Which gearbox have you used for the swap? Having 6 gears would be nice! Top work on your car, keep going! :D

Is a custom gearbox. Mixing the housing of the 6 speed 6L TDI and the internals of a 6 speed 1M 20VT. Because the complet 1M gearbox is not plug&play. The engine mounts are not in the same place.

Also interested about the catch can as i am about to get one for my Big Turbo project.

I am thinking of installing mine in the area where the SAI was as i will be removing it.

That is next to the oil dip stick.

Changing the SMD leds of the speedo, for other with white light.

Here you will find a small DIY thread.

All of this wires are the wiring for the four new gauges

No, the wheels are Compomotive MO5 1776 - 7,5"x17" ET35

My dogbone is the 70K. Because I had mounted on the diesel engine. It's normal some vibration if you have the 80K (Competition use)

This bush can cause engine vibration to be transmitted inside the car

Thanks for links, good job -again! But still how did you then make the white background light up in white? My pd100 is all sad black and red, so this could really help alot :)
Maybe i could buy your speedo? :p
