Nah sold it with the motor :( Sorry!

Don't think I'm gonna get much change from

looks like you've done a cracking job , very neat conversion

Nice Work! Hats off to you.

Great job

Nice to see something outside the norm.

That carbon-look engine cover's ugly though :p

Ugly :eek: Better than staring at 4 coil packs!!!!

No stumbling block! Just use the the cable clutch conversion piece from a Seat Ibiza 2.0 16V Cupra Sport (ABF engine code) it goes where the hydraulic actuator would go but is cable operated. Then you need a Mk2 Golf 1.3 Clutch cable and bobs your uncle!!!

Thats how I did mine in my Mk2 Golf GTI!

Thing is I think the cable operated clutch is a big downfall of the Polo. The clutch is heavy (to the point where it usually snaps the pedal box) and would love to convert it. I have done it before using a MK4 Golf clutch pedal box, just needs a bit of bulkhead fabrication.

I know where you're coming from, but transplanting a pedal box, I can forsee being a bit of a nightmare, at least VW help you out with a dealer orderable part

What crazy thing are you planning in yours???

Lord knows if it will ever actually happen but I would like a 1.8T in there. Trouble is even for the money it would cost me I could probably find something with a 1.8T in it that will ultimately be a fair bit safer..lol

Did you make a full diary of the transplant??

Well yes and no, It took so long for the intercooler to get built and then it came together that quickly once it was done, it sorta looks like not a lot then everything :confused:

Mine wasn't hugely expensive!! less than

If I had the money to do it as a second car then theres no question. but when its my daily runner and needs to get me back and fowards to work etc then its a different matter.

True, but there are others on briskoda with an engine transplant / modded to very high standard and they use it for day-to-day commuting. Hey, they aren't even mechanics and it cost them a lot more than

thinking how much time it would be off the road! I think!
