  1. Looks awesome, wish I had the balls to pull something like this off.. keep up the great work!
  2. One of my favourite pics:
  3. I'm doing it this week so I'll let you know mate.
  4. So all that's needed is the engine, gearbox, loom, ecu, peddlebox, left side engine mount and I can put the Polo GTI 1.6 16v engine into my Lupo 1.0? Could you help me source the correct mount or sell me one? Would I need to change the driveshafts? Thanks for the help arosabinns.
  5. Are you sure that's the only difference? Sell me it.
  6. Okay matey, what a shame. Thanks!
  7. Quite a bump but just to clarify, a 1.6 Polo GTI Engine is a straight swap for my Lupo 1.0? Just need engine, gearbox, loom, ecu, transponder?
  8. Thanks. I like yours too!
  9. Painted my interior door handles silver, not finished the rest so still a WIP.
  10. That's what I was thinking about the golf engine, yes you're right my car is an 02 plate. Unfortunately buying another Lupo is out of the question as I've done too much to this one to make it viable. I'll have to look into other conversions rather than the 8v 1.6. Hopefully someone can shed some light on what's compatible with an AUC engine code. Thanks for all your help it's really been appreciated. The engine code is AUC, the gearbox is ESY. It's FBW throttle and a cable clutch afaik. Anyone?
  11. Also found a 1.6 AEE engine from a Golf, any ideas if that would work? Thanks.
  12. Anyone know anything about a AUR code 1.6 as above? Thanks!
  13. Painted my calipers, put on my dice caps and washed/waxed the car inside/out also got my private reg and plates on. Not much more planned at the moment, looking into engine conversion. Decided to take some pics as it was a lovely day. Also took some of our landscapes. Thanks for reading.

    Sidelights Problem

    You're right mate, was the bulbs even though I bought more than 2 heh, thanks.
  15. Ah right I see, I've found a Polo Saloon 1.6 8v with engine code AUR, do you know if this will work as I can't seem to find anything about it as it's the only breaking car I can find locally. Really need your help on this one as you appear to be the only person who has done it. Get some pics/vids up! Thanks for the help.
  16. Received mine today, thanks again!

    Sidelights Problem

    Hello all. I really need your help, I bought some LED sidelights from a member on here which are great but no matter how many I try the drivers side always appears blue unlike the passenger white side. Any ideas what would cause this? It's not the bulbs as I have multiple and I've checked all the connections and they're all intact and stable. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I have a local car event on Saturday and it's really put me on a downer not being able to use them correctly.
  18. Really helps matey, few questions though. Was there any reason you went for the 8v over the 16v? My lupo E's engine code is AUC by the way and I also have a spare ESY code gearbox which I could change the internals into? So I don't need to change the loom just get the 1.6 ecu, engine and gearbox then swap internals with the 1.6 injectors?
  19. Quite a bump but just to clarify, a 1.6 Polo GTI Engine is a straight swap for my Lupo 1.0? Just need engine, gearbox, loom, ecu, transponder?
  20. Payment sent! nic78 his paypal is soozy06@hotmail.com
  21. Received them today matey, thanks alot.
  22. Have you posted mine out yet mate? Thanks!
