Mk1 Black 4dr project

Looks good man, I reckon you could go lower tho

Step 1. Get some linseed oil on to those plastic trims to revive them back to deep black.
Step 2. Get a Moroso lowered sump!



Glad it is getting some love. Those wheels have been around but are always looking awesome!

I will definitely go lower once ive got some tyres which will be safe under the guards, theyve copped a beating as it is!

Will definitely get onto both of those! Any recommended places to pick up one of those sumps

I'm also curious about the sump!

What size tyres have you got on the car at the moment, mate?

Progress so far has been great.

Bahn Brenner Motorsport - Moroso 4 Cylinder Oil Pan

Have you used one Mick? from what I can find they are stock depth just have the kickout to increase capacity. would be interesting to know if the oil pickup needs shortening and how much clearance it saves you if they are shallower

I'm currently running 165/45s falkens
No rub age or scrubbage, they were 90$ each

195/50s on 15x7s. Cheers man! Should be more progress in about a months time, the car spending has to take a back seat for now

Yeah i have sourced some 165/50s which i should be able to grab in a months time as above, what size rims have you go them wrapped around, any pics? I'm going to keep it safe til i have the money to have some fun with it

Ah so more and more things keep coming before this poor mk1

The thermo fan is getting low voltage, and thus my car gets hot in any sort of traffic.
The ignition barrel doesn't work at all, unless i push in the back of it and jiggle the key.
The tacho isn't wired up so i wait til the engine is screaming at me
The wiring is a mess, and the shop that i got to do it haven't really fixed that much.. but the above issues, and most importantly, <- that will be rectified tomorrow morning after 'discussions', so no bad feelings held.

I've been driving my rents car/public transport in the meantime, but i dusted her off and went out to the downshift meet at Rocklea, got a few looks, and heaps of pics! due to the unreliability of the mk1 (and resulting peevyness of the rents) and need for a courier vehicle for my uni hols anyway, i'm picking up a hilux tomorrow so the mk1 will get the title of weekend car . which means big plans!

speaking of which, what are some nice bucket or sports seats to suit the mk1? will need to consult my modplate guy for legalities surrounding them still though..

anyway! a pic from the meet, still need to pick up some smaller tyres so i can wind the coils down further

Look into some newer car seats. Check Peugot, Honda etc for a more bucket style seat that will still be nice and look OEM.

I have the 165/45 fitted to a 15x7 rims dude, no good pics yet
Should have a mk1 parts car coming soon of ur after anything in particular
