Has bfi poly .5 motor mounts stock VR trans mount
Replaced rear beam bushings w/poly inserts
Rear wheel bearings
Stainless brake hoses at all corners
Has weitec coils
Power steering delete
drivers edition rear 60/40
At the moment it has a check engine for glowplugs ive replaced the harness, the glow plugs, checked all the fuses, i'm about the do the relay mod. It is registered as a diesel and inspected has ****ty rattle can paint job...
The shell has some rust underneath, it was previously repaired in a half assed manor...but over all not to bad...not a show worthy car but a good daily that returns 38-42 mpg in mixed driving.

A/C works great, also did heater core at the time of the swap. I have put just over 3500 miles on the car since 6/27. I have a b4 passat fuel tank I am going to attempt to install this weekend, not sure it will fit but figured the 18 gal tank would be nice.

Because I had some negative feed back on another forum I want to elaborate on the rust situation. The golf had like three holes smaller then my fist, a po patched them, I said it was a half assed job because poopy welds...drivers rocker and pinch weld are dented, typical dum asses with jacks, surface rust on pinch weld, surface rust on fender and quarter wells where they were rolled and not sealed.
