Damn, I'm too slow. The inlet hose has been taxed. Let ME know you for any reason you will be getting rid of the strut brace.
Just wondering would a strut brace make much difference on a lowered car, If so I might just have to go and invest in one.

Yeah it will be up for grabs as i'm not selling it with the engine. I will let you know when the time comes.
Sorry, the strut brace will be staying in the car, you can pick them up cheap on ebay though.
Its currently at 170 - goes in for its work next saturday
Sweet!! I would love to of keet the 16v but making it quicker costs more than i can afford!
I will let you know about the gearbox as i really wanted to sell the engine and box together.
I doubt anyone will want the engine & box, if it's going in a golf, they tend to prefer using an 020
I was just hoping that someone would want to upgrade a 1.4 or something as the whole wiring loom, ECU and dials will be sold with the engine and box!
Or put it in a Arosa
haha didn't want to say anything, not sure how much of a secret it is!

Myself and Martin M started work today on striping his donor car ready to put the 20vt engine into his mk2 gti 16v
We're using another mk3 as a donor car as the majority of it bolts straight in and it seems people are crashing them left right and centre at the moment
Today we got most of the wiring loom out of the engine bay and majority of the interior aswell
Here's a few pics for the moment and i'll update them as we get further with it

do you need some sort of dummy sensor or something to stop the airbags goin off when u start pulling out the loom?

ah right i see. from the wiring loom out of the mk3, what did you do with the wires for the computer in the dash, just leave them dead?
left all the wires dead, i didn't use any of the airbags in my conversion and we're not going to in this one, anything airbag related has been removed and the warning light on the dash will be covered up

Lol, just colour it in using a permanent marker or something, that should do the trick
haha ben put some black tape over it today!
airbags have there own control unit under the centre console which they are wired to, not sure what other control units they use/share but i didn't want them in mine so didn't bother fitting them
they shouldn't be hard to refit if you wanted them as there basically plug and play
