Jay's Jolf "GTI"... with a 1.9.. and 221bhp.
Andy:
not good news mate-hope you get it sorted soon
xjay1337:
New plan.
Spoke to Darkside. We talked about a plan over the next month or two. They really are top lads. - For now they are going to refund my deposit (they offered that straight away all credit to them) and I will just get another 5 speed box to roll around in.
I could afford to do a 2.0 TDI box transplant but it would be with a clutch that's incapable of dealing with 365lb ft of torque, which is almost just as bad as the current box.
Over the next 4-5 months, I will just have to be careful doing heavy launches and I will be upgrading to a 2.0 TDI box with LSD, buying bits and pieces here and there.
Touch wood will be back on the road next week
Andy:
The joys of nodding a car :signLOL:

TheBIGJAYY:
just read through this! great stuff mate. also an owner of a 1.9tdi :smiley: going to get a build thread up at some point!
nice to see someone having a go at modding the 1.9 engine, i have had a look but as you confirmed, its big bucks to go 200+bhp
very nice car though mate :happy2: love how clean you keep it!
