    My mk3 ABF project!!

    Well yesterday a sexy man with a white van delivered my new engine which will be my project. My aim is to get it up to standard by the nats but only time will tell! Ill let the pics do the speaking.



    Mmmmm extractors!




    Oh lordy the wiring!



    Progress today:


    My messy garage now...



    The plan is to get the thing in and running then hopefully i can get some coilovers from the states and my new wheels will be up and fitted. Also should have new interior and vr6 brakes with cupra disks to keep my stud pattern. Let the good times roll!!

    Yeah ceramic coating is about $300 so we will see but noone can see the manifold anyway . And i dont think ill go itb anymore since it means ill need to run standalone ecu and its not really worth the money at this stage but its sooooo tempting!

    Mate i know no one can see but it really does make the difference in heat diserpation on Dad's 16v... Check out the range of VHT exhuast coat bcuz it really is much better

    Oh ITB's later on for sure

    Should be 110kw at the motor and by keeping the 020 gearbox Pedro should eliminate lots of the typical 16v lag.

    Now get that dash and engine out mate
