    finally bought a new b5 pics inside

    picked up this 97 b5 for 4800 with a bad rear hub which i replaced with the rear hub off my 99.5. got it with only 86*** miles which is the only reason i spent that much on a b5, and then i get home and start looking at things closer and find this almost half gone timing belt. I ordered the ecs ultimate timing belt kit already along with both trans mounts. its just irritating not to be able to drive a car after you just bought it but it sure does look good in the driveway

    RIP 99.5 1.8t quattro, test pipe, full 2.5 exhaust, 17" rs4 reps, forge splitter DV, drilled and slotted rotors, redstuff pads, and finally running GIAC
    NOW- 97 b5 a4 1.8t quattro, 17" rs reps, and forge splitter, test pipe and 2.5in straightpipe with no muffler and now with clear corners, clear smoked side marker lights, and facelift tail lights.

    the gf- your breaking up with me over a car??
    me- yes i like it more

    What is it that we are looking at? What I think I see is a timing belt that is missing about half it's width.
