1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

They're nearing the end of their lifespan anyway. I'll keep using 'em till they wear out.

 

Just seemed neat.


You gonna boost yours?

 

Nah, when I yank the engine out to do seals I'm putting in a new engine harness and going to a standalone computer and modern sensors so I can tune it better though. Doesn't need boost, has lots or torque thankfully, it's a big slow revving engine. I just want to clean up the fueling for more efficiency, old sensor styles like the 80s used aren't super accurate in all conditions so it stays extra rich for safety, that murders power and gas

 

Bad alignment

 

Thats rad, in Berkeley there is a custom vw bus shop. Allows cool as ones over there

 

Tech just backed out to take it for a test - was watching his reverse arc - no rub... (So far) see what he says when he brings it back.

 

Looks really nice!

 

I wish I had a 4door... where you get the studs for the fender flare holes ?

 

Thx, haven't forgotten all the assist you provided with my multiple messages when I was installing the OME kit.

 

Here you go. Had to trim a little on a couple of the plugs - added neoprene washer to keep it from sliding around.

If I re-do them, going to go this route. Just way more time investment. Looks cleaner though - flat vs rounded.

Now make it 4wd

 

Next item on the list. Youll finish that 4WD frame first.

 

ordered...been wanting to do this myself just didn't know what to fill the holes with, but I think those little black plugs will look good. I've had to trim my flares back front and rear and it just looks like crap from up close, so might as well just take them off.

 

You never gunna be 4wd then

 

Probably true at least not this one.

 

Though im finally gunna do something to the frame. Gunna let tyler weld plates in the rear. So he can get practice and finally do his bumper

 

I was looking through my pictures from the recent trip to the South, found this guy rolling through NOLA.

 

What was the other box for?

 

Did you ask him if you could take his pic?

 

Ones side plates, other is to box the rear. I got both because its cheap enough
