Spring/summer cleaning. Last year the car got driven around 2100 mi. If that. Got the car out of storage, drove it around a bit, cleaned it half heartedly. I'm bored of it, to be honest. Interior is stripped as much as I want to, have no motivation to finish pulling those panels for a few lbs that I don't really care about. Open projects - battery relocate/wiring harnesses, seat rails/seat delete clean up, wiring harness clean up for the sub (which I might pull but it's the last nice thing in the car so I do like having speakers. And AC). There’s a remote control I wired for and never installed on the center column after fabricating the actual harness. Got lazy at the last step... 2 years ago. Found it in my boxes the other day so it’s sitting on the counter now. And! There's always engine things that could be done. During the oil change and filters and all that spring storage bullshit I noticed that my cam bridge screen is clogged and I'll have to address that at some point. So that means while we're in there - changing up the timing chains, guides, water pump, thermostat etc. since its at 94,000 ish. Premature, but might as well?
Or just pull the entire motor, sell it, and find something more interesting to put into the shell. There are several nearly plug and play options that I’ve eyed, having considered dropping them into the mk5 before getting rid of that as a daily. That would have been too savage as a daily - some sort of supercharged 3.6 Mk5 or a late Audi motor as a daily car. Instead, I put in some nice Fox shocks, wheels/tires, tinted, PPFed and ceramic coated the T4R daily. Thinking about buying some dynamat, new focal speakers and putting a nice system in that thing since I'm in it so often. It's a good daily.
