CrankWork - Canada
 

hey crew, I finally decided to start posting here, been lurking for quite a while now.
I'm from Toronto, Canada and I drive Mk2 GTi G60. Pix will be posted ltr on tonite, for now, I'll just post a pic proving that Tjaap actually does have one car that runs! :eek:

welcome oleg!

hey, wassup marc? :D

the man from rusland / canada :rock: .....welcome

now where are the pics? :D

and here... not much done to it yet. I got it running just last week! threw in a set of patec coilovers right away and installed control arm/sway bar poly bushings. oh the stiffness! :D







that mk4 with a wing is an real racecar, belongs to European Speed Sport. local vw tuners.

Cool ride and welcome to Volksforum Oleg :D

Whats the story on the black Jetta in the background ?

jetta is actually blue lol its one of those weird mk4 colors. anyways, its a racecar, belongs to a shop next door - European Speed Sport. local dub tuners. They always hook me up with misc shizz my car's missing. :D

Cool :D

i like the 5spokes mate.. period correct as you mentioned

yup, nice and simple

thnx guys, those wheels r my temp wheels - got em from my friend's dad lol
now i gotta kick this friend's arse to get my bbs painted already!!!! :D

what are they? AR or something?

lol
it would be a safe bet to say they r! :)
what do u think about polishing those spokes or painting whole wheel black?

up.date.
 

well...i can't be arsed makin my own project thread in mk2 forums, so here's a quick update:

Installed bbm lysholm kit and cleaned up the engine bay a bit by removing charcoal canister vac lines octopus! Just past the break in period on the charger. Still got a stock pulley on it, running with an autothority chip and a 3.5 bar fpr. I'm quite impressed with the charger's performance; pulls harder than my old g-lader with a 68mm pulley!!!! Tbh, it did have a cracked silencer box and all kinds of leaks, so, it's no surprise :D




Cheers,

Oleg.

updates yet?

ok, not much been happening with the car recently, I'm just trying to keep it alive. It's winter in kanada. :mad:






altho, I finally painted my summer wheels. 15x8 RMs painted aviator grey. That moroso valve cover is not quite finished yet - I'm going to polish the fins then clearcoat.




cheers,

oleg.

p.s. oh btw, 18psi pulley and a 42lb injector chip is in the mail :thumbup:

crank work
 

hi crank's where are you in toronto?

I'm in the west end! how bout u?

chekdis now ppl: my winntar beetar!!!







mk3 canadian model cl. high mileage but barely any rust. b3 passat suspension! cleaned it up, threw my winter wheels/tires on and got a set of mk3 vr6 gti seats last week! :D

:thumbup:

I really hate winter but i can't wait to see how this thing does in the snow! :D

Oleg, you need bigger tyres...

go rob a Jeepdealer ;)

alrite! the snow has fallen. mmmmkayfree beater did very well on it's first mission! mk2, however, really didin't want to see any snow - as soon as the first snowflake fell on it, the heater motor stopped werking. great. more shit to fix...

and yeah, the bigger tyres would look better, but these r good enough. it's still a street machine! :D

Do you know the part number of the right mirror of that mk3? I need that number for the VW dealer, it's for my Jetta mk3

i could prolly find out. but whats so special bout it? plz pardon my (complete) ignorance when it comes to mk3s :D

is it possible you wil find that out for me? Well there a text in the mirror/ glass; thing are closer than they.....
they can't find that number only of the Europe mirrow/ glass.

oh, right... things r closer as they... :D
i'll see what i can do; too bad we just sent a perfect set to scrap :(

Yesss that's what I meen:D Thanks for it.
It's ever where the same haha. to bad for it

right on!

and just cause I'm drunk and going down memory lane:
