    Just wonderin if its possible to fit the mk3 golf 2000 16v 9A bottom end to my 1800 kr head or am I better off gettin the corrado 2000 bottom end?? Got the chance to buy a complete 9A engine with polished and ported head, but id probably just mate the bottom end to my kr head. Im pretty good mechanically, so no worries on that score, just never done a conversion like this, so what to know the ins and outs before I buy the engine and find out i cant use it.

    I had a GTD as my first car about 4 years back, was a brilliant little car, and it went really well. My sisters got one(aswell as a vr), but hers doesnt go particularly well. Its done over 200k tho

    Good luck mate. Im pretty luck in the fact that I love my job, but I know a few people who hate their jobs and it must be the worst thing to go to work every day, not wanting to

    I must admit that I do have respect for BMW as a marque, but theres no need for him to say somethin like that to you, what a to55er.

    2.1 8v

    My mate did this to his 8v mk2 golf gti not long ago. Will find out details for you. Off the top of my head he used 2.0 pistons with a diesel crank (Thinmk off a passat, not sure though). Not sure what con rods etc he used

    h100vw: Yes mate, I have put a 30 amp fuse in, but it is a tsr loom (Was already fitted to the car)

    Goin from owning a Golf mk2 8v gti, I found it quite hard driving my valver corrado. With the 8v, all the power straight away, whereas with the 16v you have tpo rev it to get goin, but once it gets goin, it really goes

    Had a similar problem with mine, the main beam wouldnt work, enden up just bein the fuse in the uprated loom

    3mm Spacers

    Rob Heath replied to G60Dan's topic in Drivetrain

    I had 25mm on my golf, so had to buy 25mm longer wheel bolts plus locking wheels bolts, cost me about £50 odd

    I replaced the back brakes on mine not long ago and guess what, the allen key bots rounded. Just warmed them up with oxy acetylene and they came off, i replaced them with new one, about £1.50ea from vw.

    Ive ran t1s's for a couple of years and i personally think that they are brill. A few of my mates have the t1r's and are supposed to be even better
