Default New project, mk2

i just picked up a 92 gti for 200 bucks! no interior "seat, door panels, carpet, hatch panels, and no motor or trans

body is CLEAN as hell, no dings or nothin

i've decided to make this my winter project for drag racing next summer.

the plan is...

motor-mk3 obd2 vr6 swap, cam,full head port with 3 stag valve grind and valvesprings, obx header w/ 2.5inch pipe into borla, bbm stage 3 supercharger kit, water-meth injection, obviously wireing harness w/ chip, solid motor mounts

trans-stock mk3 5 speed "rebuilt",lsd, lightweight flywheel, stage 2 clutch, poly mounts

suspension-raceland coilovers, full poly bushings, upper and lower strut bars front and rear, 25mm front swaybar, 28mm rear swaybar

brakes- brembo big brake front disk conversion, corrado rear disc conversion, blue racing fluid

interior-custom gauge setup in mk2 dash, full rollcage, tenzo R racing seats, 5 point harness's

exterior-stock paint, big bumpers "red stripe if i can find them", jetta hood, guad lights w/ badgeless,cross hair headlights, all smoked lenses, 15x9 black mod wheels with stretched street slicks

will post picks of the shell once its cleaned up

im sure i missed a few things in the plans....questions/comments are appreciated and no this will NOT be on the street, i dont wanna endanger myself or other drivers
