Snoopy Posted September 16, 2004 Report Share Posted September 16, 2004 So is there anything that is designed to be easily accessible for servicing etc. on the 1.8T that won't be when you've fitted it in the Lupo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackrat Posted September 16, 2004 Report Share Posted September 16, 2004 mmmm looking good, did you drain the oil out ???what gearbox you gonna be using ?just a thought , why dont you make up 3 or 4 subframes for the 20v conversion, im pretty sure alot more people would do this conversion if they could buy the subframe ?

Snoopy Posted September 16, 2004 Report Share Posted September 16, 2004 Good idea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexfernihough Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 it's not just the sub frame tho it's all the pipework. driveshafts and everything else needed for the transplant.only things i was told they take over are the engine, turbo and gearbox everything else needs custom making.

tdwindustries Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 you can get driveshafts ready to wack in.... just got to remember the web address. but to be fair, if someone made a sub frame it would be a good start hey alex!

jr Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 if someone made the subframe, as a conversion kit, this would make the convesrion so much more accessbale for people, it would be like the 2.0 c20xe vauxhall engine into a mini, the subframe is 1k, but makes it so much easier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest `sps-si` Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 sounds like a plan. i will see what i can do. i would love to be able to offer it as a diy conversion that would be well cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachel Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 :shock: That is so coolI met Mat at e38, and he told me about this, but I didn't think it was happening so soon.I want one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jr Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 Put it this way, make a subfram and ill buy one style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
