hi guys and happy new year.

not much going on with me visiting my daughter in norway,christmas,new years and january took a lot of money like for most of us.

anyway we have at least a little progress, most parts are taken off the car and ready to go to powdercoating, i will go for red on the brake calippers. only thing missing in the pic is the steering rack....

Looking good

i will go ahead and have some stickers made for the calipers, just unshure which one?

Looks good Otti like your alternator

Flake It!

i certaintly hope so, i think the drive will just be too long for me to make it. i live right at the polish border. could you please link me a map of the place? i will check out if it is possible to make it there. i will drive, if possible to the see wich is 1200km one way but there i would stay for a week. i dont know if i can justify a drive that far for a weekend. i dont have a trailer so i would have bucket seats if you know what i mean...

hi guys

i am still alive. after splitting up with the woman i came to germany for and having to pay alamony for 2 kids in 2 countrys now you may understand why my isht is moving so slow that even snails overtake with lightspeed.
had to move to a single bedroom flat and buy all furniture :bang:

today i could cross a thing from the to do list!



i wanted them since the bosch ones are really dated in design and performance but them genesis injectors are fresh and much better to tune. i was researching quite a lot and the us scene states they are way better than the rest. a smooth idle and loads of torque is what i want and those seem to be first choice. at 75 euros shiping costs from the usa to germany i had them at my door after only 10days!

things left to do
-metalwork engine bay
-paint engine bay
-having some parts carbon layered
-unshure if my fuel pump is up to the task?!
-tune
-mot
-beeing ready for wörthersee ´16

not many things but all of them are expensive, i am working 90 hour weeks atm.

any interrest in crowdfunding??
:lol:

hi guys
i had vacations and wanted to meet with the man himself chromosexual in europe but unfortunately that didnt work out. instead of sitting at home i decided to take the bus to Bavaria and visit some friends and my flipping car!!!

first time in 2 years that i was about to see it!




took out the cristal tails and put in the cherry reds, they are only 2 coloured but the pic makes it appear differend


i cut of some unneeded outlets of the water and breather pipes and welded them shut






we put the custom harness in


and i started Scratching, chisseling and rubbing off the bondo used by those idiots who had ruined the engine bay twice before that




i cut and fitted the inlays for all the holes in the Firewall not neccessary





when suddently this fell out


those "professional painters" had sprayed it right over.....seemed to have flown away when they sandblasted the bay

after some way to short time i had to leave again, so i decided to clean off the dust a Little and take a goodbye shot...




here some shots of Bavaria for no reason but beautyness








this pic arrived me today, we had Trouble with the threads in the intake mani and it took some time to have a m26x1.5 tap made...




i´ll Report back as soon as there is something to report

fuck i need to get on that damn seat that you, melli, and hp are on!

dude car is looking great! nice to see you getting shit back on track and fixing old issues and moving forward with new things too!

Miss ya bro!

hi guys, i know ist way too Long ago that i posted something, my Laptop doesnt work anymore

i bought a Garage for 1 euro (!)


my Buddy Steven lend me his t4 tdi and i rented a Trailer from the local gas Station.


Long way down to Bavaria and iam the only one who has a Drivers license to tow a Trailer that heavy, i needed to do all the trucking


we went there to Bavaria where my car is since 3 years but since my Buddy opend up a buiseness wich took off like mad he didnt had the time t finish the car. i was fed up and picked up my stuff. we went to Wörthersee for a day and i drove back to home.

i drove all together 2300km in those 3 days 1600of that with the Trailer. i was mighty surprised the tdi averaged 7.3l/100km on our way back with the car on the Trailer doing 100km/h with cruise Control.


motivated like mad i started to dissasemble even more...


i have a Buddy who is welder he did most of the welding on my car wich was a lot!

i was buisy taking care of the sparkel and Gorilla snot, that is shitty work i tell ya




more than 100 hours of welding went into the car, more to that later on

the biggest challenge on the car was that jäger Motorsport in Bavaria routed the piping this way and cut up the Chassis, and they did that with alloy piping. you cant weld alloy to steel so a had to redo the piping in stainless steel tubing





i took out the bulk where the cis usually sits since it is a Detail i hate that People even with the best bays seem to neglect..

lots of welding


i decided to route the looms along the inner Fender with studs wich we welded on properly




needed 5 mmspacers to cear the brake calipers




size reference



i made some brackets for the wiper assembly and put derust on there
