Been a while... Few new pics of the VWRX
Been too long.
Not much to report, other than the car will be coming up for sale sometime I'm the not to distant future.
As you can see, engine has been re-detailed. Gone is the red.
Another set of ported heads with upsized cams fitted.
Wheels and brakes were also upgraded to a custom setup utilizing Porsche 4spot brembos, 944 rear backing plates, custom chromoly drive flanges, work
emotion forged 17" wheels (special order gloss black) and falken rt615 tyres all round (255s on the rear).
Will hopefully get it to a couple of events over here in Perth before parting ways...

Hi Reub
Sorry to hear that your selling it, it was a great influence when I was building my car. Hopefully whoever buys it will lavish the same care of the
car as you have.

That bug has been such an inspiration to so many people including myself.
I remember looking over it at Valla when it was still matte black in the late 90s thinking what an awesome conversion how cool would a subi bug be.
