welcome! this thread was originally on a different forum but everything was purged...rip frame bang gang
this build started off as an 07 VW Rabbit
and we currently are at a 2007 BMP coupe VW GTI em kay five as the kids say
most of these updates are from way back. I'll try to add a timestamp here and there...here we go
this was the rabbit that started it all...bought it completely stock back in 2010 or 2011
it had the usual vw issues
I did some exhaust work to it lol (+69hp)
bought some wheels after it was on racelands with FK Highsport(?) iirc front spring in the rear of the car. The dude would not budge on the price...and lied about the wheels. Once had a crack in it.
forgot to close my gas cap once and and started to panic bc could not figure out what this light was for
bought a pair of amg aero Is...they needed some love
couldn't fit the rear crossfires so i ran a drift spares 'look' for too damn long
did some idiot shit in my young days after I had bought a set of Brabus Monoblock IVs (wish i never sold these)
my friends tried to suck each other
I got rear ended once so I took the rear apart
car looked pretty decent here
did some more half ass 'refinishing'
got some ksport rear camber arms.....don't ever buy these if you're low low
drove to LA and got a flat + a ticket
but i got to see a space ship so it was worth it
UNTIL I WAS HEADED BACK HOME AND SCRAPED THROUGH MY ATF PAN and had to be towed 150 ish miles
at this point I thought my trans was done
I had driven about 50 miles without realising I was leaking fluid..
gave me some time to hang with my other car
after I did a fluid flush and a new pan I got a MKVI headunit
bought a terrible ecs skid guard that ended up cracking the bottom of my radiator support on the first day
terribly lazy polished the brabus wheels
got some ug oettinger skirts
curbside maintenance is always fun
got some BC BR extreme lows
did some maintenance
some oil pan action
got a votex rear at some point. It had a huge crack in it but I got it for $20 so it was wel worth it
did my mounts
those brabus wheels really work in the rear
I bought a saab at some point...it was a real saab story
got some cool tails for $50
bought a spare e21 for some cool stuff
finally got the rear crossfire
Scraped through my fuel tank wow that was so fun...
this is where I bought the gti and was swapping everything I could over. put the rabbit up for sale at some point too
was driving to sf when my fuel pump started cutting out
j chillin in the parking lot after work
i thought i was cool.
broke my fuel pump on 580 on my hbd
had some g35 wheels at some point
my power steering went out from hitting the ground too much...decided to upgrade the pendulum bushing while swapping a new subframe in
lol the old one was cracked.....
and this is essentially where i am today. I'll try to update with a better timeline and mods
