i am in berlin again and fixed some problems that needet attention.
and i washed her for the very first time :tongue:


i coulnt get my hands on some tryout plates so i couldnt drive her until now :mad: :mad: :mad:
i fixed the passenger door who didnt wanted to open anymore :confused:
but it is working nicely now and the windows roll up and down properly as well.


i wanted to start her and of course the battery was flat :redface:
i charge her as i type this and hope for the tryout plates tomorrow to make some new vids for you...
i hope everyone has a merry christmas and happy new year :thumbup:

my neck hurts now from the acceleration, my bro didnt want to ride with me anymore after 2 hours because of the same reason.

seems like my driveshafts are too long since i have problems in right turns.
how do i know that it is the shafts not something else.
i just got my wheel alignement done....

oh baby!

:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

ehm.... OOPS??

whenever i go to mcdonalds i get the runs too! ;)

wtf otti??

yeah the old problem when you switch from a mk4 with 1"drop to a mk1.
i didnt pay enough attention ond the oilpan cracked.
i dont get why they made oilpans from alloy in the first place :shake:
i ordered a new hybrid oilpan from the us where a friend is helping me to get it!
thank you aaron!
i hope that the pan will arrive soon so that ronny can change it.
i am heading back to norway tomorrow :mad:
i am going to work my butt off to raise the money for the future improvements.
of course i need to do some chipping on the engine and like mentioned earlyer,
i need to have the drivshafts redone.
when the car sits on the ground i cant move the driveshafts back and fourth :mad: then it need some upholstery on the roofliner and sunroof.
i am still saving for the carbon dash and the usa trip of course.
the car still has no tüv and this is going to cost me big time...
lots of money needed, damn...

happy B-Day Otti

thank you!
good news btw!
my new hybrid oilpan arrived in germany :woowoo:
as soon as my mom finds out how to put pics from her camera onto her compu
i´ll get some fotos (march maybe) lol

happy belated birthday bro

i like your movies on youtube, keep the car running and on the road. top.

monthly update please?

hard to do since i dont see my car that often in the wintertime :redface:
but i got the hybrid oilpan from usa (thx to aaron)
here she is

is that from euronation aaron?
wow. i know nothing about 1.8T's

nope from speeding-g60 aaron dont know if he calls himself different on other boards...
today i send 1000 euro home to get the oilpan in, the driveshafts shortened more :redface: and the headliner finished...
i hope everything is ready when i go to berlin next time....
until then i work like crazy to get even more cash...
i have to think about inshurance costs now as well, and it is not going to be cheap either since the car is a original gti....
the money just keeps flying awai :mad:

hi otti how are you?

thank's for the pro 2000 info... now after some work my pro 2000 are very low... probably to mutch :D thanks

its going to be mounted in the next days!
i am in the last steps to get the car registered :)
some more testdriving in the next days on tryout plates :thumbup:
unfortunately did some thief break the passenger window and stole my radio
... :mad:
i got a new window and mounted it....
now my door handle acts up, but only sometimes :confused:
i will post more pics when i have the dash mounted

nice style, but in my personal feeling, i like more the euro style oem plus. cheers congratulations about your car

whats going on Jens? Miss bullshittin with ya bro!

hi paul :D i miss ya too, since you scrapped your home pc is the web emptyer ;)
good news on the car:
i got the kneebar mounted


a lower strut bar made


and everything registered and approved


got some licence plates with the build year


and have driven the car succsessfully to norway, wich was a 2000km
testdrive.
i was scared, but then on the autobahn i just had to overcome the fear of death to get the thrill of speed.

her a artsy pic i snapped in the norwegian mountains while on p p break



i am now in norway at my "home" and walk to work to spare the car for the weekends and meetings :redface:

paul do you still own your chromestuff and mk1 car???
i have some suspicion tht nataly makes you unfocused on the project.
remember c2c2h2o in september....when i come and you show up in a minivan i want hand you out the promised stroh80 :wow:

Hey Jens! I love that last pic! Can I please get a high res of that??? The white & blue background suits your car so well!!!

TUV? DOOOOOOOOOPE! Lovin' the CF goodness too

HAHAH on the Stroh 80 brother!

I prefer to stay on a cool forum as this one......... even tho the international forum here is a bit lacking on traffic... I am glad to see you are enjoying your car!

yeah i enjoy it a lot, i dont know why my youtube vid doest work though...?
how could i send you the hi res pic??

Jens, please check your PM's :)

i was at some meets and snapped new pics

we're glad to have you.. to keep the traffic up :thumbup:

great pics Jens ;)

hi guys!
i drove my car about 1400km last weekend from bergen to sarpsborg
where i attendet one of the biggest car festivals in norway...
gatebil festival, here a pic of the camping area:
my car and my tent :screwy:



here are the other mk1´s i could find







the black one is rwd vr6turbo with 700hp
the red/black caddy has vr6 midengine on the back if i saw that right :confused:

for more fotos look at the slideshows i made
slideshow1
slideshow2

the only thing that happened to my car was that the indicators stopped working :confused:
need to figure that out
:thumbup:

that cabby is sick

any new updates Jens?

onlythat my driveshaft is basicly gone, see in general.
need to get that fixed asap to go to germany for a mk1 gtg...
engine runs still like a clockwork, i turned the suspension as low as possible to have less problems with the driveshaft....
lets see if i can get the new inner cv joint in and be finished in time to go to germay...

that is sick otti...

you drive 2000km?crazy....

why you have the german brief?in norway it's impossible to do a legal register?

because i am german and still have a value post adress in gemany i
can register the car in germany.
if i wanted to register it in norway it would cost me like 6000$ to do it...
(customs and registation)
i dont want to give the government here more than neccessary.
they already take 40% of my payment in taxes :(

check the prices of new cars here they are 20-30% more expensive than in germany, only because of taxes :screwy:
tomorrow morning i am going to germany, woot woot!!

have fun Jens!

Please take more pics!

-Paul

oh yeah...........say hello to John Thompson for me!
Can you get me into one of his movies? :D

I love Annette Schwarz :thumbup:

so if i come to the states i bring the boose and the porn??? :D

unfortunately i cant go to germany after all :mad:
i piced my car up from a workshop who changed my destroyed inner cv joint.
-the car was not ready on time so it would have been impossible for me to
reach the ferry
- i payed 5500NOK (about 640 euro, 780$) for the job and the cv joint so i
dont have money to travel, worst part on that is that the norvegian
customs wanted 70 euro for importing tax... :screwy:

i am totally bummed about that and going to drink until complete loss of language skills tomorrow...

damn that sucks!! i'll pop one open on that thought aswell :cheers:

Why the tax, cause it's a german plated car?

I'll drink to Annette...Jens, grow some $$$$ man :)
