Some here will know me on the rs2000-16v.com site, i have been restoring my mk5 rs for nearlly a year, i was getting some bits done to go for the MOT, and came across evidence that the dredid tin worm had been doing his best, rust - lots of rust, so grinder in hand, some new pannels, steel sheet and a mig, i set at it, here are some pics of the work so far,
















Thats the shell rust free (as much as possible) and now im preping for paint.
I have done most of the mechanical parts to go back on, a brieff spec is,
Lightend and balanced 2.3, 2k ported (lots) head, piper 285 cams with kent verniers, 45 jenvies, nissan injectors, megasquirt ecu,
RS2k box with quaife atb, 4.1cwp.helix clutch, GAZ coilovers, pollybushed rear, rosejointed front, Cosworth 2wd 4pots on front (so i can run 15's) etc etc.



Hope you like my project. I also have another mk5 2k which is standard trim, (also needs some work)
