Well I rescued my RS some 4 years back, and work on it, mechanically more than anything, and had an accident on the freeway, that put be back to step one.
After first rescue
After Accident
after some work today i have it a little bit better, but people on my apartment complex keep denting my ends, !@$$!. oh well. but after the abuse that it has undergone in the past year(weekly commute of 500mi) my attention has to go to back to the engine. I'm looking to 'upgrade' my pulleys, i need to anyhow,does anyone know where a can get a good kit for it?
I'll post some pics of how it looks currently, after i wash it, some time this week.

If you do, don't replicate the UR or AFX, replicate the customcargrills.com easy-on/easy-off pulley. So much better...

Well this is how it currently looks, im still a couple thousand dlls from where i want to be, i do most of the work myself, i just havent had time, or much money for that matter.
sorry about the glare i didn't notice it before the posting. You can notice the 'love bumps' my dear neighbors have left in the front and back bumper.
I'm really looking fwd,to sharing any progress, and learning from everyone's experience here.
I'll take some pics of the engine bay, i got to take care of power steering, dirty cooling system, loose water reservoir, pulley, and it needs some serious cleaning.
Also i'll share some pics of the suspension work i'll be doing soon, oh yeah, some underskirt pictures.want to do something serious, to withstand mountain road speeding conditions.
