    I don't think I saw this thread before. Thanks for posting it. I've been thinking of buying a VR4 and doing like your build. My car is a Base converted AWD TT. I've seriously been thinking about getting the VR4 then pulling it's stock engine and putting in my green converted car with stock engine mounts etc. Basically make it stockish VR4ish daily driver. Take all my go fast stuff and resto the VR4. So I'll want to powder coat a bunch of stuff when I do that.

    No problem, if you checked out the blog, you probably saw that I haven't made an update in a month, sorry about that, the motivation didn't last, but I will still gladly answer all questions here. I remember reading your build thread, because I was planning on doing the welding method on my car at the time. I like your plan, it keeps you driving a vr-4 while you build up another one. I haven't driven mine in 3 years and I am praying that it will be worth it when its done. So many people sell their cars right after a long build and I have never understood why. I still dont, but I just don't want it to happen to me.

    Good to see your motivation has returned, at least for the blog. Any updates with the car?

    Yeah, there are some updates. I really need to get on that thread. I spent a good hour one night typing up a post, adding pictures and then my browser crashed so I just went to bed, lol. I will get on it.
