Ohh, basically here is the run down of what I have decided to do:
Interior: New dash (standard gauges+tach, stock style except for a tach gauge sitting by the pillar) New seats/panels (looking at one of the SCAT elite velour) Harnesses Basic sound system, hidden well though. Seriously re-do the wiring Roll cage Exterior: Painted bumpers Re-restore the car (since the previous owner did an OK one, but its a bit botch) Porsche wheels (don't know which ones to roll with- or how to mount them since I have the massive 5 bolt pattern) Perhaps wider fenders Engine: SCAT 2332 kit Dual 44 IDF's (or EFI) Quiet dual glass pack exhaust (more immediately is the 12v, alternator and the fuel pump) Suspension: Bilstein shocks Sway bars if they make them for my car Lower it about an inch Transaxle rebuild (don't know what gearing) Porsche 914 regular disks in front, if I cannot source these a basic disk kit all around. *I am sure I am leaving crap out, this is just tentative I would like to paint the beetle white, and use golden colored wheels, with a grey interior. I don't want the thing to look super flashy, just clean and presentable. The engine I mentioned puts down about 140hp, which is enough for me I reckon, considering that my stock WRX puts down 180 and I have a blast with that thing. After some serious (some serious pre-fall asleep thought) I realized that the best choice for auto-X would be a Manx, since they are way lighter and I could go more wild on it since I wont need it for a daily while I am in college. One day I might throw a turbo system on, just for the boosty goodness, along with lower compression heads and stuff. How's it sound so far? |
