What I did this weekend!!

[Jand3rson]

This is one of the main reason I wanted one so bad. The flares are so close to my M it is stupid.

For sure. It's like the bastard love child of an E30 M3 and a MkII GTi.

If only I could get the M3 AWD, you will not believe how hard this pulls out of corners. I think the m is still faster but have not driven the m for a while. New intake and other mods being done.

The Rallye is the best looking car VW ever made

I have to agree.

[Jarvis]

Are you going to get different and hopefully wider wheels? The ones on the car now don't stick out nearly far enough and their design makes them look like they're begging to be curbed.

The wheels are pretty wide, if I go out any further I will lose some of the travel, as well it has coilovers so I can lower down more for track and raise it back up for road driving. I am looking at having Fikse build some one off wheels but that is just in the works.

Thanks,

There are just over a dozen actually. got my feb 2006 edition of euro tuner here and they have an article on a rallye meet. " we featured a total of five rallyes driving from Maryland, Georgia, Kentucky, New York, and Virginia."
"Only 5,000 were produced back in 1989. Then, because of the untimely death of the head of VW motorsports and impending financial trouble at VW, the program came to a halt."
There is one pictured that is identical to yours. But with different wheels.
Very nice article, very nice cars. Almost looks like a touring from the side if you subtract the fender flares.

Cool,

I heard there where about 20 in North America. I drove 3 of them before buying this one. I wonder if there are any charts on the color combo, since I have only seen one this color and it was in Germany. The color was not sued on any other Vw. I will have to go look for that issue of Euro tuner.

Looks fucking sick, I don't think I have ever seen one of those before. Nice pickup.

[Iain]

That is awesome, I'd love one of them. We never got ANY of the good VWs in Oz :(

And a Lancia Delta Integrale Evo 2 is one of my "ultimate" cars... ahead of even an E30 M3...

[Jand3rson]

You guys didn't get the E30 M3 there either, did you?

[Iain]

No :(

Nor the Cosworth Mercedes, Sierra Cosworth, or that cool Group A Alfa either. Just add it to the massive list of decent cars we got.

Oh, but we did get R32 GT-R Skylines (and have been getting so many grey imports you can get a GT-R from $AUD18,000). Wootlar.

[Iain]

Oh, and we also missed out on diving boards and were stuck with Euro-spec E30s... D'oh. :(

[herragge]

Great find Tyler! I have never seen one of those before but when I saw the fenders the match to the E30 M3 was unmistakable.

Wheels do need to be pushed out a bit more to sit flush with the fenders tho imo.

Where abouts in Canada did you pick it up? Interesting that we always get some cool cars. And can also import ANY sweet cars over 15 years old. R32 skyline for cheap neone?

Good Luck on the mods.

You are a lucky man!!! Simply awesome, I've never seen one in person (even though I'm not to far from NGP in aberdeen, md).

Don't mean to thread crap, but here is on built by ngp and is being raffled off right now. This one pulled 549whp at 30psi (turbo of course).

As for the syncros, Peloquin offers custom beefed up syncros (as I recall). The syncros in these are supposedly similar to those offered in 16v syncro passats.

Hey the NGP car is pretty crazy. I spoke with them about getting one. I am playing with the idea of running Fikse Fm10's, so this will give me a good option on wheel placement. That is if they will build the wheels.

I just order virtually every OMP part made for this car. The motor I am looking at will push over 350 if the guys is to his word. We will see! I have 4 big projects going so a new HP motor really is not a concern for this car.

Thanks for all the good words. I should havea webpage built with a lot more pics soon.
