yeah you did post earlier, i had ^phinsup delete my last post because it was crappy, and i didnt like the way everything was aranged, so i redid it, i got some more pics that i took, those sexy parking lights in the dark pics, but this camera doesnt do low light well... haha, but they still look cool... for now i am looking for another motor, unsure as to wether i want to do a t2 swap and if i do whether i want to do a s4 or s5 swap, or whether i may swap it out for another s4 n/a, and then turbo it from there, the advantages that i see to turboing another n/a would be that the swap would be much easier, and that i would have all new parts, and i could choose exactly what parts to be what, the downfall being the motor isnt as strong, and it would be a higher millage motor compared to a jdm t2, but... for now i am thinking while i save, still working on selling my jetta, and i am still open to suggestions, if anyone has any suggestions lemme know, i would love for someone to suggest something i havnt thought of... anywho... for now she is my daily driver, until next weekend, when my 30 day period for when my insurance will not automatically cover it is up anymore, i dont want to pay insurance on a car i dont have to, since i still have my jetta for now, and i am going to be pulling this motor next weekend, tearing it apart, and selling it, possible selling the keg as a "running but needs rebuilt"... just seeing what i can do to afford a new motor... if you need anything, lemme know, everything works perfect but its got low compression, smokes when started, and floods every time you turn it off...

Right one sounds like you made a good purchase. Bring it out to the dyno day and see what she can do...

Ehh, I knew the car was worth more, I also had no guarantee it wouldn't explode on the trip down there. I just needed to get rid of it, and I knew I was taking a wash on the vehicle when I sold it.

Wish I would have known about it also. At least the guy you sold it to has plans for it, so it DID go to a good home.
