Well I bought this car from a local DSMr about 3 years ago as a rolling chassis after he got fed up with it and decided to part it out. I have slowly been piecing it back together.

Pics before I bought it (before it was parted out and parked under a pine tree for over a year.)

I don't know why, but I really like that color...

Oh and lets not forget my 90 TSI awd. It is my baby with only 74k miles and stock except for tints, fuel pump, big brakes and EBC drilles/slotted rotors.

Both are very nice cars. Good job with both (maintenance on the stocker).

Is that Ram intake through the headlight illegal? or why do you use it for the track only?

Pretty easy answer. My version connects straight to the 3" intake pipe without a filter. For that reason I am only going to use it at the track so I dont suck anything up into the turbo by driving it around on the street.

4x4! Do you ever play in the dirt with it?
Kinda like a bad ass, gas RC car! BTW, anyone who is into awd Nitro cars know they break everytime you bring em out and run em hard, just like a DSM.
NICE! I like the stocker best, that is hardcore!

What was the ninja edit? I want to see what we missed!

How do you guys put the hole in the headlight without cracking the lense?

Spin the bit faster and enter the plastic slower.

Bumpin an old thread, ban me.

JP what's the deal man, you don't post on the local forums anymore. Did you give up on this project or what? Is it still a 4x4? I want an update and to see this thing moving under its own power, man!

Last I saw it was @ hooters 2 years ago.

LOL no banning for the bump. I havent touched her in >1year. Still have the suspension sitting in the box and a ton of goodies waiting to go on. Unfortunately with work and working on the new house so that I can move, I havent had a single moment to even think of either DSMs. Trust me I havent forgotten about her.....just not the highest on my list of priorities right now.

Well it would be on my highest priority list.
