the way some customers are takeing the piss with credit stretching atm  not a lot is going to happen with the golf for a while.   really thinking very seriously about calling the whole work thing a f**kit and just getting a job doing something else. and just do cars on the side

on the up side the spectial ABF hybrid i've been building is built, mapped, and ready for a car.  :smiley:
on the downside the powerband of said engine isn't going to work with the gearbox i have in there  :sad:   i need a somewhat lower final drive

the other development thats slowing thins down is it's going to be getting a full multipoint cage if all goes to plan

went for a rummage today and bought some scrap.   so i now have a blown up 6 speed converted 02A box, a crash damaged  5 speed box with aftermarket low ratio final drive ( i think )  and a worn vr6 box that suposedly has fancy diff but in unknown condition.

so now got lots of scrap to take apart and see what bits in it arn't knackerd

optimal ratio depends what gearsets i can find but think i,m  just going to need the lowest ratio i can possobly get into the box.

well i have sucsessfully managed to release the dragons contaned within 4 gearboxes.  and have a bench coverd in bits of oil gearbox.

good bit is,   the 6 speed unique bits from the 6 speed box are ok,  ( shafts end houseing and the inportant gears )   :laugh:  and looks like it will build straight into my spare 02c g60 syncro gearbox.  and out the other gearbox i have managed to retrive a 5.2 final drive.  so have a good chunk of intrestign parts.   on the downside the LSD   looks like it's been fully value extracted but looks liek it wouldn't have fitted anyway

then i pissed around for a bit hacking things up that you really shouldn't hack up with a gas axe.  see if any one spots it. then gave the golf a quick one wheel conversion
