Great thread. Can't wait to see the finished product!

Did you notice any braking improvement after fitting the Willwood setup ?

Astronomical improvement.

Stops from 100 on a dime.

Wow, sounds like a worthwhile upgrade, Were they expensive ?

The rears just standard or you changed those too. Any braking bias change noticed.

True.
Did you grab yours of Chester ? I see he had some up for grabs earlier in the year.

Rear gets a little light, but it's got 2 front seats and nothing else inside.

So after many many many moons.

Finally got CTS engine mounts.



Quick hit down the street and no more driveshaft on subframe action!

Hopefully the coupling didn't cop to much abuse. It's been sitting since Nationals waiting for the Engine Mounts, now we can have some fun.

Although thermo fans are still broken and thermostat housing leaks..

I also have some radial 4 pot front mounts, bias is off but you get used to it just before you go through the windscreen they work well.

Good job boys!!!

It’s still alive, been a daily driver for the last ~8 months or so.

Started getting it ready for the VW nationals a couple weeks out, change coilovers, remove airbags and sound deadening, APR intake, brake flush, finally wire up thermo fans, fix the leaking thermostat housing, replace the crack pipe and fit two sparco seats and rails I found on eBay one night!

Dirty fluid


Only photo of the seats






Associated fan wiring I was able to remove


Slim fans and removed oem shroud




Get to two days before, the finally fixed thermostat housing had caused the water pump to be the next weak link

Fortunately I had a new metal impeller pump sitting at home from my MK3 dream days.





Made it to the track and had an absolute blast.





Clutch was slipping prior but only in 4th, 5th and 6th thankfully never needed to be in the low/mid rpm range in the gears to make it be an issue.

New clutch and LSD on the way for the next round of fun.
