I dunno how you manage to drive that thing daily with your header so low and not destroy it or the sump.
Mines 2.5-3" higher than yours and I've already wrecked 2 mufflers in only 10,000kms and drag my sump regularly, and its a 3.5" shorter one

👍 Love the vid dude. An congrats on your 6 year achievement.
Although not as fast as a converted beetle (or as cool many would argue - including my) I'd still rather my wrx as a daily driver over my VWRX or aircooled efi beetle 😀

I tried to get hold of a stock header to build mine from, you'd think there'd be hundreds sitting in sheds from all these boy racers that upgrade but no luck.
ugh the rack.... 2 1/2years later its still sitting there waiting to go in.
I just need to borrow a nutsert gun to install the mounting nutserts and relocate my rad return line cos I managed to position it right where the uni shaft for a rack goes.

Jak, just do the Albins, nice to know that they are there 😊
Whats a LSD worth these days and best place to source?
I agree in raising height slightly, have the same issue and think as cool as it looks that 20mm will help with handling.

How many sets of lights does it take a $229k Carrera S to learn? 😂 UPDATE: Cayman S, M3, B4 now added to the list.

Plus the 2 million that was probably on it before it went into your car 😂
or was it a rebuild?
The old out of sight out of mind thing.
Mr B would probably hang me from the clothes line by my nads if he knew I've never even checked the oil level in mine since it was rebuilt and put in 9 years ago 😊
when it starts making noises I'll think about it 😂

hi Jak,
have always enjoyed reading your articles in VWMA. can you tell me what clutch you run in your car pls. I have a box Boris / Henry built for me and I think I have a clutch somewhere for it but not sure exactly what.

wow. thats a really nice car.
what sort of mileage does it give you?
is the gearbox in it a type 1 box with the stronger 3rd and 4th gears? -> what sort of rpm are you pulling at highway speeds?
