Its an ex-rockingham cage mate, so not a home made jobbie, its an original one made by custom cages, but its the rear of the cage with the front and front brackets chopped off

Credit Crunch......what credit crunch ????

i thought that engine in that car must be a bit crazy but with nos i thinking you might be nearer insane.
i bet its good fun though.

 

[kezFR07]

how much to get nos in the car? i want some haha

 

[ibiza_95]

the kit cost me 250, then bits to install it maybe another 20quid... it was a second hand kit, with the bottle resprayed and a new decal bought for it.

Its easy enough to fit yourself, as long as you read the instructions properly you cant really go wrong

 

[kezFR07]

hows it work u got a button on the steering wheel like in the films? i havnt a clue mate ha

 

[ibiza_95]

theres 3 switches... one is a master switch, like an earoplane one that activates the system... then you got another on the trhrottle body so it only works when the engines at wide open throttle... then another on the steering wheel as like a go faster button lol

Hi there mate i have the same engine as you an AGU 1.8t out of an audi a3 which im tryin to put in to a 97 ibiza gti im just having a few troubles and wondered if you could help me...i was wondering how you mount the engine in. as my mount on the left bolts on the block and the mount on the car is at the left rear ?.... also my centre mount is on the back of the engine and its on the front of the car...?

also i was wondering about the ecu you got, did it come with a wiring loom and plug straight on to your sensors if it did ??

I also wondered why u changed the brake servo is that because it got in the way of the engine?

hope to hear from you soon thanks alot alex

hiya mate,
i used the original 2l 16v gearbox for a start which means that i used the same front engine mount, and the same gearbox mount. The 2l 16v engine mount should fit the block and therefor mount the exact same as on the 2l (this is on an ANF engine)
With regards to the brake servo... this needs swapping for one off a mk3 ibiza cupra 1.8T as the standard one fouls on the cambelt and cover, so you wont be able to use the standard one full stop...

The ecu i got is an aftermarket one from Qpeng, which comes with an ECU, map, and loom so all just plug and play really

The A3 might have been mounted longitudinally, which could be why the engine mounts are different to on the mk2... you should be able to make up the right mounts from off an ABF, or use the standard ABF gearbox to use the same gearbox and front mount

Hope that makes sense

Top motor, remember a few years back at inters when this was still a 16v.

Hang on..............You chopped up a Rockingham cage?

 

[ibiza_95]

well... i bought the rear section, so i had to chop the front section mounting lugs off it... no idea where the front of it went...

I also remember that time
When i got beat in the QTR mile by another 16v... that wont happen again

 

[Damoegan]

The A3 might have been mounted longitudinally......

A3's are tranverse mounted.

Nice one mate some impressive work gone into this.

 

[joey-gti]

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!
Top work buddy!

 

[alex_shepz]

Hi there mate, got the engine outta the A3 n now mounted in the ibiza, I'm going 2 get a thread put up tomorrow.
Also got an S3 inlet manifold but the AGU injectors won't fit...is this why you changed your injectors the S3 ones?
Cheers
