Thanks for the link Ryan, but I think I'd be better off with a complete car so I get the loom and other ancillaries.

Doh! - cheers ben, I'd completely forgotten about the turbo sitting there, so I also think that the downpipe may be required as well.
I do have experience of arsing around with turbo's, so can't believe I didn't think of that earlier.

Quick bump for this, as I am considering this myself. I'd love a mk4 110 (non-pd) tdi conversion but due to lack of skills the 1.6TD sounds more likely. I've got a couple of questions about this conversion, which are probably aimed at MJK 24, unless someone else has info on this. Loom - can the loom...

Cheers OMR.
I think I'll order one of those universal 190mm x 60mm mirrors off ebay. Which should mean its 2cm shorter at each end ;)

Hi, I've actually been doing some work on my Scirocco recently (it is now MOT'd - yay!) and I am looking to replace the damaged rear view mirror, possibly with one slightly smaller that I won't hit my head on. However my car is 15 miles away, so could someone do me a favour and tell me the size of a...

This is on my list of things to do on white, personally I was planning on just grinding them off.
The back of mine is going to be carpeted though, so I wasn't too bothered if it was a bit untidy.

I'd prob be interested in a GRP 'race' one .... really can't justify a carbon one, but if/when the order is placed I might be able to stretch that far.

I know you say you don't really know about weights, but it'd be nice to have a rough idea of differences between them.

My experience was that bigger front brakes were a large improvement, braided hoses were a large improvement, bigger servo and MC helped my brake feel a lot and pedal travel a little and rear discs are an utter pain to balance and they make no real difference. My mods were in that order. Good tyres ...

No help here I'm afraid, but I have the same problem as well ... it must be contagious.

I've not tried to sort it on mine yet, but was going to check the things you guys all ready seem to have done, so don't know where to start now

All of my electric window switches are now broken so does anyone know if there is a replacement that fits neatly in the shroud.

Thx
Chris

I am still trying to convince him to put a 4+e 'box in for the ultimate cruiser, plus the torque of the 2.0l should fill some of the big gaps between ratios. Sorry to go a bit OT, but I'm slowly getting used to the 4+e in mine with the 1.9. I hated it at first, but its growing on me, 30 in 1st, 50+...

I'd try different pads.
I'm currently using Pagid std and they create loads of dust. Previously I've had Pagid FR, Greenstuff and Mintex and none of them created much dust, so not alot to clean off ;)

Wheels arrived bang on time mate ... and they now fitted to my almost road legal Porka :D

junglist I just tried to pm you about this but my messages are sitting in my outbox and not going anywhere - is your pm box full?
email me if you can skattrd "at" gmail "dot" com

Cheers

My dream conversion ... 240bhp tdi
