My 1992 GTI

I had a '86 golf back in the day. Loved that car. It drove like a go kart. Very fun.

It sure does drive like a go-kart. It puts a smile on my face any time I get a chance to rail some corners :)

My brother and I washed up our cars and went out to snap some pics. :)

Went to the junkyard Saturday/Sunday and got myself some new parts. I picked up a weight shift rod from a Mk3 Golf as well as a programmable wiper relay. I can now set the intermittent wipers to be infinitely variable. :) Pulled Mk3 knuckles/calipers and prepped them with new balljoints. Found out that my CV drive flanges weep a bit Bleh. Waiting for my next paycheck before I buy the bigger master cylinder, LCA bushings, rotors/pads, drive flange seals, and drive flange removal tool.

I predict a busy weekend in a couple of weeks :)

Doc, when my car is done, will you do a photoshop pic with the clear hood thing for me?

Sure. Just need a couple of pics from the same angle, one with hood down, one with hood up.

I ordered a Peloquin 80% shim kit this evening. Has all of the drive flange equipment (tool & seals) and increases the factory "mini-slip" performance. Creates extra drag between the front wheels to act as a quasi LSD. Shouldn't do much in the dry, but it should help traction in corners in the wet.

Sounds fancy

It's snazzy.

Replaced my handbrake cables today. They had quite a bit of water inside of the housing, which explains why the rear brakes kept dragging. Stuck on my new rear badge.
