  1. Hi there - I havent used club lupo for a very long time.

    I sold my silver lupo sport last year and i was wandering if anyone knew the whereabout to it?

    I sold it to a best friend who sold it to a man in his 40's for his wife.

    The car is a silver lupo sport

    Chrome teledials

    Parada spec 2's all around

    wheels stick out about a inch on the front

    indicators in the fogs

  2. The mechanical is nothing, the electrical on the other hand is, easiest way is to strip interior out, strip dash out, take front off car, take engine and box out, take complete wireing harness out, now fit polo harness you will have to do some plug work and if you have central locking and electric windows it will be a pain, then put it all together again.

    ps No, ARC or AVY code engines will not run off AWH wiring and Ecu

    would be easier if you got lupo gti harness

    That's exactly what u thought! Isnt polo gti engine fly by wire? And awh cable throttle?

  3. I've been looking and ive found thread polo gti conversions but non specific to my need so sorry if this is a repost :(

    I'm getting a lupo with engine failure and it needs a new engine, the engine code is AWH

    I can get a polo gti engine with;

    5 speed box

    wiring loom

    ecu

    key

    transponder

    manifold

    water pipes

    header tank

    mounts

    gear selectors

    starter motor

    and all the sensors.

    All of these parts are OEM polo parts and it needs to be fitted into a lupo with the code awh

    My questions are -

    Straight fit in?

    what mounts do i need?

    anymore info i should need?

    any before you ask i'm a honda specialist, not volkswagen :( The more info the better :D
