Long Term B3 Passat Build

[Pat]

Been around for a while, don't post here much but I figure I'd introduce myself. i know some of you already from other forums. (pw211/pww) Here's my passat project, its very low, and I'm "in the process" of getting some RS's redone for it. I'm a freshman in college, and its back home so progress is very slow, but I'll update whenever I get stuff done


All it is is low right now, interior is coming along as well!

Sorry these pics are shitty, I meant to take more before I left but never did..









And fitment test for the RS's. Think I should go for a bigger lip on the front or keep it at 1"?

YES! B3 love. Go bigger! I mean, either way will be sick but id love to see some front poke

[Pat]

YES! B3 love. Go bigger! I mean, either way will be sick but id love to see some front poke

thanks and yeah I'm considering either. Obviously the back will have more poke


I've seen you on the FTWLTBDWICTW thread on audizine right?

Thought I would bump this thread since this baby is going to finally get some work actually done now that I'll be home this summer. RS's are off getting painted faces, and new hardware. Interior is all out, new carpet is ready to go in, and seats are getting ready to get reupholstered.

My pops wants to give it a respray (same color, don't worry) so that'll be happening soon, and then hoping to find someone to help out with some of the basic electrical issues I'm having with the car (I have no experience with electricals, and I have probably picked the car with the most electrical problems in the world. (side note I **** automatic windows now.)

No real new pictures since I haven't been home, but Paco says hi:




as for what I'm doing with it, I want to make it work/look like a B3 passat if you bought it new. All black OEM interior, stock outside except for coilovers and the RS's. I want a clean car that works well.

Nice wagon bro!

[Pat]

Thanks! Haven't updated in a while, the interior is actually almost done. Seats and carpet are in, just missing some pieces in the dash (vents, radio), and the door panels are in. Need to jump start it and see what works and what doesn't

[Pat]

I know I said long term and I meant it. Car is back from the shop and the electrical problems are fixed up. Oh and just got this picture in, cannot wait to mount these:

[RCSummers]

so nice, what size tires you going with

[Pat]

^I'll be figuring that out when I test fit them on the car. Should be a pretty solid amount of stretch though to fit them with how I have them going. Should be perfectly flush in front and poking out back,

[NeedingAnAudi]

Wait a sec......

PIITB PAT?? You have a b3 wagon? I'm jealous.

[phish sticks]

Paatttttttt. What's the dealio with this?
