Von Religion Zu Kult.

Hallo, i try to explain my golf 3 story (sorry for bad english)

I present to you Religion or Hybrid01 (for vento front, cockpit TT inside)

This one is the my first GTI ABF engine in the last spec at its last worthersee tour 2005







And now the spec of Kult: my actually GTI 2E engine

This is kult before the full total remake (this is the last standing at march 2011)

In the march 2011 Hybrid02 (this is its name), was stopped for some private and familiar problem. I didn't have time and money to spent. Was parked in a open parking: 1 and 1/2 year of rain, snow, sun...hot sun.

On 6 june 2012 i decide to restart with a new born, finally i had a box to work harder on her. Here under the "come back" conditions

In may 2012 the mk3 virus restart at the max speed

I bought in 2 second on ebay.de a set of Artec S2....for me: Das Felge!



From 8 juny to 13 july i start with the bigger work for me never made: gift a hard refresh to my poor engine. I bought everything on ebay.de. And finally i changed the following parts with my self help and the help of a precious friends: Elsa and ****.

- full engine gasket and cylinder gasket head
- new full water hoses
- new water pump
- new thermostatic valve
- new pressure/temperature oil and water sensor
- full cleaning oil pump
- new timing and services belts
- new VR6 engine mounts
- new spark cable
- new tie rod, steering arm, and new bearing
- TT silent block
- powerrhor
- new front and rear disc and pads brake.

H2O (Hybrid02 shortened) say thanks.
