  1. if you've already got the golf you might as well cut the golfs out and save money
  2. Don't waste your time mate the 1.4 tsi is almost as bad as a citron their crap it's like their built out of cheese verry fickle engines that only a few people other than vw can work on so much so the motor factors don't even supply parts for them so you have to take them to vw for parts and work done. The 2.0's are a bit better but still prone to issues that involve full rebuilds
  3. you don't need to change to peddle box with a agu engine and yes it has the strongest internals their the same as the bam engine code and easily capable of 300bhp the G40 flywheel is stronger than the standard duel mass that are prone to failing their a bit of a chocolate flywheel yes you need to crack/flash the ecu to keep your clocks and ignition key yes to the custom loom and mounts but on the gti im sure you can use the standard gearbox mount with the 5 speed j2o box on the lupo you can use the lupo sdi shafts on the polo im not sure but with the derv polo using a 1.9 then the shafts should be the same size as having a 20vt I also think you can use these mounts to yes to custom downpipe you don't need the vr6 rad but itll help in cooling you can also use the polo tdi rad forge do intercoolers and pipeing and just use the lsd out the golf the engine came out im doing 1 in a lupo and this is what ive been told to use from someone whos done between 10-15 conversions hope this helps
  4. you can but you need to match the cable to the version of vagcom otherwise ross tech blocks your cable from working it is also very temperamental with its connection wich isn't good if your trying to map
  5. No im telling the other members what a good job he did and what other class touches hes done. Also I didn't know it was his so theirs no need to be a smart arse.
  6. Not that I know of bg02gar (I'll have a scout about when home) but I do know a guy who sell them cheap
  7. Puretone :- addicted to bass Cragga :- mr postman Fkatwigs :- two weeks Nasty jack :- one spliff a day I kissed a girl meets pendulum I'm not afraid to say I like dubstep
  8. its also got a mk5 dash with custom rear arches it was in pvw a couple of months ago
  9. Norpan where is the speedo pick up sensor is it in the gearbox? If it is does that mean that when I do my conversion and use a golf box should I then be able to run golf sized wheels, I'm planning on running 16's but I don't want a stupid 35 profile tyre as the pot holes around hear would wreck both wheel and tyre and I want to keep my speedo as accurate as possible.
  10. bloody hell you lot must be driving them hard I get about 350miles to a tank on a 1.4s with mushroom filter and full custom exhaust
  11. Cheers pal you've been a great help
  12. It is possable as you can put anything in any car with enough work. No I don't think it would be worth doing as the engine your wanting to use runs on golf engine mounts meaning you've got to change them and if your messing about welding in new mounts you might as well put in a 20v turbo, basicly the amount of work you'll be doing out weighs the the amount it's going to up grade or increase power added more so by you wanting to supercharge ( <- not cheap) where you can pick up a full 20vt car for about £300-£600
  13. ive got another couple of questions for you 1. how much roughly did the engines weight lower the car as ill be running big wheels and very little drop because of the 12 speed bumps I need to cross to get off my estate so a couple of inch sump clearance might be a bit of a pain in the ass 2. did you need to fit the bonnet risers or was that a style choice? 3. was the intercooler a custom job or is their a off the shelve option? 4. can you still fit the inner archers in? thanks for any help Carnievaile
  14. you've gone for g60 brakes, can you use others say like the golf gti's / seat leon fr's from doner car or don't they fit? what rear callipers you using, lupo polo gti's? is it the same situation with the hubs? oh and ive been told to swop out the clutch for a single mass / g60 combo (duel mass are known for been softer than ice cream) is this what your doing or sticking with standard? im very interested in your opinion as im collecting the parts for the conversion for a planned install during winter
  15. im just in the process of collecting parts until I get our lass another car so I can have mine back that's all ill be doing for the next 6 month or so that and looking for something for her lol
  16. Hello peeps im new to vw's but ill be jumping in (up to my neck) as im planning on a 20vt conversion on my lupo. Im from Yorkshire so im your typical Yorkshire lad that speaks his mind and sometimes I put my foot in it so if I say something that offends please don't take it personal or to heart. have fun guys and peace out CarnieVaile
