So I bought a daily driver about 2 months back. Ubber clean MK3 1998 Jetta White Black Leather Interior 80k on it with under 15k on the motor ENGINE: Schrick FI cams Three angle valve grind on the head BVH Schrick springs/valves all head work New guides and retainers etc New chains and guides about 10k ago Mkiv HG (9.5:1 CR) New TB (500miles on it) New starter SAI delete with 44DD plug (not installed but coming with) ISV delete (Coolant no longer pumped into TB lol) New coolant bottle/new hoses/new t-stat and t-stat housing Battery moved to trunk New battery 6-10-08 Polished manifold Bkr5e plugs/new wires TRANS/DRIVELINE: O2a with peloquin LSD full rebuild 10k ago Hardened SPEC shift fork ACT stage 2 full face clutch Kevlar/organic Unorthodox 6lb fly wheel (new rear main while I was in there) B&M short shifter with diesel geek SS reduction kit (new cables too) Redline trans fluid (shock proof) Stock cv’s sub 500 miles on them INTERIOR: Black leather front/rear seats Black Dash R32 shift knob Sparco grip pedals Black/tan (Guinness theme) interior conversion Alpine deck/bose speakers Battery in trunk EXTERIOR: Rado spoiler FK three bar badgeless Blacked fogs/turns/reflectors WHEELS/TIRES/BRAKES: Buggattis 15x6.5 IIRC 205/55/15 Goodyears on it good tread left. Zimmerman 11.3 drilled w/ mintex pads Zimmerman drilled rears w/ mintex pads SS lines Uber blue fluid 8mm H&R rear spacers So this time next year this car will be retired from DD duty, so I know what will happen then. But the rally mode look of the jetta is killing me. So my question is, who are good vendors to purchase: A) Good priced lowering springs B) I need some really dished 15" rims for the eurotrash look C) I need an SAI pump for emissions but I can't seem to find a price that doesn't ass rape me. Now I know this is far from an SRT, but we all come from somewhere in the automotive world, so I am hoping for input without going to big stupid VW boards.
