Well she started out a 1 owner coupe, BONE STOCK, with 253,000 miles. Bonus was, 5 spd, and 500 beans from the boneyard I found her. My buddy and I drove it home, and let it sit for a couple weeks, and scoured more boneyards. We came up with the tweed with blue/purple stripe 92 GTI interior, and snagged a 9a 16v on the way home. The same night the interior was swapped, including the german built red stripe dash for tilt. Work was now started, and there has been no turning back. I snagged the weitech 60/40 kit and a set of 'flakes from my buddy, and threw on a better stock grill and 1 headlight. The TT exhaust for a 16v went on with an adaptor, and was now presentable enough to take home. Low and behold the wife liked it better the the preceding bunny I had. A good buffing to turn the pink paint tornado red again and we were rocking. She remained this way, until I found a set of the current Keskin kt5's, 16x7.5, and 16x9. Soon, I found a set of girling 60 calipers, and snagged corrado 11.3" rotors, and ordered mk4 rear calipers, and the rest of the rear disc swap and did the brake swap with an Audi 5000 master cylinder. The 16v front spoiler went on, along with gli rear spoiler and the euro small bumps. A trip to WATERFEST netted me a badgeless grill and upper spoiler, but rt287 took care of the spoiler. Soon after, the e-code headlights went in, and the city lights are on the way.She still rocks the stock, unmodded now 254,000 mile 8 valve. Up and coming is an aba/16v/t3 combo I am working on, so we will undoubtedly wipe the little R's off all the rice!! Soon also some body work, fresh paint, and a little ice. Keep watching, There is way more to come!!!
UPDATE::::
Well I snapped the t-belt with 256,000 miles on the clock and just decided to do the swap. Specs and pics are added below. She should be running in the next few weeks.

Well, finally some swap progress, 50 trim t3, Zornig manifold, glass beaded intake mainifolds, rebuilt injectors, and a few goodies from bahn brenner motorsports. Soon that distributer will also be gone and the standalone is going in next along with custom fan wiring. I am mid-progress right now with so much in store, so stay tuned!!!
Another update-2/7/06- Well guys and girls, I have decided on another intercooler and to keep the small bumpers it has to go under the grill. Beings this intercooler is much wider, well,I kinda have to wander off track and go to some evil looking round smoked crosshairs. As soon as they are in place and I locate a 3-bar grill I will post some pics.
2/20/06 update:::Well, I hate my new front end. I kinda like the look but loved the e-code aero's for some reason. What do you guys think?

Another update!

And another interior swap

The car was not ready for Show And Go, but we sold some parts in the vender area allowing me to get some more evilness. The door cards are now in, the engine bay almost wrapped up aside from the trans swap, and the mk3 battery and alternator cables are in. Hopefully when the ecu returns, I should be able to finally fire her up! I still have a bunch to get done, but we are sooo close!
