just wanted to introduce myself since i think i'll visit this section forum the most ... i just purchased this 1990 hatchback w/ 70k miles for pretty cheap, ive always wanted one but just never got one until now. i just raced in my first autox with this car this past weekend. it was my first autox in a pretty lightweight FR car so it was interesting to say the least ( im used to FF understeering monsters). i was just running stance coils (8/6k springs) and strut bars and it was awesome... but anyways enough of me talking about the car, here are some pics. lemme know what ya think. thanks, brian my other car (daily driver)

Welcome to nico, I'm glad you enjoy the car, we all do.

This board has a wealth of knowledge available and the search function is an excellent tool.

BTW, where did you get those coils from, I've yet to see coils with that high of spring rate without being coilovers.

I graduated from Timberline High and took three years in automotive technology in Bevans class in Boise, Id in 2005 and am currently going to college in Moscow. BTW the rims on the VW are SICK! Wondering if I knew you it would be wierd to see a familiar face here. And nice hatch.

Yea I had beven for my instuctor for three years and a couple times we had to get something out of his yukon and when we opened the door we would be ankle deep in beer cans
