rich! why you no tell me all your knowledge

it has no purpose here... its just weird. where it belongs is back where it was first planted

like living in Nazi Germany LOL

gearbox oil has arrived! TREMENDOUS! TPS the shop of kings

i hate clublupo.co.uk

you cant be looking very hard! there a a LOAD of lupos running amber front indicators!

still slow progress... but Fitted the new Full SS system tonight. sounds good and looks ok

oh yeah! hahahahahahahahahahaaaaaa

keep it forever!

i cant see it popping flames to be honest

thank you

best arosa out there by a million miles! sits perfectly!

id have thought it would have come welded!?

what a bell end! ah well everything happens for a reason! means you got the new bonnet on! haha

it needs a lot of bodywork now! haha going to be a track car though, so will only be doing the necessary!

massive rebirth of a topic, but which oil does the 5 speed take? rich says G 052 171 A1 capacity is 2.1 litres. Lupogtiboy says g 052 512 a2 1.9 litres

once i had a hand to help pull it into place it wasn't so bad! its good having someone close by that actually knows what they are doing! hahaha

so, he is still in the same state as above. new gearbox is fitted, but due to the current weather situation, i havent been able to work on it fully for a whole day. So, new clutch is on, New Gearbox is fitted, all that needs to be done now is link up drive shafts, gear Linkage set up, fill the box with oil and stick the wheels back on! LOL so hopefully NEXT weekend will see him completed! We'll see! this has now taken me 3 days to do. safe to say, unless i have a ramp and a garage, i wont be doing a gearbox change again! haha

haha! I like the no spoiler look... which is good because i dont have the money to buy one! haha the gti standard spoiler is too small for me, if im going to bother it will have to be something bigger! it is pretty Rapey! but then its my car... both my cars are a bit rapey! hahaha i think The Baron is a pretty apt name to be honest!

have had a right mental weekend. turns out removing a gearbox from this silly old car was more trouble than i expected! haha hopefully will get the new one back in this week without any issues and get the car back on the road! anyway, gearbox is off, and new clutch is on. so next up is to swap all the bits from the old gearbox onto the new one and then fit it all back together! fun week ahead!

phil! i just remembered how much i loved your gti! must have subconsciously inspired me to buy the baron!

slow progress today, but i do have most things undone to enable me to drop the gearbox out tomorrow and fit the new one. Hopefully that should see the car running like it should again, and then its onto the brakes!

getting rather 'silly' LOL! i see what you did there!!!! on the girlfriend front! (sorry if its your daughter...) Xtrons head unit also gets my thumbs up! how have you got it sitting so well? haha car looks good, never have been a massive fan or 15" teledials, but they dont look too bad on this

This. i checked mine, apparently the engine speed isnt being detected properly.

i had no switches at all! i got a passenger one for the passenger side. I then needed a drivers one for the drivers side! i now have both! thanks you haha
