naDintheHat's 94 gti is finally dubbin (*PICS ADDED*)

Not as impressive/fast as most of the cars on the site but i happen to like it

Nothing real special with it yet, college is kinda the #1 choice for my funds.

Stocker than Stock the way i got her.


My First Official Mod:
Jetta Swap:
Before:

After:



Let me know what you guys think. As soon as i am done with school i hope to start to build the little 2.0L up to be a decent handling car, maybe give some auto-x a try.



Update:
Cupkit is on, and very low, sounds like it rubs in the back a bit, (spacers?)

Auto x is fun a hell man! The best mod for autox is the driver itself. Get out there!

I'll try to get some better pics up of it. I should be lowering it within the month. I can get a good deal on a 60/40 cupkit, but i might just spend the extra money to get some sport springs/shocks struts package. It is the install labor that is gonna kill me.

spend extra for sport springs/struts? 60/40 cupkit or coils are your best bet.

Do the suspension yourself. It is not that hard.

You don't need much tools. IRC all i needed for my 3g is a jack, stands, 14mm, 22mm socket, 22mm open end, spring compressor (which was like 20bucks) and a big ass pipe for leverage. Then off to a shop for an alignment. Save yourself about 500. My first time took me a day.
