    Muwhaha more mk3 content

    Just picked up this little guy on the cheap, 97 GLX VR6










    Motor is blown, lost oil pressure and knocks really bad. Originally I was going to buy it off the guy with no motor or trans and swap my engine and other misk stuff into it for a new shell. Then I decided I wanted it all to fix it and resell, so I bought everything. Now I think I might go with my original plan again... Still undecided but as of now it looks like I am going to swap over.

    I need to replace this rust bucket





    Shes getting pretty raunchy in her old age. Then again 60k miles in 2 years takes quite the beating.

    So you are going to stuff a 2.slow into a VR car, talk about fail. Not that it really matters as it's a fucking Jetta.

                Wow, quite a deal indeed. Those 2.0 ABA's are strong little motors. FI plans?

                      fixed it for you ;)

                      My ABA got great gas milage, Never could get it to do under 30MPG even WOT for a full tank. Just so damn slow.

                        Dunno, I noticed that when I got home too, the pics showed the glx ones, now I don't have them lol. Oh well not a huge deal to me.


                        No FI for this thing, its just a DD. ABAs are cheap as hell and run forever, 30mpg is easy to get too. If I try I can usually get closer to 33mpg.

                        I don't mind the 115hp, keeps me from getting speeding tickets, and make the m3 just that much more fun when I drive it.
