Hi Alex,

I don't suppose you've still got access to any original bolts? I probs need around ten?

Cheers,

Looking good! Do you mean the engine mounts from the Ibiza sub-frame when you say 'cut them off'? Or do you mean you mean the engine mounts from the polo classic? My mate has almost finished re-building his ABF and is planning to run it with throttle bodies and possibly Emerald management. That woul...

Did the car behind you with orange indicators get 2nd? I'm off back to the box in the garage for mine if he did!!

I'm 6ft 3in and have more leg room in my polo compared to my passat.

I wouldn't bother, it's only going to add weight and slow down the 1.0l

Just get down to the gym and work on your arms...

Fair play to you for giving it a go!

I've recently been to collect an ABF (2.0 16v golf) lump with a mate and looking at it on the stand without all the 16v induction it doesn't look that much bigger than a AEE.

I think Josh means the frenched Mk4 16v bumper with a Mk5 plate recess plastic welded into it on the previous page!

The pulsing does sound like the tb, that's what mine was doing before I gave it a really good clean. Does the cable look OK?

I'd also seen this:

Best of luck with getting it sorted!

Have a good look around the thermostat housing to see if it's cracked. Has the water pump ever been changed? Is it using any oil, or coolant? Is the air in-take standard? Was the coil you put on a scrappy one or a new one? When was the head gasket changed? Lots of questions, though I've got a 1.6 an...

This should help:

Cheers for that!

Offer accepted. Now I can get on with the 16v hubs with G60 brakes and lower it at the same time!

Could you post a link to the TA coilovers on eBay please?

I could be wrong, though I think it's got a 272 Newman cam in it!
