Mines starting to whine and will eventually die. So why not go big

And in preparation for boost in 2 years time haha.

So the car is finally at the mechanics getting the timing chain + guides etc done. Quite a shock as to how effed the guides were nice clumps of it were left in my sump and others left in the sieve in the oil pump.

New clutch also going in thanks to Camden GTI(very helpful people will deal with them again)

The only issue with all of this is I can no longer say "built not brought."

I hope to get her back today and go for a drive, been a long 3 weeks.

You can still say you built it as you had the input into the type/quality of parts in your car

[HaydEn]

True. Should be the last thing that gets done at a shop however.

I called them today and by the looks of things they won't be able to get it back together by 5. So I must wait till Monday:@

If you rust a bonnet, keep the current one as spare so you don't have to respray another when you go to sell.

Of course!
I bought ray's old one to do. I'll always like the OEM+ for my cars. But I wanted to run a little rat style, for a few weeks.

So I have 2 years of p's to go.. But I'm set on this car.

I'm thinking. R32 crank, .120 thou oversized pistons gt35 turbocharger.
Or a twin turbo set up, possible awd or massive slicks FWD drag attack + track attack car

What is the opinions?

Sorry for the dumb post, I'm out having a few...

[Ben J]

Realistically I'd bet nothing you just said is going to happen, no offence. Especially an AWD conversion. Good luck with that.

2 years is a long time. May as well get some NA power out of it for now, then think about turboing it when you actually can, if you havent written it off/sold it/lost interest by then.

Not meaning to put you down, just saying.

[HaydEn]

Awd was a leap I know, but it is receiving oversized pistons, turbocharger and supporting mods.
