I'm close(!) Got to them with a wire brush and some black paint (to match my colour scheme), but I have a list that gets longer each day!
Latest is O2 sensors - anyone got quotes on them recently(?) I got quoted $300 odd pre-cat and $700 post-cat - seriously looking at getting them from the UK.
Interior's close to going back in and front suspension is on the list for the weekend - some would say I should do the brakes at the same time, but I think three jobs at a time is all I can handle at the moment ...
Just dropped my car off for an engine swap 1.6L to GTI 1.8T !! Can't wait!

Yep, pretty sure it's AGU. Not chipped ... yet! I'll get it going first, then after a while (maybe a few months), when I catch up a bit on the money it's cost me, then I'll look at a tune. I'll be so happy just to be off the buses and back on the road! 1.8T in my colour, wanted this for a while, pity it took the 1.6L gearbox dying, but it's finally headed in the right direction.
I will have an amazing 1.6L (AKL) engine for sale afterwards too. Perfect condition, timing belt, water pump, etc all done 1 month before gearbox died, not 1 drip of oil, nor a spot of dirt, amazing condition, extremely reliable, just a pity the #&$* gearbox couldn't handle it. Oh well.

if you want mate i have a spare agu ecu for sale with stage 1 Apr loaded on it. btw what colour is you're car? pics?
Haha, yeah, I knew that was coming, I saw it for sale already. Nah, I'm already broke and will have to extend my credit card limit just to get it all running and back on the road. Good idea though. PM me if you still have it in a while & can handle a price drop.
Here's my car, dark-bluey-grey', aka: 'Blue Anthracite' :
