Procrastination: "parts you got in the mail years ago and still didn't do to to your GTI today"

[Subliminal]

Oh boy…
Mpi kit, fuel line kit, all the parts for the clutch bypass on start up hack, Dayton air motion tweeters, water pump kit, rear control arm air guard things, Tiguan subframe cover, PM4, ss fittings for the rear air tanks setup to get rid of the brass look, new front air bags/struts- and now all the exhaust parts and rear diffuser for the new quad exhaust

Don't forget the camaro

I did the rears recently, but this weekend I’ll be installing the front bilstein+h&r springs along with an HID bulb.

We need to combine this thread with member list by state, have some install parties.

I'm only good at losing 10mm sockets, but happy to bring drinks and food

Or maybe swap for parts we will actually install.

I bought the front license plate bracket from vw671 but have never put it on the car.

I’ve got a JB4, and BMS intake that have been collecting a nice layer of dust over the last year.
Had the BMS installed for 2 weeks. The sneezy intake noises got old pretty fast.
I’m pretty much convinced I’ll never install the JB4 but who knows.

Have had my Audison APSP stereo upgrade for a year. Sold the car I bought it for and need a most adapter to install it on my golf r. Still sitting. Had other things I wanted for the golf r first. Will likely install it in the fall.

 

[Salami]

Since last June I have had all the stuff to do a nice stereo system.

Zen V
Helix DSP Pro
Morel tweeters
Audiofrog mids
JL Audio midbass
JL Audio HD 600.4 x2 and 750.1
Stereo Integrity MKV sub
Probably won't have time until September to get started

Murdering your BFI motor mount by pairing it with the OEM trans mount code name sea-saw in there.

Wouldn't the opposite be true? Wouldn't more stress be placed on the trans side?

Your engine mount is attempting to hold things nice and still while your trans mount is flopping in the wind.

I would think you'd place more stress on the engine mount as it's trying to stop movement on both sides of the engine now.

That makes sense. It'll go in once I'm back from vacation. I'm not too stressed over that. Drove for less than 2k like that. Should I get the full mount or continue with the insert. What are the thoughts on that?

The problem with using that theory and then using the “insert” only version does the same thing… since the full engine side bfi mount has much less movements and zero voids vs the insert only being and piece of poly at the bottom of the mount, the front back and top are still rubber/air voids.

I can't believe some of what I am reading..hahahaha. If I buy something it goes in (me or shop) or I sell it.

 

[StorableComa]

Eh. Plans change, and then change again. In my case I stocked up on parts and then made some drastic changes. Hah
