Dylan's MK3 Golf build

[DylanMK3]

My old car was a hilux haha. Didn't notice it because I leave for work at 3.30am and get home late lol. #ElectricianLife. I'm starting my fixes tonight when I can be bothered lol. Starting with fixing my front lip and exhaust heatshield :3

Thanks for the comments. It's good to know there's a nice community out there bahaha.

Just a little update. In my previous photos you may notice that my lip was crossing over so I pulled it off (hah) and re-attached it in the correct place.

Got the car cleaned up and ready to go on a cruise to Lithgow via bells line of road. Here are some photos from the cruise.






When my tax comes through, it's time for a set of JOM coilovers and some new wheels! I need my guards rolled so if anyone knows a place in Sydney who does rolling and is decently priced, please let me know either in a PM or just post here, thanks! ^_^

Car looks very clean

Thanks Dylan! I seriously need my guards rolled lol. So much scrubbage it's not even funny lol.

Judging by the amount of gap that you have between your tyre and arch up front, then i highly doubt rolling your guards is your solution let alone your problem to your scrubbing issue.

Are you sure it's not scrubbing on your inner arches when turning?

[DylanMK3]

It's my rears when I hit a bump man. The suspension is very sloppy and I don't even have much weight. I think you'll find once I get my coils and guards rolled all round it would be sweet!

Damn, your rears scrub at that height?!

Welcome btw Love me a white Mk3

[DylanMK3]

Yessir! thanks Druce

Update, driving home and 3 streets away from my house and what happens? CV joint bolts snap on the right front wheel. The thing was only held in by 2 bolts and they both snapped. I tried to fix it, sat out in minus 3 degrees for 2 hours only to realize it's unfixable unless I took the whole suspension setup out. So I pushed her home in the cold for 3km's to where she now rests out front of my apartment. I either need to find a new CV or attempt to fix my old one but I think getting a new one is much more realistic. What a crap end to a good day

Updates soon!

[dylan8]

Are you able to get the snapped bolts out?

[DylanMK3]

I would be able to if I whipped out the dremel and made my own thread. But I think it's a better option to replace both CV's. Just need to locate a shop who sells some :/
