	No problem.  I have had the car for about three years, and on a
college students time and budget, have managed to modify it to my liking.
I have turbo gas struts with spax springs.  I upgraded the front swaybar
to a quattro, and added the same bar to the rear with adjustable heim
joints.  I have rear disks from an 80, and reinforced the panhard rod to
have no flex.  I also made a bar to go behind the strut towers and tie
them together (underneath the plastic cover, to clear the battery)I also
have 15" type Cs with Nitto tires- 195-50. With over
200K on the motor, I recently rebuilt the head with a 3 angle valve job,
and ported and polished the head and intake manifold.  I had a cam ground
to 270 degrees.  I contmplated a 2.3 bottom end, but did not want to deal
with high compression for now.  I also fitted a 3 outlet manifold and
downpipe form a quattro, and have a 2 1/4 custom stainless exhaust with a
stainless borla.  Nothing too fancy, but enough to keep VW and hondas
humble.  With all the head work, it revs freely to the revlimiter in every
gear, especially the first three.  Id like to get into a turbo soon
though, that would be really fun!
