don't ask me.  I left my car sitting at my parents.  it ran, it leaked a little bit of oil.  it was full of coolant.

 

today, the engine is fucked, it took 5 litres of oil and 2l of coolant and I'm going out to drink myself stupid now.

1989 Jetta Trophy.

 

Full Recaros.

New clutch (about 20k on it)

Trohpy BBS Rims (no rubber)

13" Winter Rubber (no rims)

Full stereo install

New ball joints/tie rod ends/steering boots (as in, never driven on)

Tinted windows

Relatively solid exaust with cat (leaks at the block, thats it, probably needs a seal)

Racing DP

Schrick 268/272 cams (I can't remember right now)

Paint is in great shape (one rust spot at the bottom of one door)

Window seals replaced on 3 of the doors recently

New Gel battery (about 2 months old)

 

Downside - the engine is fucked.  The doctor just called and declared the engine to be DOA.  Seized right up. 

 

If someone wants it, make me an offer.

 

Otherwise, if someone knows where I can pickup a 2l16v (block at the very least), let me know.

 

Anyone know what putting a TDi in there would cost?  about the same as installing a 2l16v?
