    Sent you PMs, you don't need that many hoses, some of them are for GTI only.

    But no really, I like to look distinguished when I step out of the car. People are like, "wonder what he does for living."
    I just reply, "your daughter, sir." - some dude on stanceworks

    I had fixed half the broken crap but that just meant it was still halfway inoperable

    ive put that plastic thing under the carpet, im just wondering what piece of trim it is that goes ontop of the plastic cover, surely the handbrake has a gaitor

    something fairly important happened today, got the gearlinkages back on, clutch cable connected. ive always thought that people were exaggerating when they said the clutch was heavy, sadly, they werent. brake servo reconnected to the pedal and the left driveshaft is in! right is going in tomorrow aswell as the headers and then its just the front end of the engine to put everything back on. done soon hopefully!

    You'll get used to it. Just eat lots of Weetbix every morning.

    There should be a rubber/plastic cover for the handbrake to make it look pretty.

    headers are in!, finished getting in the left hand side driveshaft aswell.

    build thread :)-img_4407[1]-jpg

    and then ofcourse when doign anything fun something has to ruin it. this time it was the downpipe of the headers didnt fit on the rest of the exhaust, so lots of cutting and welding needs to be done

    more updates soon i guess
