Project E 1 1 1

Well here it is I bought a jetta! Its a 8v GTI and to be honest seems fast.

Got it last thursday with years ticket etc so its all good






I took the gash motorsport badges off and I want to lower it but the tyres are massive





Got some coilies off stoker but the tyres are to big for a poper slam!






On the list is

Some tidying up, few rust spots etc
Maybe another hood ride bonnet
Paint the bottom piece of the gril as it dont match
Red line the gril as it is GTI lol
Some new rims which I have lined up

If my mk2 aint ready for e38 this wil be roling there on 9x15 BBS's let me tel ya

looks cool mate. lowering it made a massive difference to the appearance.

Sure did mate! Shame it drives like a bag of shit, gonna have a look at it over the weekend and see if I can find a worn bush! either that or some really bad track setings on it

bit loose feeling is it mate? knew you'd get one eventually.

cool ride mate, deffo looks like the one i saw for sale in conningsby a couple of weeks ago... that drop has done it great mate... makes me wanna drop the a3 a bit but i dunno if i can be arsed,,,,,,,

theres one in the target,dont say gti but it says £300 with 6mnths t&t!

GTI's are like rocking horse shit mate

if it is then im gonna get it

Ive had a luck at the car, coz when you boot it and it goes onto the white line it tries to pul you over the road! I cant see anything a miss it all looks ok, so ive booked it in to get the Track and camber set! Hopefully that wil sort it out!

The thermostat housing is leaking, so ive got to buy a new one but hey thats all part of the fun of owning a 20 year old car

Looks alot better lowered mate

Yay!! Another Jetta

Not too bad neither!

If u wanna sell, let me know, I already got 3!!

Yup ATS cant do camber or set track up on a low car due to the fact you cant get there cheap ass gages on!
