Old engine is sold, old engine was just a 1.6 non turbo (bit of a snail) I bought a low milage Generation 4 Golf with a 1.9t PD engine in it. its only 100hp but will computer tune to 150, if i did a turbo and injectors it would easily make upward of 250, some and with more tickling 400hp. but will stick to 150 for now. My mate has a 1.9 with a VNT turbo. and gearbox for sale

Bit of Cleaning, and stripping down today. - Soaked the Engine bay with De-greaser and then pressure blasted to clean off 20+ Years of Grime and other shit. Before After - Dash board out and factory looms stripped out, for re-routing and Splicing with the new looms - Installed the new pedal box for the Hydraulic clutch setup - Finished stripping off all the factory tape and hard plastic tubing.. heres the two looms to merge.

After a night in the Acid bath - all the crap gone, bare metal... nice! On went caliper red. Spent a hour splitting out the various parts of the loom that I will need.

Just a few little things after work today. Started to weed thru the Sticky cluster fuck of Modern car loom, thankfully only about 1/10th of that will remain after I am done with it Also degreased the replacement subframes and sprayed over with some engine enamel for a quick tidy up. Stripped the brakes off and dropped them in a tub of Phosphoric acid so that they can be painted tomorrow. - Also ordered my Adjustable Coil-overs today - 22mm Master Cylinder. - New headlights. - New handbrake cables.

The new 1.9TDI Unit Injector engine. Got my discs back from being Slotted also. Today after work the front came off & the engine, subframe and suspension all came out. That was that for the night. - Next job get the new suspension up and mounted and the body rolling again. - Strip out dash and shitty factory wiring and begin the splicing and re-looming of the car.

Re shimmed and re assembled the transmission and did a few odd jobs on the donor engine today. 1. Clocked around the turbo for Engine mount clearance. The turbo itself is very small but it will do for now. 2. installed the rear engine mount to suit the MK2 Platform 3. Deleted EGR and started eliminating some of the unneeded functions (anti shudder valve etc) Also yesterday I got my new Brake discs back from being Slotted

Discussion thread.

Hey guys, So I picked up this MK2 Diesel several months ago. The specs. - 3 Door, no sunroof. - 1.6 Litre Diesel manual - 240,000km on the body. - The body itself is pretty mint, but the paint is shit The existing motor is pretty well shot now. It looks as thou someone has rolled paint on the roof and bonnet at some point in its life. So the crux of this little fix up is Make her a bit tidier, faster etc. Low Milage 1.9TDI Engine from a 2003 Golf TDI 5 Speed Transmission Quaife Limited Slip Differential. Wide track suspension with 5 Stud conversion Bigger brakes Coilovers etc Work starts tomorrow. Although today I did strip the gearbox down this afternoon and install the LSD so that worked out good. The engine bay as it is currently.

IMO the swallow tail is ukly AF
