The Mk 2 jett carries about 25-30# less LF weight, at the same total. And the Cg is lower, farther to the rear. Pick up the rear hatch and you'll see why.
They can keep the rear...

If the guy was serious, he would call with a schedule, I could give a solid price.
MM 2300$ would work OK and match price.

4 track days does add up. Plus transport. It does cost some cash. Thanks, Mike ogren
$ 2500 complete will do it.

A computer has some kind of logic module, and recieves input from at least one sensor. IMHO. From what i read, you may modify the control pressure feed , and how it is fed, from the computer. ...

I prepped two MR2s, both legal. and slow for ITA, about right for ITB.
I raced and raceds against the MR2. The brakes are weak and they are overweight. The engines are weak on power, if they are...

You can reduce the toe out , both front and rear with the locked, and maybe run less front camber. Our tire wear is better with the welded and less camber is required.
Pray for rain.!! MM

The best thing about rentals, is that the car is not at your shop onMon am , needing a fresh set of rings or clutch. It is a fixed cost way of racing. And a very good way to attend a school, for...

I have two spaces in Brooksville FL. MM

Short shift, easy on the brakes, easy on the tires.Easy on the clutch. run about 90% of fast.
Dont push the pass on the track, pass in the pits. Drive your pace.
If you are faster...

After driving WGI about 5or 10k miles, It is hard to adjust to a new line or entry speed.
I spent a couple of days there last week
The new , low curbing in T1 has added about 7-9mph to the...

Hot but controlled cyl temps make more power . The cyl pressure is higher.
I use the big rad tho as I dont like to be close on cooling. It can ruin your weekend and engine. I also live in FL. ...

RE # 37, Chris. I was proposing a pro style of class management . The Mk 1 , 2 and 3 Vw would just get balanced so the racing was very close. This would reduce cost in the long run , because the...

As soon as money or perceived fame is involved, the class turns into "star wars" I have seen the ministock class run for cash and the guys went nuts. The ice racers wanted better tires and ruined...

AVX trans is sold as a unit. Sorry. VW does not show that gear at my dealer. Long motors in CA. may have a gear set. Is this for a hill climb or Production car?
Good luck. MM

Hi all. I am pretty close to having all of the parts for my Sons race car.

Did the timing stay the same with the knock sensors unpluuged?? It should go to a low advance sweep.
The ttotal lead should be a little over 32*, unloaded(out of gear) with a timing light on...

Unplug the knock sensors and try it.
FWIW, I have had very few bad computers in over 25yrs of VW. 98 out of 100 problems are fuel delivery or temp sensors. The pressure reg is the most...

I built a rental 16 V ITA car about 8 yrs ago. The renter, bought it from me, and then traded the engine from a wrecked race car, with a "Pro" built 8V and a quaife trans. I just bought it back...

Unplug the knockers to To set the timing at a steady #. It may start hard . MM
I would try it without the vac line and the dist turned back some.

You may want to check the actual timing at 4000 and above. Sometimes the knock sensor might not work and the timing goes way too far. The symptoms are the same as you state.
Check the knock...
