    thinking red might be the best option!

    so i am thinking that while i have access to the valve cover and the intake, that i should paint it a different color to help break up all the black,

    open to suggestions

    leaning towards red or golf

    been doing more work lately,

    got my drive by wire gas pedal welded up,
    pedal cluster is in. i did however find out i need a new clutch master, another 100$:banghead:
    i also got the starter temporarily installed until i get the correct bolts,
    and i also began to get a rough idea of my charge piping and intake, still waiting on my intercooler
    to get welded up before i can get all that in. also picked up a used intank pump.

    anyways pictures of the progress:thumbup:

    Got some more work done yesterday,

    Heater box is up and in, minus side plumbing.

    A pillars are in, and passenger side door cards, and rear speaker trays are in

    Anyone have a good tip for the rear card, can't seem to get the card under the clips on the window, which means in sticks out on the top.

    Anyways here are some terrible pictures

    So update time once again,

    got to work installing the sound deadening on the firewall, i had removed the stock stuff on a whim, so i figured i better do something. I used b-quiet standard sound deadening mat. It was actually a lot more work then i anticipated lots of cutting and heating etc......


    i also installed a heat shield for the turbo but forgot to snap a picture.

    today i am hoping to starting piecing the interior back together all the side pillars etc, i can't seem to remember how the rear door cards go back in, they have this wierd stacked plastic clip with screw with cap i can't seem to get back together.

    anyways, PROGRESS

    so motor is all in now, in the past few weeks this has happened

    -new oil pan adapter for turbo oil return
    -mounted the coil
    -mocked in the rad support
    -mocked in the intercooler
    -got an idea of the piping

    now i am just waiting on some turbo related bits like some random weird couplers etc, also need to get my intercooler modified to fit out of sight behind the grille
    which on a small bumper mk2 is tough anyways progress is progress

    got the bay all sprayed, did a semi gloss black, figured black is a good choice since i will bang shit up putting the motor in etc, then once the whole car gets resprayed i am going to redo the bay, more shaving etc.

    also got some other bits painted

    here is a bit of an update, finally got to work on the bay, just trying to get it back to a point where i could spray it t-red again. not looking for show car like looks here, just plain simple tidied up etc...not all smooth and perfect.

    so i filled a few spots

    then i hit it with some etching primer

    and then 3 coats of filler primer, which i will give a quick 400 grit sand before i hit it with some color,

    time for another small update,

    i picked up my motor that had been sitting in the shop for a while,

    i will post details if you want.

    i somehow broke the oil return line fitting, but other then that seems good.
    going to delete the a/c and power steering aswell eventually.

    and here it is!
