  • Whoo Hoo!!!!!

    Over the past couple days i've been working at getting my B6T running and the car ready for a safety check to get plated and it's so close now, i just need an adapter for the VAF to cone filter, and i have a rust hole in the passenger wheel well that needs to be fix before safety, i'll be driving it to my work where i'll weld in a patch, hopefully tomorrow i'll have both of those taken care of then all i need to wait for is my paycheque on tuesday to pay for the safety/emissions plate transfer etc.

    and since i have it running good now, i've been taking for quick little trips up and down the road to get a feel for it and WOW :shock: i love this thing!!! the rust is almost off the rotors (from it sitting for so long) it rides like a lumber wagon from the suspension being so stiff but it still lights up the tires in first and second gear no problem!! I just can't wait to get it plated now!!!

    If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

            i was actually going to make one from work, just to get it going as quick as i can, but i would be interested in the adapter (i'm just assumng the one i'll make may not look as nice as a pre-made one), do you have pics?

              Congratulations! This must really take the world off your shoulders?
              Do you know what numbers you have ATM? or did you mention it (forgive my memory) already?

                like hp, track time etc.? its just a stock B6T and i have not hada chance to get it to the track, my main focus right now is to get it plated so i can legally drive it on the road, and that will happen early next week
