[@deciplesteve]

Patience + Further = perfection.

[@patiencemetalfab]

Absolutely! You throw Vescio's into the mix and this is going to be one incredible project ❤

[@police428]

I just stumbled upon your channel from a Gears and Gasoline Vid. And I am glad I popped in! as a classic VW Beetle owner myself, I am glad to see the revival of speed from these little cars! You have earned my time and a sub from me!

[@patiencemetalfab]

That's great to hear, G&G is a great channel. Good to have you on board and hopefully you enjoy what's to come. Thanks for the support!

YESSSS YESSSSS YESSSSS!!!!!! IM ALL INTO THIS BUILD!!! I Have a bug myself and ive been wanting to go down the same path you guys are going. Do you have any links for the suspension? I need to get my hands on that set up!

[@patiencemetalfab]

That's awesome to hear, LOVE the enthusiasm!! Hopefully we can make that path a little easier for you with some of our media. The suspension bits we've used so far have come from Cool Rydes Customs, check them out here: www.coolrydescustoms.com/crc-suspension.html

This one will definitely be an intense and special build! Do you see many Volkswagens in Japan?

That's great to hear! I'm hoping to see some when I'm in Japan for Tokyo Auto Salon @@watanabeisamu1461 👍 Will you be attending that event?

[@waltvan7792]

did you have any problems with the parking brake shoes not adjusting out enough inside the rear rotors?

[@patiencemetalfab]

It's not something we've run into just yet, but we're still decently far off from dialing in the brakes TBH.

[@waltvan7792]

@@patiencemetalfab thanks for the response I will give Kevin a call and see what he suggests

[@patiencemetalfab]

You got it and we'll give you a shout if we run into any brake shoe issues eventually!@@waltvan7792

Whats up with the mini truck at 5:58?

[@patiencemetalfab]

Good eye! That's one of our fabricator's 1J Isuzu drift truck. We'll likely be doing a build breakdown video on it in the spring ♥ instagram.com/p/CiVJAkOuIAC/

[@its_a_metal_thing]

How much weight do you think you added?

[@patiencemetalfab]

That's really tough to say since we didn't measure individual components. The car will obviously be heavier overall when all is said and done, but the power and handling characteristics will be WELL worth the extra lbs!

[@mattmanvw]

How much to buy that front set up?

[@patiencemetalfab]

That front end is from Cool Rydes Customs, look them up and find out!
