My friend's Jetta
Man, my buddy just got his Jetta done, and I got a chance to drive it the other day. It was a blast! Here are a few of the mods I remember....

Intake
Exhaust
Header
Bored
Stiffer valves
nickle plated valve guides
Cam
Cam gear
Forged pistons
Coilover
sway bars
18x8 rims with proxes.

Man, the momo seats/ harnesses just hold you in and it grips, grips, grips, grips, and grips some more. Great fun!!!!!

Well, I also got the RX-7:hehe: But, hey...if I end up dropping a 5.0 in there, I'll give you a copy of the key. Maybe we'll see Mike on Saturday/Friday and he'll let us take the Ole' Jetta out....and have some fun

Are the pics not up? I don't have any pics of the full car, but I attached one of the rear brake assembly and wheel and one of the engine before it was put back in.

It's a 94 (Jetta III). The guy whom he got if from was a ricer, so the back says "silver edition" and it's got silver body moulding. Glitchy plans to change that, but wanted to make it fast first...and it is.

Oh yeah, it's kind of a blue-ish purple color.

I kinda like the silver body molding... other then its a bit faded... It doesnt make it "ricey" just stands out a bit more... But I would change it if I had the oppertunity...
