The Autobahn A7 is only 4km away and the condition is okay. So i can drive fast nearly whenever i like. The driveabilitiy of the 1.9 TDI on bendy roads is also not so bad as you might think. Its really not compareable to my GTI, but not too bad.

I know the difference in handling and drivability between the GTI and the 1.9 TDI conversion very well. The GTD is made for the Autobahn, the GTI is made for bendy roads. I like both.

15.039 sec @ 148.68 km/h Lupo GTI 1.6 16V modified: 120 kW/875 kg

Now the 6X looks nearly like a 6ES ...

the latest update:

i liked the rat look with the rusty wing

They were sold by Volkswagen, but today they don´t sell them anymore. You have to find used sideskirts at ebay etc . at the moment i sell at ebay.de a pair of votex sideskirts (votex seitenschweller) . the link is in my last post ^^ maybe i can send them to finland

you mean the side panels @ the grey picture ? these side panels were a Lupo GTI in their last life the old sideskirts came from votex http://www.ebay.de/itm/Seitenschweller-VW-Lupo-Seat-Arosa-Votex-/331090959345?pt=DE_Autoteile&hash=item4d168f1bf1

my AXR has 160 bhp with original turbo and injectors, i think the ARL is the better PD-engine to get more than 200 bhp

the GTD becomes more and more a real GTD - aluminium doors - GTI side panels - GTI rear bumper without tailpipe cutout GTD vs Mini Cooper S http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7wNyRRsdFc0 the GTD still needs to get a little bit faster... i have to try an ARL-engine

The Opel steel rims i used are 4 stud (Opel Astra H) http://www.ebay.de/itm/Opel-Astra-H-Stahlfelgen-6-5-x-16-ET37-4x100-NEU-4-Stuck-/190805313840?pt=Auto_Felgen&hash=item2c6ce20930

-The Engine-mods are done by Lehmann-Motorentechnik: modified camshafts and cylinder head. 1 picture of both Lupos this summer:

its easy like a 1.8T conversion. you have to change everything.

LR7X Reflexsilver

My Lupo 1,9 TDI (150 bhp, 380Nm) ran a 15,62 at Schwesing Military-Airport (Germany). The speed was 90,72 mph.

Its a 6X with GTI front conversion. The Interiour is GTI. @2nd Picture: 6x15" G60 Steel ; 4th & 5th Picture : 6,5x16" Opel/Vauxhall Astra Steelrims. Side skirts and back bumper are from Votex, just improved. ...this car is my daily bitch, a low budged-project function is priority

it´s an OEM-part from Votex. I cleaned it and painted the diffusor in black. 6X0 071 610 K 9AX http://www.vwspb.ru/files/lupo.pdf http://forums.clublu...pic=40151&st=20 more pictures @ post #31

GTD update : - G60 Flywheel - Sachs Performance clutch (420Nm) - stronger clutch release mechanism

Thanks ! both are fun to drive... tomorrow the tdi gets a sachs performance clutch.

Thanks The BTC i sold 2009. The car is now in austria, used for hillclimbing.

I think you can cut the weight to 800-850 kg. My GTI is now at 900kg including 2 Seats and a Rollcage. GTI/FSI/3LTDI - Aluminium Bodyparts will help a lot. Hood, Fenders, Doors.

i´ve got a new account, because i lost my email-adress i registered with in 2006. i still drive both lupos, my GTI is now at 5,5kg/bhp - 163,2 bhp - 176 Nm - 900 Kg URL=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/252/img6434n.jpg/] ...and my Lupo 1.7 SDI got a new engine... - 1,9 TDI (AXR) - 150bhp - 320 Nm - 5L Diesel / 100km

This is my GTI. 163 bhp / 176 Nm / 900kg

This is my Lupo 1.9 GTD In 2005 i bought this Lupo 1.7 SDI "Princeton", drove it 235.000km and last year i decided to make an engine-upgrade. - engine : 1,9 TDI (AXR), 150 bhp - torque > 320 Nm - custom intercooler - GTI brakes - GTI interior - Polo TDI 5 speed transmission - Sachs performance clutch - 16x6,5 Opel Astra steel wheels (195/40 ZR16 Continental Sportcontact2) - GTI front including Bi-Xenon
