Got the Girlfriend's Polo revamped again... (YES THE BUMPER SITS WIERD, NEED TO SORT IT AT WEEKEND )

G40 engine running standard 113bhp (with cup car exhaust) at moment, goes to 150bhp next month once she's got used to the extra increase in power.

Still nif naf and trivia to do on it yet to get it looking nicer but it'll be sorted before Mod Nationals.

Enjoy...

she is a beauty!!! will see you at mod nats for sure, I f you see a tall guy touching himself whilst looking at the car - probably me

Yeah cool. Wasn't sure if any Polo peeps may be going. Going down with my girlfriend's car club, British Mods. Taking a 7man tent, if you gotta camp, then do it in luxury. Its got room for the Polo to be parked in it at night!

looking good mate, love the look and the stance, the wheel really suit! good job!

beautiful car!, is that a cherry bomb by any chance?

No that isnt a cherry bomb exhaust, that is a G40 cup car exhuast makes lovely nice.

interesting, where would i get one, for how much and hwo does it sound!

I was breaking my G40 Cup Race car, my missus saw the exhaust (aswell as the rollcage) and wanted it.

With the G, it has a nice purr, and its a good noise. Its a custom built one, single rear silencer, no middle silencer, straight thru, no baffles.

nice looking mk2 that!! bet it suprises a few people with the g40 under the bonnet!!

this is a f-king porn car!

how are you tuning it to 150bhp next month then?

thats sweet man!! love her!!

Thanks

Taken some work, but its getting there. Had it all apart yesterday, fixed the wonky front bumper, it was just the bumper cross member twisted.

We took it all off, and Jibber (my missus) rubbed down all any surface rust marks from the welds and also general rust bubbles at the front end, re zinc primered and painted her up again, also did the grille spoiler and slam panel again aswell. On the look out for another single headlamp grille now, or a debadged one.

Did abit of porting aswell, ported out the G40 inlet manifold and throttle body and dewedged it. Dont see a point in putting on a larger GT inlet as its not having big power mods and dont want to lose that initial torque. Then painted up the inlet manifold, although the TB still has to be painted cos of the time we had it all back together (1am).

Getting the charger scroll serviced with new bearings and seals in it, then putting it in a 'special' ported charger of my own creation and chip and pullying her (with G60 greens aswell) and remove the crappy boost return.

Gotta wire up the gauges yet (oil pressure, oil temp and boost (lighting)) and put the bonnet pins in, then start on the mk1 golf front arches. Got a month to get them welded up, fillered and painted.

Its getting there.

where have i seen that car before?

is it the 1 that belongs to the girl that was on club polo?

Dunno is it?

is it hard 2 fit the g40 engine into the coupe s and what else do you need?
