Same as rice. I'd love to help if I can. I know you are bit of a hike but I would definitely like to help you out. Even if it's just holding the flashlight for you lol.
Wonderful ol update for those of you even following this.
I just scored a set of neuspeed rse52 wheels for $100. They need some work and I'll probably be sending them off for powdercoating once I get em repaired.
Picked up a gti rear sway bar from a dude in Milwaukee gotta get some new bushing for it and then get it mounted. Trying to decide what color I wanna paint the rsb. Thinking yellow to match my calipers. Got the green light to buy new suspension for it too so I'll be getting some coilovers...
Ope. Couple more things. Taking it to an exhaust shop to get some blast pipes welded on. And before that I gotta undo the vband on the turbo to fix the hanger underneath and put a new bolt on it. Sick of the rattling.
Spring needs to hurry up and get here and stay here. Gotta drop the headliner and probably rtv the whole entirety of my damn sunroof to stop the leaks(I've cleared my drains religiously). Also gonna throw on some gti springs and a gti rear sway bar. Gonna paint my calipers yellow cause I'm tired...
