Hi guys,
my name is Thomas 21 years young. Im from holland and have been browsing this forum/site for some time now. and at the same time looking for a car that fits my needs.
i went on a road trip with my brother for a bmw e30 with a M50b25 engine in it. but it had no future. then on the way home, my brother was browsing some forum's and found a nice Scirocco mk2 on a dutch VW forum.
called him and went over there. this is what we found
and we bought it. on a side note, it has some work.
the first thing what had to be done, where the connecting rod bearings. those made a really horrid noise :P
a shot from the engine bay
now a more serious matter, the rims. the standard steel mk 2 golf rims with the 155/80/13 tires on it would'nt do the trick. but it has been lowered with coilovers though.
so my brother has some MSW rims laying arround. so i can use those.
it has 195/50/15 tires on them. these wouldnt fit becous of the plastic spoilers that go arround the scirocco. so we found a nice set of 185/45's to fit the rims
so this is how it sits now, but the hubcaps have been lackered now so they fit the rims better collor wise.
i think my 5.5cm groundclearance should do the trick for the hollidays. becous im driving it to hungary, and dont know what kind of roads they have there:P
hope its a bit stance worthy, i will be lowering it further and buying more oil sumps after the hollidays haha.
greets the netherlands, Thomas out!!
