just thought I'd better start a thread for a project that I've been working on for about 9 years.
had a car in 99 i had done up fine (IMG:http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m257/pparoxysm/Img00010.jpg) but one day the passenger door would not open,and said hey how about an engine swap, bought a 2.2 six and then realized 125hp was not enough, so a v8 became my goal. Destiny had other plans. (IMG:http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m257/pparoxysm/IMG_2267.jpg) The car I had built for my wife was finished off by an eager srt4 neon (IMG:http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m257/pparoxysm/IMG_2249.jpg) I was the driver had my leg broken in 3 places, but I lived. (IMG:http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m257/pparoxysm/IMG_1129.jpg) out came the motor (IMG:http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m257/pparoxysm/fitiing.jpg) in came the new motor, a g60 lysholm (IMG:http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m257/pparoxysm/coolerhole.jpg) but where to put the intercooler? (IMG:http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m257/pparoxysm/Dec2007-Apr2008110.jpg) might aswell go wide (IMG:http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m257/pparoxysm/n628350769_1398620_7398.jpg) mocking up stage. I replaced the bondo slante nose look with fiberglass fenders (IMG:http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m257/pparoxysm/sale253.jpg) now that 90% of the bodywork was done it was time to get the car to actually run, and just this last weekend I did get it running. The reason for calling it a stuka is the lysholm charger sounds like an air raid siren. I will post up a vid of it running when i get a chance. |

Thanks for the all positive feedback. Another plus to this swap is that I will be ditching the 901 for a b5 passat tranny with boxster shift linkage.

This is definitely awesome. I have a 1989 Syncro Golf 4 door, a 2001 1.8T GTi with a 3071R and my wife has an 01 Jetta. We are a vag household. |
