    By the way, do you have the offset figures for your wheels, and any close-up pictures of how the wheels sit under the arches?
    Yer i don't arse around. When i want something done i get it done. It helps when your mate owns a work shop with hoists. I did all the work myself in one day. The BBS look sick on it, I love them. The offset on the front is et33 and the rear is et24. I'll get some shots of the guards. It was a tight fit on the rear. Had to roll the guards. The coils are set about half way too. I had it slammed but it wouldn't roll..

    The paint is AWESOME. One of the reasons i bought it. I was stunned he took $3k. It has no major scratch's, swirls anything. Only one ding in the rear passenger side door. Getting it fixed next month.

    Good work!

    Like the other guys have said...

    All that's required is a FULL VR swap.
    Your best bet is to buy a smashed car from the wreckers auctions, and transfer in motor/gearbox/cable shift/brakes(no suspension, cause then you'll loose RS goodness)/interior... Actual costs will be greater than what you paid for the car though! hehehehe! Been there, done that!

    Great work though!

    YEEEEEEAAAAHHH! Sweet to see another Coastie fella with a mk3!

    That Mk1 you speak of - was it white/cream with DUB-Somthing plates? I saw a swweeet mk1 when I picked up some parts from the vw dealer at gossie. Same Day I saw a black 97 vento at the dealer up the road with red leather porsche seats. it was hot.

    THIS car however, is awesome.

    Dude you should tell your boss to stick it and coem to the nats. we could make it a road trip lol - it pretty much is anyway.

    Yeah that Mk1 was mine. Gone now but not forgotten. Plate was DUB 11T. My new plate is DUB 11Z. That other Vento was not bad. Bit shabby though. I went up to have a look at it. It was an auto 260k on the speedo as well. He sold it for $6k. I got mine for half that with 165k on the speedo. And mine is manual.

    The best thing about it was the porsche seats. I see some little chicky gettin round in it now. Horrible jap wheels on it too. Not my cup of tea. But each to their own.

    yeh bro that is the biggest score. I had a chat to the seller of that other vento and he was full of ****. He was all like 'nah Jetta's are the sports model'. LOL. I reckon the wheels on that other vento were the ****test things ever. Ur mk1 was sweet. Welcome to the Mk3 Scene! lol. lovin the euro style
