that's about the extent of it

DieselGeek Sigma 6 short shifter, I need to make some adjustments but they're not kidding about short. Much shorter throw, much more willing to slide. At the moment it's driveable but still 'chunky'/notchier than I'd like, so I'm gonna see if my alignment needs some work or not. But either way, ticking another thing off the list.

Got another part to the GTI’s stereo build… tw3 super shallow 10” woofer - first JL product and I can say the build quality and looks def. Land on the hype - lol.

Going to be going in the “front sub” position in a fiberglass sealed box, it will sit a lil deep back too once the foam and carpet are removed. Will be for that chest hitting 50-90/100 hz frequency

Rear setup is in the mail too… got a good bit more output planned for back there

It's not here yet, but I did finally cave and order a quickjack. They're having a labor day sale with $350 off. For that price, I had to do it.

I've been putting off a clutch replacement since the spring. I've been unable to drive with any stank on it for like a year. Clutch will slip like crazy, even on my base tune (is38) if I try to do any even slightly hard acceleration.

Part of the reason I've put it off is that putting the car up on stands all around is such a hassle and only gives 17" of height on the stands I have. Not fun under there.

QJ gives 21 to 24" of room apparently. That will make life less annoying.

Also, hey El bigote. How you been. You ever get around to doing the clutch start defeat mod?

Haha, not at all! I start the GTI about once to twice a months so it’s not really crossed my mind

Hard lines for air and custom floor showing it all off next on the list once the install is complete?

 

[Acadia18]

That looks like a cosmetics case of someone who goes door to door selling Mary Kay

 

[Cuzoe]

What's the floor going to be, some type of light wood?
