    Made this little guy( and one other)


    Then deleted the pump.


    All lines rerouted



    So I'm wondering why no one posts in my thread? Every time I post an update over 100 people view it but nobody post anything? Nothing to say? Am I on r3vs black list ?

    So I decided to go out to drift and drag on Saturday night. When I was going over my check list I saw my rad was leaking out of the seam... So I scrambled and picked up one from a friend and it had a hole in it, just my luck. I ended up using JBWELD and it worked great !! Didn't leak a drop. I'm going to replace the stock rad with a 318is rad that will help clean up the bay this week. Deleted the expansion tank.



    First run ever.


    After my wife encouraged me to fix my rad and go out even tho i was all ready defeated, I snapped an axle an hour into drifting. I thought it was my welded diff coming apart on me. But found a lose axle and my awesome wife ran to chandler and grabbed one of my spares. After I replaced it, I continued my first drift event.



    I just want to say... drifting is harder than I thought it was going to be. I have road raced and auto-x in the past so I have been on track but I just couldn't get the hang of it on my first try. I will be out every chance I get now.
    I'll post videos of how bad I was later.

    All done earlier.

    Drove it to work the welded dif is funny. I keep telling myself I'll get used to it. I want to use it for track days. But wanted to make sure everything worked ok before I put it on a shelf.

    Here is her in a her glory.

    Yeah I'm old Vw guy.

    The hockey puck mounts feel way better than my oem soft/ ripped in half ones.

    Idle is a little like a cheap hotel bed " magic fingers"

    All and all I'm very happy with them.
