with a few minor adjustments to be made here and there to get it sorted out, had a change of plan as im going to be keeping it off the road until spring next year in the mean time it will have the RM alloys refurbished 4 new doors 2 wings new front bumper new arches and side sills a scuttle panel and undersealing done basically get it ready for showing it next year like new. Oh and a supercharger rebuild in there. with g60 brake set up! Keep meaning to get all my pics posted bt never get round to it

The car is nearly there just a few finishing touches needed and its in for a day in the garage on monday for this so not far off finished! Ordered a jabbasport induction kit with engine heat sheild- looks a fair peice of kit!! Need to have the exhaust sorted out when i get it back as ive ended up with a corrado zorst as a temp job till i chop and weld the cat out of it and match it to my seibring exhaust set up. Also my alarm needs rewiring to the car as its attached to the old 16v loom still!! Also a trip to the bodyshop is in store before its going back on the road. Think its best to take time rather than rush at it and get it wrong the longer the bodyshop has the car the better i think!
