I’m right here Sam it’s been a very very very long time since I updated this page and I feel like I need to post on the forum again as there activity on the lupo. So here’s the update. The lupo has been off the road in storage for many years (life got in the way). But now I have started to work on it again the engine is out and is getting a fruity rebuild the rear beam has had a total over haul and looks better than brand new photos to follow matt

don't bother with the trouble and do it properly get the loom made up worth it in the long run. trust me you can't keep costs low on a 1.8t lupo build

My gti runs 282 reliable with a stock gti pump also with the oil filter use a lupos gti filter same fitting just a tiny bit stubby you would need to service more often. And also keeps a good oil pressure matt

so its been a while since i posted any real progress on this thread. over the last two months i have managed to do quite a bit i got my subframe, wish bones and arb blasted and coated with black satin powder coat also while i was there i rebutted everything with power flex bushes. I'm working on making a new up graded dog leg for the gti as there currently isn't anything on the market at the moment. rebuilt hubs with new bearings abs sensors hubs and abs rings, also gave a spare set of callipers and carriers a lick of red vht caliper paint. also rebuilt the drive shafts cv joints. finished off with a set of ferodo racing ds 2500 pads to help her stop a bit better not many people know that this mirror is a genuine vw part. i know its not carbon but its a rare lupo part so who cares rebuilt my bbs rm's that i had lying round the unit. polished my radinox lips and finished them off with red and gold badges finally got her back on four wheels today fingers crossed i should be enjoying the 20v power more on the road now to get a gti rear beam and do a similar job to that. matt
