Mystery Garage

Mystery Garage

Your #1 Destination for real continuous MK1 VW/Volkswagen content on KZread!

Mk1 VW's are my passion and these cars are getting harder and harder to find. In June of 2020, I decided to grab a camera and start documenting all the fun I have with these cars; as I build and play in my garage. No fancy stuff here, just an average joe with general hand tools encouraging EVERYONE to get out in the garage yourself and do this too! Not only do I love all things Volkswagen (especially Mk1 VW's, Golf Rabbit Jetta Caddy Cabriolet Scirocco ) but I built this channel not as a step by step, or how-to channel but a channel aimed at Volkswagen ENTERTAINMENT in general. My hopes are to help support, encourage, and inspire, your builds at home in your garages!

As I continue to grow this channel, PLEASE HELP SPREAD THE WORD AND HELP SUPPORT ME BY SUBSCRIBING TODAY!

Don't forget to "TAP" that "BELL" for all new video notifications!

THANKS FOR WATCHING!!

    What header did you replace? I’m working on a ABA swap into my mk1 GTi and trying to find headers to use on the cheap. I’m told the OBX Aba headers work fine but I’m not sure. The TT headers are awesome but that 500 bucks is the difference between this motor going in next week or next month. Thanks in advance

    Hi , I've got this job to do on my mk2 gti pb 8v . I've got the 2.0 agg engine out of a 1999 mk3 golf but I've heard it's going to be 15 to 20mm taller ,( tall block) best easiest engine to swap as there's no wiring to change or different engine mounts , I'm no mechanic but tinker with cars all of the time . I plan to attempt this in the next few months

    I think you're confusing hot rodding with rat rodding. Hot rodding is doing what it takes to squeeze everything out of what you got. Rat rodding is doing it cheaply usually with mix and matching parts to make it faster

    Great Video, I have a mk4, it's got the later model apk, looks like the obd1 aba throttle body does bolt straight into the mk4 manifold. Did you have to make any brakets or just a straight fitment? Cheers

    one of the best teachers I had always said "if it has threads, bolt or screw head..its supposed to be played with" in regards too the safety wire on the fuel delivery or advance on diesel injection pumps. i wasn't into Vw's at the time but he said he had a lot of IDI tuning tips, i missed out on that but i always appreciate this kind of video, im on my second ABA, a late 98 GL that is getting a cam after learning all this. all praise TTuing, i just installed their short shift kit 👌

    I've always wonder why people like to drop the engine and not extract from the top? if an engine hoist isn't available sure but everyone always drops it and I found out going from the top is easier to extract and put back in... idk
