Hey all...
I thought i'd begin this seen as im giving the Polo a little more attention now ..
Well im onto my 6th coupe now.
I bought my black G40 from glasgow which a bus decided to hit!
So i found another RED GT shell local to me and the process began..
I Almost had this completed... when a saw a Clean Black GT shell ....
Im a sucker for a Black coupe... so i done it all over again !
Now I only had my black G40 on the road a couple of months back in 2009 ...
Ihave never Driven the car since!
I now Drive a MK2 Ibiza Gti 16v.
I Work in a garage and also my own work in a shared lock up.
NOW... i used to start the G engine every week or so and let it idle and run a bit then for reasons i cant remember now i took the Head off ..
I fitted with the Metal gasket replacement
Then I bought a CUP box off 'polo classic' think his names craig wallet if memory serves..
Fitted with a nice Quaife Diff
I took my flywheel to Agra engineering scotland,dundee
Im sure they took the weight to 4.4kgs... i think it was 7.0 ... i wish a wrote it down ..
Then Start to Build back together ....again!
After this i decided i Wanted a 4branch manifold..
so i bought one ... just not the right one
.... so after this didnt fit .. i decided not to muck about anymore! i was going for the better equipment and i knew i wanted a high tuned G40 ..
I found myself hunting down some bargains!
Firstly i got a PPP stage 3 subframe ..
Then right after a got a PPP full exhaust and a manifold too! ..
Then Yoof nicely supplied me a R1 spec charger .
So the spec list was somethings like
R1 jabbasport charger
PSD 65mm toothed belts
G60 injectors (with vw jackets)
GT inlet manifold
Piper 270 Camshaft
Full PPP exhaust & maifold
Standard bottom end
Metal gasket
Kevlar coat Clutch balanced
Lightened & balanced flywheel
Cup box with Diff
Uprated Driveshaft!
