Digsmk3=digsmk2 gti build

Post by digsmk3 »

Well boy and (girls) I was told that i should do a thread on my mk2 gti build,so here we go.I started out with a 85 black(mostly) 8v golf gti,The poor car was not taking care of very well there isn't a straight piece of metal on the whole car.(but body work is easy).The miles are very high 472xxx on od that stopped working when the motor was replaced about 5yrs ago so i am sure that it has close to 600000 miles that what the old owner calculated.With all that the interior looks great the cars runs good and was a perfect start to do a project( i hope).I chose this car for the look of it ,( its a very sexy car) and it was the first year that the gti was a golf,although the title states that its a rabbit ( what does the dmv know).After months of dealing with the title work,I started the project yesterday.With the Help of some good friends jarred(s406) and a buddy of mine that just moved back home from Phoenix (scott), we put on new tokico struts and lowering ( i think 2") springs,15' rota wheels ( don't know the name) with 195-50-15s rubber , and a single round head light conversion ,with 7' cross hairs.The car looks so sweet its more then i had expected .Today i am taking the car to another buddy to get the header and bosal cat-back exhaust put on. :laughing: Thats it for now pics will be up soon .
