Hello Chaps Long time no browsing! Mr Mitchell, The gasket you require is the 16V and we are both sure the head bolts are from a 1.4 8v polo derivative, I think the AEX code motor That sounds positively sexual, you wait till the problems are ironed out, and then imagine the noise at over 7K!!! How about your one Andi? hows that coming along? couldn't track down your build thread sad to say I long gave up on my polo and the turbo project, all the bits were sold, and the car broken for bits (damaged the shell whilst it was in the garage ), so I'm now rocking a Fiat coupe 20VT! (which is a complete departure, but a really great car, and sounds heavenly) Do miss having it to muck about with mind, think I just took on too much at the same time!,

sod that just leave them all the way in, or all the way out much easier

With the correct fluid and pad choice they are fine Expensive grooved/drilled brakes are an utter waste of money i think on a road car, look good and warp fast Stock GSF brembo discs for me every time the 256s are perfectly capable on a 1.6 polo/lupo decent pads are important, but the brake fluid is KEY, Totally stock setup 256's handled Donnington park reasonably well, only dying after about 6 laps of very hard use but with stock fluid that's never been changed for 6 years, what do you expect? and there is no way you could replicate that amount of prolonged abuse on the road, all the people saying your brakes are crap and spending massive money on gay discs and bigger calipers I would try it out with a decent fluid and fresh stock discs and then try and then make your opinions on whether they are crap or not

Dave lupo front susension setup is the same as a mk4 polo poly bushes for the front bones are available

Rothe and TTP Take your pick,

what the crap does driveability even mean? style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

You've TOTALLY missed the point style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" /> Its the driveability! I CANNOT believe you have forgotten the Driveability style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

no rpm limit and no boost limit on a 1.3? 1000bhp+ here we come then! these things will be crazy fast!

powerboat? there for gay's you know ha, seriously though, those Wally things are pretty immense, think they even have a carbon fibre toilet seat it would be a big sailing Yacht for me, Oyster are bringing out a 125, that would do me nicely

early gtis were 5 speed no? difference in the weight of driveshafts? whatever next, extra vw badge on the air filter? major difference there

what heavier front engine? the GTI motor will be no heavier than a sport one..

silly boy! How you gonna attach the engine now!

Its the worlds largest plastic ferret

well, not really, as i dont own a lupo i have a polo and its not a 1.4, it really wouldnt be fair
