Mk2 golf build

Hi guys this will be my first post I have been building a mk2 golf rally car for about 5 years now and I’m finally coming to a end there’s been plenty of set backs and learning curves along the way but I’m pretty pleased with the final outcome it’s running KW fully adjustable 2 way suspension with a Kalmar dog box and sqs sequential selector also with a added load cell for programmable flatshift it’s on emerald k6+ management with custom full front too back wiring and centre control console Also with a talon one touch control module too the engine was a 230bhp NA 16v abf (which decided too drop a valve) so a new engine is currently being built but it uses a fully custom manifold with desired lengths and a AP power throttle body setup all fully forged the drive shafts are billet uprated shafts with the larger S3 outer joints the car has been extensively lightened In every possible way from fabricating new boot floors too bulkheads and everything in between it’s a seriously light car the seats are fully carbon corbeau seats we have made a fully custom steering column with a electronic power steering setup and a quafe quick rack kit the brakes consist of a tarox 6 pot setup floor mounted pedal box and full aeroquip lines throughout we have a fuel cell fitted inside the car with full progold fuel lines throughout there is probably so much I have forgotten but I thought I’d throw my build on here for some like minded people too have a look oh yea and it’s very orange

You are right no images. There is a guide on here on how to upload. I can't do it either. I am sure someone will point you in the right direction.

Wow! That's a seriously clean track car!
Seriously purposeful too, excellent work

I use Flickr too, if you want to embed the photos in your posts, you can click into the individual photos and there are three icons on the bottom right, the middle (arrow) will give you options to copy the code you need to paste here.

Yeah, that little arrow is a 'share' button, it'll take you to a window.
If you click the BBCode, you can select the size you want and clicking on code will automatically copy it.
Then just paste it here.
