    How are you approaching the headers / exhaust manifold?
    Looks like yours is a MKV motor so you'd have the angled OEM manifolds to help dodge the 12v rear mount bracket.
    Cutting the 3 bolt flange off stock manifolds, 2.25" v band to 2.25" downpipes.

    My mechanic does everything by hand.

    Lost my crack pipe. So postponed on all the VR fun

    Been doing little things. Finished mounting the 02J shifter.



    Degreased all the engine bay. Had 15mm of grease everywhere!




    Tucked all the wires i could/be bothered in the chassis legs, rest is inside braided sleeve and tucked away.

    Most of the dash installed, along with 3.5 needles in the cluster.


    Best of all.


    The motor is back at my house. Awaiting it's not so destiny!

    He probably has.

    No girlfriend means you have to do everything by hand.

    More waste of time stuff.

    Painted the front crossmember, solid front bushings and the trans mount.

    Super dodgy once over on the starter
    Rear and trans mount brackets in silver. Looks more chrome though!


    All in Aussie's finest export. Because all mk3's should be done cheap as possible!

    Bitching out on doing the gearbox. But did finally swap over to the 02j selector tower.

    Trusty EAA Engineering power steering loop kit in.


    Cleaned out the fuel tank before putting the fuel pump housing back in.
