my new dsm project in the works

[twalters09]

so about 2 months ago i stumbled apon my pride and joy, the vehicle ive wanted for 4 years, 1gb talon tsi, i paid 800 bucks for it the body has 103,xxx original miles on it and i have the paper work that the motor was rebuilt 4,687 miles ago, i was very happy, i bought from a kid that was not very mechanically inclined and couldnt figure out why it wouldnt start, i quickly found out he replaced the feul pump without rewiring it, i fixed that and sure enough she ran within 3 days of owning it , now i have gone over all the maintaince items and just got new belts, all new fluids, did a tranny flush and rad flush, also it rolled right through inspection. Now i have been having some fun with it, many parts on and on the way, i have been trying to keep track of my progress with pictures since day one and i will post as many as i can in my gallery this week sometime, i just and happy i stumbled apon my baby and have her working perfectly, shes making good power for me already, i love my dsm haha, i will keep everyone updated with my work in progress, exhaust and paint are next, im painting her myself, looking forward to that, talk to you guys later

will be getting more pics up this weekend probably, but i have a new problem, ever since i put the new front mount on my fans no longer will run, im not exactly sure what to do, my buddy wanted to drive it the other day and i let him, went with him obviously but something blew in the cooling system, i havnt been able to dive into it yet to find out but i believe it may have been the rad cus i already put a new lower rad pipe on and its still leaking, i was thinking about just wiring my fans up to a switch and mount it in the car so i can just flip power to them whenever, has anyone else had this problem and is there an easier solution, im just not sure whatelse to do so when in doubt hardwire the bitches , thanks in advance guys....
