Silver! Posted December 11, 2010 Report Share Posted December 11, 2010 Looks good - loving the OEM-ness. Not sure about the light eyebrows, but I love the interior.Prefer the Oz Saturns to the BBS(?). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V3 1UPO Posted December 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2010 There not oz saturns there ronal r7s lol they do look alot alike tho.It started it's life as a 1.0e so trying to keep it standard sleeper exterior with a gti interior feel like I said not finished yet so plenty more money to spend on her before I'm totally satisfied ;-)Thanks for comments Gareth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaileyVW Posted December 14, 2010 Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 (edited) Ahh Just noticed this because of the forsale thread... like others have said love its oemness , looks like a really nice install. Could i possibly get a tiny bit of info from you? What engine have you used for the conversion and how low does the sump sit?? I've been looking at a 20vt engine from a golf, and when in the lupo the sump sits really low, low enough not to be able to run the car right down on its arse, i should have probably got some precise measurements but nevermind... Just wondering if your sump hangs low or not? I've heard you can get shallower sumps for the golf.. i may have to take a look into it.

V3 1UPO Posted December 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 Nothing to say about sump sitting low! It Does like a biatch........ Lol in all fairness it makes no difference how low it sits if u fit it u know where it sits so Ur not gonna drive it aggravated around the streets where theres speed bumps! It's about 4-5 inch off the floor only an estimate as not measured it. But I reckon if u went at a speed bump at 20mph and lowered think Ur gonna have a pricey repair job as I pretty much stop wen I go over them even train tracks. Hope this helps buddy I can take a photo of how much gap there is if needed buddy just let me no Cheers Gareth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only up for sale as Iv got a daughter that's more expensive to run than any car Iv owned.The money Iv spent on it is a deposit on a house lol need to stop now before my baby girl ends up on eBay lolCheers Gareth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
