Junk bucket build thread.. well sorta
Junk bucket build thread.. well sorta
Well I bought this car last October from some chick, body was pretty straight, bougt it because it was an SE and I wanted power windows this time and the HUD worked. Was auto but ehhh whatever and only had like 129k miles which isnt tooooooo bad. Interior looked like a dog had lived in it for a while but that was all going to be replaced anyways. So onto pictures I didnt have a camera for a while so some stages of the car are missing. Anyways
so first thing I did was threw my coils on it and slammed it on its nuts exactly how it was.. dont have pictures unfortunately
then swapped 5 lug and Kazama CST's on it but once again dont have pictures
then swapped my SR into it and thank god finally 5 speed
I know swap looks like complete ass right here, when I did the swap I had to have the car from stock auto to completely done same day due to living by myself and this being my only mode of transportation
then got a rear bumper for free and some 20 mil fenders for free so threw my trashed ass old skirts on it and kinda had aero
(these pictures are from how it was in December)
then threw some paint on it to kinda make it match (its just basecoat not cleared or anything, just to make it one color)
then got a front bumper
threw some color on the front bumper
got a carbon fiber hood
had some pretty cool wheel fitment
then got some new wheels, I really dont like em just got such a good deal on em I couldnt say no
had sweet wheel fitment again
o yea did some victory pipe thing too
s14 seats and nardi wheel
then 50 mil rears
HKS intake, pink valve cover, S14 center section on my GTIR turbo
o yea ditched the carbon hood
got a works 9 rear bumper a while ago then got red and clear tails
got rear ended at a stop light but some dip shit so had to refiberglass the rear bumper
new tires
new front bumper
new clutch, old one was kinda shot
new side skirts finally
Bride Zeta 3
recent engine bay pic
I have quite a few new things to put on it so hopefully soon.
Anyways list of future plans:
PAINT!!!! SOON!!!!
D-max hood
New baller wheels, not gay shit I have now
Cage
I'm sure there is lots I'm forgetting but eh you guys get the point. I figure everyone else is doing build threads so I thought I might as well

some poor fitment on the aero, but i'm sure that's possibly by design... other than that, i love your coupe bro... i'm actually leaning towards buying one here shortly for sliding duty...
keep it up bro, i'd driver the piss out of it...
oh, and rep for a fellow GTIR T28 owner!!!!

Aero is only held on with zip ties right now, dont really care about fitment to much till paint, shoulda had paint by now, just had a couple crappy pay checks, probably gonna order paint next paycheck then everything will be fited right.
whats the specs on your rear wheels with those 50mm over fenders?
