- If you are into Volkswagen's or highly modified cars well then this video is for you. Today I got to sit down with Alex Pappas to hear his story on his MK4 Volkswagen Jetta build. This car has a pretty amazing story and the amount of time and effort Alex has put into this build needs to be show cased to the world. while most people may just see a Jetta as a daily driver Alex took is "Daily Driver" and turned it into some very specials. From the beautiful shaved bay to the crazy back story on the Jetta, this is an episode I hope you all enjoy and a series you all would like to see more of. If you enjoy please Like, Share and Subscribe to the channel!
Alex is what I call a true enthusiast. He built his Jetta the way he envisioned it, with no expenses spared and the dedication of 8 consistent years of building the Jetta. With the help of his friends, family and his wife the car has been at many Volkswagen shows up and down the east cost of the United States and has won many awards.
I would love to hear what you all think about Alex's big turbo Jetta? What do you think of the shaved engine bay, the fender to lip fitment or the custom interior?

I hope you all enjoy this video! I'm trying something new and trying to highlight some cool enthusiast builds. Please like and share so we can get this video out there!
I just got my dad's jetta that pass away 10 years ago .. My grandmother kept it for me... I just can't wait to work on it that's why am watching
That is so awesome to read! Good luck on your build! These engines can handle tons of boost.
I inherited my mk4 GLI VR6 from my step-grandpa after he killed himself! I was suicidal at the time and my 3-series was in need of a timing chain at the time as regular maintenance before I tuned it & my mk4 saved my life, physically & mentally. Gave me a reliable & amazingly fun platform to drive until I finished my f30 3-series. Now I enjoy them both & VR6 is getting turbo next month! 🙂 my f30 is @ 420whp & 450+ wtq still on her stock twin scroll
bro I gotta know how it's going
I love this! Interviews are awesome, love hearing stories on how things came to be. Especially this build! Alex is definitely heard before seen whether it's his voice or his car ♠️♠️
🤣😂🤣 soo true bro! You can hear him from a mile away with the car or his voice
I never could have guessed he was from Jersey haha. Absolutely love it!
WHAT A WONDERFUL CAR 🚘, CONGRATULATIONS 🎊🎉🍾🎈, THANKS FOR YOUR VIDEO ❤🙏
Climatic and woodgrain wasn't in the very early cars I also worked at vw. Clean ass mk4 tho I hope my mk4 tdi get here one day!
Awesome story, thank you for sharing. Clean example. I just picked up a very clean example. Ultra low mileage. Subscribed
That’s awesome to hear! Thank you for the comment! I’m hoping to do more videos soon
Those rear beam bushings are a nightmare, I did em a few years back on my '05 gli. The left side took about 45 minutes, the right side...6 hours😂
Yep sounds about right lol I help a different friend do it on his GTI and it took forever to get the been back in
Great content man. Gotta love anything with a VR6!
Couldn’t agree more man! I’m a big VR6 guy! This car really got me thinking about my own build lol
wow man, what a great car you built. i love the rims and tires and how you like to keep the original paint. wicked bay. the power must be out of this world. see you around
I'm from Poland but great interview. Well done
Thank you for checking out the video! Let me know if you think anything should be changed formate wise for the next video!
Loved the video man love the car...I'm doing dame thing with my 2001 jetta gls vr6 12v and each year just add more and more to it,like you said don't owe me nothing and never getting rid of it it's a great cruiser and can't beat the sound eh...have a good one dude.
Beautiful job man.

If your still around the 845 area we have a shop on Warwick where are are building a mk4 big turbo GTI and also doing a 1.8T swap into an Opel GT.
Such an amazing jetta! Props and a lot that you said are facts i love this car and im looking to build on from top to bottom JUST because I love just like you addressed. #915
Thank you man! Yes Alex car is absolutely beautiful! It’s a pretty amazing build
Where did you get that grill I been looking for days for that never seen this one till your video
This makes me wanna build my mk4 😭😂
i got those same Oakley's playboyyyy
Yooo that man is a strait up playboy lol
What fuel are you running in the engine if you haven’t dropped compression with a head spacer? E85? 93 or 91?
So he runs 91 but only runs 10 PSI basically the max you can push on a completely stock block without lowering compression.
what front bumper? i want one for mine
do me next! lol!
Bro love the channel! If we ever can link up at a show I would be so down to film one of these for you
@@ThreePedalGarage just message me and we can get the ball rolling.
smells like crayons
Haha yep! It’s a MK4
set of seats up for 1st grabs? Bryan always says he doesn't hold things for anyone and first come first served. Glad to feel vindicated in knowing this isn't the case.
He doesn’t hold things. Alex left work that day when they were put up for sale and picked them up 3 hours later. He was first come, so he got them
@@ThreePedalGarage thanks for clarifying, something always felt off as R32 parts FLY as soon as they get on the site, almost as if people had prior knowledge to the time drop. But this IS different for sure and it was first come first serve. Ok good, I was always skeptical to it because it's hard to find people that genuinely uphold that ideology to be equally fair to everyone. Good to know this was still the case here!
@@ironfistscientist ya he upholds first come first serve. if you are looking for parts you can let him know and he will sometimes let you know when he has parts coming in or when they are going up on the site but he will put them up there for everyone to have a chance to get them.
@@ThreePedalGarage ok a generalized time frame isn't bad at all as anyone who asks may get the same info, good to know, thanks!
WHAT MODEL OF WHEELS IS IT?
These are CCW LM5t I think.
I had a 1999 mark 4. It’s the square body. He just doesn’t know.
🤣😂🤣
I bet he vapes
That’s not a mark 4. It’s a mark 5. They came out midway through 1999. It’s a 1999.5 mark 5
Definitely not the mark 5 looks completely different and didn’t come out till 2005
Thats a mk4 Jetta. I drive my 2003 MK4 GLI 24v VR6 every day. It's not a mk5. It's a mk4! Shut the fuck up with that misinformation brother. Mk4.5 dropped halfway through 2004 & had an upgraded body kit. They are called the mk4.5 & they are extremely rare. There may be one for tbe mk3- mk4 but what you just said is absolutely bullshit about the mk4
Definitely a mark 4. The vw a4 and b5 are my most favorite vw cars to date.
