Well - nothing much to update. Matt got me a set of Simmons B45s so I'm pretty stoked. There is some insane stretch on the tyres - not sure if i have the minerals to rock it. Much to your disgust gentlemen i will be painting the insides pink I have another set of rims which will be painted orange - I don't do silver wheels... Most of the little strip holes have been welded up and the rust around the windscreen repaired. It's kinda on hold considering I'm supercharging my Vr6  and I am running a bit low on $$$ and I want Miss VR back becuase i miss her  |

I do - but i'm keeping the Supercharging quiet on the VW forum as i just want to turn up to a meet with a monster (i'm pretty safe to say none of you guys would know anyone on it). I can start one up on here. Ordered and paid for all my parts from the US. My new head should be here tomorrow so i'll send that off for a port and polish, along with oil and water pumps. Getting bigger cam shafts and heavy duty springs and lifters. A heavy duty clutch and lightened fly wheel, new pistons and rods.... So this is a pretty massive adventure i'm going on. What i am most excited about is the LSD i have just ordered... I might actually be able to get the power down properly then! Had traction issues from day dot. The coilovers and wider wheels with good tyres helped the problem, but i still have trouble with loss of traction(especially in the wet), and i know this would just get worse the more powerful the car gets! My MK1 however is just a straight bolt in job with the engine, as I got that one whole. It was dyno'd at 135hp and being an older car - i think it will be more for looks  |
