Still looking for info on that strut brace VW1303

Hi, something wrong with your link.

[vw1303]

The front strut brace is made by me I was inspired by the heigo one.

Made an IAC block off plate. Makes tuning the idle alot easier......

Had to make an extension for my throttle cable as it was rubbing the silicone coupler off the turbo. Also modifed my throttle pedal so I can get full throttle

New QA1 double adjuster came in.

Found a model I got in Japan a few years ago digging through my old garage on my dads farm.

Man these little details to finish the car up seem to take forever!!! Im very close to street tuning it though. Hopefully in the new year

I totally agree with this. It's absolutely amazing what people can do/build. I'm in total awe - this build is bad a$$..

So I think it is due time for an update.

Drove the car to work. Alongside my friends RB26 powered 240z

Trailered the car out to a drift event in aggassiz on a tight 1/4 mile oval.
Not really the best track to "test out" the car. This happened.


Great bunch of guys helped me get off the track and back onto the trailer.

Moved againBeen busy in the shed rebuilding.
Finally got it up and running yesterday.


Front end is now fully tubed. Fuel cell added. Changed my front suspension to an a-arm style. It sure is fun to drive around like this. Wife is pregnant so this will be put on hold for a little while. Hopefully will be getting a bigger shop soon so I can fit the body overtop. I purchased a 1 piece fiberglass front end from MarkVFiberglass to replace the damaged section from the crash. I was pretty defeated after "incident" at the track. However I didn't give up just yet. I will add some more details later of what I did with the front end.

Nuts!!! Well when you play like that it was bound to happen, hopefully you got a little feel for it before your shunt. That church reminds me of one on 16th ave? Been years since I've driven in BC but your pictures often remind me of places I've been by.
