It's tasteful cars like this that made me rethink my position on mk3 jettas. Very, very nice 
you know, im with you on this one. i usually dont care much for mk3 anything..
but this is one SHARP LOOKING RIDE... i LOVE those wheels. i dont believe ive ever seen another set as long as ive been alive..
keep up the good work!
Thank you very much for the kind words.
I've been taking a small passion towards paint correction and paint detail. Working on my car was the main priority. However I have been detailing the exterior of a few other cars in my circle as well.
the one that really stands out is this Japanese imported mk2 GTI 16v turbo,
And another couple of my car for good measure.
4 DOOR GTI!!! THEY DO EXIST!!!
i wanna make my 86 that clean some day..
i wonder if its a REAL 4dr GTI, or if its a Golf with GTI everything on it, like my 4dr GTI?

it's a legit 4 door GTI, 16v engine. Power front windows and the badging and paperwork to prove it was.
imported into canada roughly 4 years ago, and has undergone huge transformation since. Now it's sporting a turbo with Digi1 engine management and roughly 150 hp to the wheels. a real BLAST to drive.

I didn't know about the G2G details of this forum, it really slipped my mind.
There is a show in August up here in Vancouver, Great Canadian VW. I'll post more details about that in the G2G
NOW and as well there is Waterworks on the bay, in San Fran in the beginning of september, which i'm going to and finally Pacific Waterlands in Oregon end of september
Installed Canadian spec Corrado power recaro's into the diesel over the weekend.
Power tilt, power recline and heated.
However at this point in time, none of the power options work yet

The plan is for me to bring the car down for sure to pac waterlands. Don't know if i'll be in a position to show and be judged, but i will pay the entry to show the car and to have it in with my other friends at the event.
I'm not really a show person, however i love being at the shows!
well,
this could be the end of my diesel.
got rear ended July 28 , but some kid that felt that being 3 feet behind me tailing me was in his best interest.

Maybe he was just looking over your nice car and wanted a bit better look.

i wish that were the case.
I had a chance to gather with a friend, that is a production manager at a body shop. Reputable shop in the Greater Vancouver area, and he said to me......the insurance company is going to total loss the vehicle.
Which means to me, i might have to go find another diesel pretty quick. I don't want to go through another gas car, only to try and sell it to get a diesel when i find one.
there is a 1997 mk3 TDI for sale, which i'm tempted on buying pretty quick. Then i'll swap over as much as I can from this car over and give it up. This way i can attain full value on my insurance buy back and still come up on top for the newer car.
It sucks, but with frame damage, it's not worth trying to repair
Crap po lu pa. Frame damage. I lost a truck to that but otherwise it was minor cosmetic damage.
My son did the swap of great parts from his Miata back to stock so he could retain them. Good he listened to me about saving shocks and such just in case those adjustables don't work so good. Had all kinds of advance stuff for turbo on it and removed it all, insurance was only looking to get a stock vehicle back as that is what they were paying him for it.
