Nice work fella. Yeah that radiator hose scared me when I saw it. It looks exactly like the hose on my vacuum.

How did the owner of that car before you manage to weather that hatch so bad, and the dash survive unscathed? Magic I tell you. Magic.

It looks like the car had a spoiler on the hatch.

I've seen them rust through like that on a California car.

Yea motor was rebuild with GTi-R pistons and new conrod bearings however recently we discovered the #4 conrod bearing had spun our observation of the oil pan showed it was bent and may have cause that bearing to go bad. so new Conrod bearings and new oil pan was installed.

Ok had some fun yesterday finally went into boost range this car feel amazing the rear tires had no use ha ha ha, motor felt strong at the 10psi, full boost by 3500-4000rpm and holds well all the way to 8000rpm

* After driving the car without Power steering we had decided it feels pretty good so no rush to install the power steering pump.

* Fuel pump to be installed and wires inside ebay and interior to be sorted on tuesday.
