I think I'm ready to get out of the slow lane so I was wondering if anyone had a td they would like to sell me. Would prefer something in the PNW, but willing to have it shipped if none can be found local. Also looking for a reverse switch(the one thats bolted into the trans with two bolts). I hope to hear from somebody soon.

Good luck finding the TD motor. You're most likely to find one from a Quantum. The TD Rabbits, Golfs, and Jettas are very rare in this part of the country.

BTW - that reverse switch always breaks so you need to buy a new one if you really want reverse lights.

Its too bad we don't have very many td's in the USA. I ended up filching the reverse switch from a helios jetta in a U-pull it today so no need for that anymore. I'm fixing up my jetta so I'm also interested in better than stock suspension parts. Hopefully someone will have good news for me in the future. Thanks in advance.

I'm using a Weitec GT kit with a 60/40 drop and I can't complain. They're really reasonably priced too. Mine came from http://www.euronationmotorsport.com/
