Reckon for your budget build still stick with a VW gti of some sort another golf variation or polo gti,you’ve created a great following with this set up for sure.
Much love from Canada. Looks Sweet. Owned a '99 Beetle for 21 years. Currently driving an MK 7.5 GTI and wishing older Golfs were readily available on this side of the Atlantic. Would love to do a build like this.
@@Project7YT Been watching since Green MK3 Wagon Days... As for importing from US, cost of importing and lack of quality older vehicles are an issue, especially when you compare to what is available in the UK...
Cracking video Lewis, can just imagine the amount of time you must spend talking over clips/finding other clips and then editing it all together. Love this new style 👌🏼
Needs a nice engine on it'bs and a nice sound setup and would love to see it on the wheels you where building for it and I think next project would be a lovely caddy old school bagged and just styling lots of love from south Africa Johannesburg
Good color choice using red, I used red on my mk3. I cleaned the pistons and slides since I had everything apart, used oem disks and ceramic pads and with no ABS, it works alright. And also the brake fluid was brown😂
Loving the project. Do you have pictures of the extensions you do to cover the gaps betwen the Corrado seats and the rest cards. I am doing the same and your is the first i Saw with the gaps covered. Love the interior. It's mint 👌
Awesome work as always mate. Think it's time for a engine upgrade? 20vt? Next project maybe a mk4 golf as there cheap atm or a r53 mini or a e46.. just a couple ideas I'm thinking about too 🤔 🙏🏻
@Project7YT looks awesome in person. I was there in my bagged silver mk4 golf r32. Row in front of yours. Great content by the way literally came across your channel today 👍
@@Project7YT cheers, looks like he's improved since I last saw a set by adding a rubber boot and now has them listed online rather than having to ask about them!
Surprised you didnt put in a 16v antiroll bar and new drop looks...280mm brake upgrade are a definite need ...you dont want brakes lockin up and losin traction...those stock brakes are a disaster especially in the wet..hard to lock up g60's....defo needed Do you find the power down with the heavier 16's and bigger rotors...that rotational mass being greater eating up those horsepurs🐎🐎
Ah I see...you project looks great and I think that's your aim which is aesthetics and show car look...where as I was hinting toward performance....but if you go down the engine swap you may look into it as an option especially to cock up the rear wheel when cornering😂
Oh yes. I have the mk1 from south africa and You definitely encourage me to make my one a project build. Love the steering wheel and the lights infact I like everything you did Keep up the good work!!
Need to let us sort the rear calipers to match the front :-)
I'm down 🤙🏾
Quality work on show,car just gets better.I think all the mods you’ve done to the mk2 are all spot on great work all round.👌👍
Means alot dude thanks!

I agree, I've been battling this for a while because I want to branch out to other brand aswell, maybe stick vw for now
Having seen the car in person a few weekends ago I've now started watching your videos. All the best with your endeavours.
Ah that means alot dude where did you see it ? ♥️🙏🏾
Nice upgrade and looks great too. Well done on the company who did the rebuild on the calipers
Thanks dude

Wow are my video actually reaching out there!?
Can't you bring one in from the us?
@@Project7YT Been watching since Green MK3 Wagon Days... As for importing from US, cost of importing and lack of quality older vehicles are an issue, especially when you compare to what is available in the UK...
Wow fair play! Means alot dude.
I'll drive one from the uk and ship it over, could be a great series 😂
Cracking video Lewis, can just imagine the amount of time you must spend talking over clips/finding other clips and then editing it all together. Love this new style 👌🏼
Honestly? It takes days 😂 but the response has been great
Would love to see rear window louver and one day properly an engine swap🙈🙈
It's on the list to do I just need to win the lottery or get a sponsor 😅
Great video, I’m sure after proper alignment it will feel tonnes better, invest in a mic for in car recording, how is engine progress?
Mic is on the list, I don't use it much to be fair.
Engine is running like crap now so I'm unsure because I want to start a new project
Needs a nice engine on it'bs and a nice sound setup and would love to see it on the wheels you where building for it and I think next project would be a lovely caddy old school bagged and just styling lots of love from south Africa Johannesburg
Yeah engine swap is on the list. I would love a caddy but they're a bit more common in your country
Loving the vids Lew, Your Golf is so Nice make me miss my jetta
Thanks man, I miss my old one too 😂
Vwdub caddy bagged and slammed but please keep the mk2 its a dream car for south Africa Johannesburg

Good color choice using red, I used red on my mk3. I cleaned the pistons and slides since I had everything apart, used oem disks and ceramic pads and with no ABS, it works alright.
And also the brake fluid was brown😂
Goes well with the other bits of red 🤙🏾
Oh nice
Tailgate window louvers would look good
Hell yeah!

Definitely need to do rear disc conversion
It's already done 🤙🏾
Loving the project. Do you have pictures of the extensions you do to cover the gaps betwen the Corrado seats and the rest cards. I am doing the same and your is the first i Saw with the gaps covered. Love the interior. It's mint 👌

Noath precision
@@Project7YT cheers, looks like he's improved since I last saw a set by adding a rubber boot and now has them listed online rather than having to ask about them!
Fair enough, I saw these on ebay
Link for extended balljoint?
Search ball joint extenders on ebay

No sorry, try autodoc it'll be on there
Ebay. Noath precision

Whats offstock?

Doesn't have an anti roll bar installed to be fair. 😂
@MisterMister-rz1zi Won't sit as low with an ARB installed mate.
Yeah, useless on slammed cars to be fair
Ah I see...you project looks great and I think that's your aim which is aesthetics and show car look...where as I was hinting toward performance....but if you go down the engine swap you may look into it as an option especially to cock up the rear wheel when cornering😂
@@MisterMister-rz1zi yeah man
get urself a lav mic for recording audio whilst ur in the car
It's on the list, I don't do much filming in the car to be fair
@@Project7YT Yeh that's fair.
🤙🏾
Oh yes. I have the mk1 from south africa and You definitely encourage me to make my one a project build. Love the steering wheel and the lights infact I like everything you did
Keep up the good work!!
Had alot of South Africans recently on my channel so shout out to you all 🙏🏾.
Thanks dude! All the best on your build
