sweet man. when you get up to trying to do that monoshock, gimme a call. there's more to it than just making sure it fits. changing the angle of the linkages and whatnot plays a MAJOR role in how it'll work.
whatcha doing with that v-dub in the background?

I'll definitely give you a call when I get to the monoshock. I was a little worried about getting the geometry right back there.
The vdub is my brother's car and it's for sale if you're interested. I think he wants $650 for it. The car runs, but real rough and it won't idle. He's got a complete spare motor out of a '92 Cabrio that goes with the car though. It's got some minor rust by the spare tire well and behind the rear bumper, but otherwise the car is real solid. Interior is all there - and it's a GTi, so it's got the good seats and everything. It's faded, but complete. When he last had it on the road the struts were shot too. So it'll need some work, but it's got a lot of potential. Both motors are 1.8 8 valves. The one in the car has about 250k on it, the spare has 100k. He doesn't frequent the forums, but he has been fooling posting on the board I just installed at my site: http://octaneonline.com/phpBB/index.php His username is vahankin if you want to PM or email him off of that board. If you'd rather call him, PM me and I'll give you his cell.
