I wanted to know if the crankshaft in a ARC (polo GTI) is stronger than the AVY (lupo GTI)? I've heard that the ARC crankshaft was somewhat forged? but can't find any information online. If both crankshafts are the same, what would people recommend as a alternative stronger crankshaft? As I was think a diesel crank from a 1.7 SDI would be strong enough to withstand a turboed 1.6 GTI. Any help would be appreciated

Need help with lowering my car with 13" inch wheels
LupeCeeJay replied to Owenjones91's topic in Volkswagen Lupo
running 13's on my lupo sport, all i needed was spacers to clear front and rear calipers... camber my rears and front (easy enough to do) to fit the tread under the arches (13s, 7J, ET0, 18mm spacer) .... no rolled arches, cups out, cut my bumpstops... hardly any arch gap looks amazing and is really low!!! -
cups out, cut bump stops (to get a little lower without knocking) or remove them (will get alot of knocking tho), think FK silverline spring (correct me if wrong) or corsa spring go really low, if you swap them

Few pictures of my lupo, thoughts? The Alloys i have on my car atm (got new centre caps which are flush and flat, just getting them resprayed but like the two colour effect atm ) Mt White BBS alloys... My central exhuast, had it removed though (have a new rear bumper now, which is spotless)

Cheers for the help and im slowly saving, got £200 but i rather buy good secondhand coilovers than cheap new coilovers like TA or JOM which are rubbish on comfortability (from what i hear)

Ap coilovers on GTI giving a horrible ride!!
LupeCeeJay replied to looploop91's topic in Volkswagen Lupo
How much do you want for the coilovers -
i didnt think so but ive been looking for cheap coilovers on ebay since i only got £100 available to use and theres no secondhand coilovers for lupos, only polos so i thought maybe they may fit.. Always worth asking
