Hi folks
I have a some upgrade options available to me but i'm not sure which way to go.
I have a pre facelift mk iv sport with the ASZ engine and 6 speed box (recently bought)
I also have a facelift AXR (pd100) ibiza sport which already has lowering struts,springs and a rear ARB
I'm thinking about transferring the ASZ with or without box and driveshafts and hub carriers for potential brake upgrades into the facelift sport as it already drives and looks better.
I'm guessing i would have to swap the ECU and instrument cluster but i wonder if this is even possible from pre facelift to facelift. Any ideas? More i think about it, an engine swap is probably a big job.
I think the easier option would be to swap handling mods onto the pre facelift but it would also need front wishbone rear bushes amongst a few other things done.
part of the problem is I much prefer the black of the facelift over the silver of the pre facelift. (silly me)
I can't see an easy solution other than scavenge injectors and turbo from silver one. (don't want to do that yet) If the cars were in similar condition with and both with life left in them, what would you do?
Thank you!
