      You need to start a thread and post lots of pictures so we can hate you for all the great work you're doing to your car.

              I thought you said you had rough roads where you live. Won't these make the car stiffer?

              Or are you planning on building a Nerf gun?

                Ha ha!
                These are just to get the gear shift sorted
                I have been putting up with missing 1st gear for way too long.

                Successfully changed out a absolutely demolished middle shift bush.
                Also weighted the shift rod and it does feel a bit slicker overall, not too mention I actually have a reverse lock out again.

                Heres a photo - excuse the oily hands, it is a messy job

                        Put 50 litres of petrol in, good for another 700+ ks - 4 days going to work and back.

                        Do MK2's have a 55 litre tank? The most I've ever squeezed in is 52 litres and that was with the gauge showing below empty.

                              Think it's 55 litres I got 53 litres in once - didn't think I would make it to the petrol station looking at the gauge... It normally does about 650k's on my tank full...

                                Replaced my heater a few weeks ago but haven't used it. Turned my heater on AND IT WORKS !!!

                                So nice having a bit of warmth each night when I drive home and it's 3 degrees outside.
