Hey guys, its been ages, and i kinda forgot i had this thread started heheeh :P

Ok so heres a few updates on what has been going on. Sold my sparco style seats, and just got myself a really comfy seat, with mad seatbelts for when i take the car up to the mountains for occasional runs ahaha.



Finally had my ST Coils come in from the states, which i've been waiting on for ages haha. Also got some number plate covers for some DIY fun haha, as i like to do everything myself

I had big plans for the orange one, but i have found a donor golf which has rust issues, however it has a very straight body with no structural damage, which i thought was a lot better. So, i purchased the new mk1. Oh i forgot to mention it has a 2.0L 2E engine with speed g'box, so power to ratio would be really good, with heaps of torque !!
It also has a roll cage, sway bars and other goods with it. Also has been converted to fuel injection, however i've decided to discontinue it due to being un reliable and other things. Digifant1 sucks haha













Thats where the white one sits atm. Its a 1976 Swallowtail, which is pretty damn rare. the plans for the white one, complete wire tuck, cage, stripped interior, bride seats, 32/36 weber setup, and try to get 9" bbs rs' on the rears haha.

Anyway enough of that, a few quick pics of where my orange one is now. BTW i forgot to mention, its been my daily for the past year or so. However currently its defected by the police. the police in Australia are extremely harsh, and will do you for anything modified. The legal limit is 100mm, so no cars can be lower than that point. And its very hard to clear the defect, as my whole car has to go back to completely being stock. Haha enough of Australias great police. More pics








This last pic was taken over the weekend just before the StanceWorks Australia Christmas meet. I love this pic !!

I must be the only one who likes the MkI Kamei front + cabrio body kit and the previous owner even molded everything into the body. I would have put some 17x9s on there with 205/40/17, dropped it to the floor on coilovers and just changed the grille to single round 7" lights.

these pics dont do this car any justice. As ive told george many times, this thing is fucking gangsta
I love seeing this thing drive around the streets surrounded by modern cars with their 4x4 height. Definitely turns heads

[georgeMK1]

Hahah, thanks Reece !! Its always good to hear compliments :P

[FunfGang]

Looking good! Love the little details.

[deckard]

Recently had a VW show called Dub-Stitute here in Melbourne, which went off its tits !! Anyway heres some of the most recent pics of the golf.

I forgot to mention i won an award for having the craziest car at the show !
