  1. A lot of the poorer examples are slipping away now and leaving behind the cared for cars. I would expect to see them steadily (slowly) climb from now on. Look at the prices asked for, for ropey old mk2 Golfs!
  2. I'll look into it for you. Are there any other VW models around the world that might use this switch?
  3. You're right, I am very proud of how this has progressed. Its been an adventure Its just been good to help people out.
  4. Hey Chris, Yep as stated, the oil won't surge to one end or the other when hard cornering. There are two shaped walls inside the sump. Another good plus point to the sump- its Alu. Lighter and dissipates heat quicker, acts as an oil cooler.
  5. Hi guys, I bought this from the group buy recently. Never fitted and undamaged. It looks like I don't need to keep it anymore as an engine I'm going for has a protected steel plate sump. I saw there were a few asking the group buy if anymore could be found after they all sold out. So if there are no takers then I can go back and them if they would still be after one. To fit the sump, you need paste which is £15 from TPS. I will supply a tube I bought for the sump. I'll take a pic or two tomorrow if needed. I'm after £90 ono posted which would cover my outlay on the sump and paste. It will be sent in a well padded strong box. Cheers all.
  6. Hi Sam, Yes I've still got some left, working my way through the batch. Shipped to Belgium is no problem, the last couple of weeks switches have gone to the US, Germany, Spain and Austria. I'll pm my details for you. Many thanks to Jon for super quick payment, what a top bloke you are :thumbleft:
  7. Looking good buddy, how's you Scott? I see you've got under dash bits that are different to UK ones, nice beige interior. Always find those strange American seat belts funny, can't get used to them at all. What plans have you got for it?
  8. How's the woofer? Poor thing. Hope you recover soon mate.
  9. Just like buses, two come along at once. I've been after a standard undamaged airbox for ages. Whichever one that doesn't get bought, then can you let us know please.
  10. Hi Will, Yes I'm afraid it has mate. I've deleted each description as its sold, only the pics stayed.
  11. I watched that film Death Race the other night on telly. I can see where this is heading :thumbleft:
  12. Wow, thats some postage there :bonk:
  13. Cheers for your reply about the OBD2 Kev, looking forward to a vid Jonny. Chat to you soon buddy.
  14. Haha Rob, well it only came onto the market yesterday and had to ask about it straight away. Check out the sale threads. Don't worry, if I do get it then you'll be fully involved with it!!!
  15. Haha I would swap for a VSR no problem!!! Not due to your post Kev but I have decided to put the sale of this lot on hold for now. There's a chance of a new engine, so I might think about using this setup whilst its out of the car. Sorry to be a pain to any interested parties in this.
  16. Hmmm, maybe but wouldn't the remap with this engine be better than an OBD2 setup?
  17. I don't understand a word you techy nerds are talking about!!!
  18. Thanks for the chat earlier Jonny, good to talk as they say! I would provisionally say I would go for it, if you could let us know about the points we talked about at the weekend, that would be great. I would want to take the complete package mate. Many thanks Matt.
  19. Could be interested here buddy. My engine is a bit smokey now on the overrun. I've thinking of R engines but to me that's going to be hard work or expensive. This is a more straight forward option. Not sure what questions I need to ask but can you give any more details and pics please?
  20. Of course I can do some movement with the price to help you out rather than hold onto it forever and a day waiting for the top price. I'm guessing you would need postage, so I can send it with no charge for posting plus knock a tenner off. £240 posted, saving £25-30. Sound fair?
  21. Sorry I don't. TPS are helpful though. Need to see pics once you've got it wrapped, fun change.
  22. There's plenty of slam panels from breaking cars. Would be mental to buy that new! Hope you get it all sorted.
