taken from my AOC thread

Update 31-07-09

my funny clicking noise has been gradually getting worse over the past 2 weeks, from the start i was adamant that it was the CV joints due to too much stress on them seeing as the car was on the deck!

i quite like it

hardc0re_tid · 17 Sep 2009 at 18:18

did u buy the wheels unbored

nope, they were vag fitment, 57mm bore, mera needs to be 59mm bore

they are the same as the mera gti alloys 35mm offset 4x100

just the bore is smaller

also used my old bootlid struts as bonnet supports!

this is how it looked for a while

vzr grill, some pics here of what turned out """" at the start, went and bought more paint and primer etc and started over, not sure what went wrong the first time round as it was the same paint used on the bumpers :S

bootlid, started this but i think its gonna be a waste of time, the rubber seal is coming away from the frame due to rust, gonna get a new one of stewarty04 on here, used to me simms old gti

hardc0re_tid · 17 Sep 2009 at 18:20

Judgement reserved till I find out whether T means turbo.

hardc0re_tid · 17 Sep 2009 at 18:21

and here is the car at the moment

hardc0re_tid · 17 Sep 2009 at 18:21

i also got the CAT back into the car, wow, some pull off it now than when the straight piece was in

also got the GTI wheels cleaned up a bit.

hardc0re_tid · 17 Sep 2009 at 18:22

ill be getting these powder coated lambo orange with white drums and calipers or white with lambo orange drums and calipers, after a refurb obviously, but that will be later down the line, probably the summer

The Running Man · 17 Sep 2009 at 18:22

so what have u done to it?

turbo? sr20?

or just grills, exhaust and stickers?!

hardc0re_tid · 17 Sep 2009 at 18:22

just some more pics

Hxc · 17 Sep 2009 at 18:23

Other than the bonnet that looks really tidy, I like.

hardc0re_tid · 17 Sep 2009 at 18:23

right, were 80 percent there now, all i have to do is get the doors back on and get them painted, get the gti bootlid on too and get it SLAMMED!!!

picture """"" time!

and the obligitory cut! it was bad.... quite deep

The Running Man · 17 Sep 2009 at 18:23

ya i always wanted an almera GTi+turbo conversion. that would be proper smart!

sans turbo/sr20:/ im not convinced by an almera (sr20ve also worth a shout too)
