Don't worry, we are speaking english too! Where did you come from?

PS : The cs-beetle link is broken...

[TSAF]

I am from Athens GREECE. Yes unfortunately the link is not operational at the moment. Its a shame that I cannot read your posts. I only see the photos of your lovely trips with your beautiful cars.

[Benoit]

I have a cousin who live in athens...

Give us more pics

[TSAF]

A cousin in Athens? Is he into beetles as well?

Welcome to the .org forum,

Top quality parts gathered into a top GL 1302SB

Have you lowered the front axle ? I wonder if you face bump steer issue with your front setup ( Kw coilover / 1303 suspension arm / anti-roll bar / 1303 disc spindle ?)

Cheers,

Obi

Thanks a lot for the welcome, I wouldn't know. The car is not totally finished. Hopefully within 2013 (big crisis over here)

-Bodywork has finished – everything painted & fitted on the car.
-Interior has finished with all gauges in place. Red leather on the dashboard, black headlining fitted, red carpeting is all in place (Front, rear seats & side cards have not been finished but I have bought the leather to re-upholster them)
-Suspension has finished and has been fitted on the car needs to be tuned though
-Brakes have finished including handbrake (hydraulic) and have been fitted on the car
-Alloys & tires ready on the car
-901 dogleg gearbox has been rebuilt with a Quaife LSD and has been fitted on the car, gearstick ready & fitted
-Engine short block, heads, etc have been assembled but not fitted on the car yet (Engine is currently sitting on the bench). We have not fitted the throttle bodies & the ECU. The idea was to originally run the engine for the first 5000km on carbs and then place the ecu with the throttle bodies in order to program them on the dyno. New wiring loom needs to be done. 911 fan has not been fitted, Dry Sump has not been fitted; oil radiator has not been fitted, Oil lines have not been fitted, Oil breather box has not been fitted, Exhaust system has not been fitted.

beautiful beetle

[TSAF]

I have tried my best for my 1303.

[Superflo]

Do you have the feature to run in closed loop lambda contol with your ecu? I use this with my DTA S60 to get a quick base map.

The car is nice and the powerplant looks promising!
