Monza gtx tdi
For a long time i have always liked the idea of a turbo diesel mk2 . Why you ask ? , Well, why not ... Almost got to the point of doing the conversion to the red shed, but thankfully a buyer turned up just in time.
Whilst searching through the sciroccos for sale on the facebook site, i saw this monza with a twist - A TDI [emoji4]
Ok so here are the current specs that i know of so far
256 brake setup front
Golf mk2 rear discs
1.9 tdi from a 1996 mk3 golf AHU engine code.
Pro sport coilovers
Pirelli P slot alloys
Uniroyal 185/60/14 tyres.
Goes like the clappers.
, Ok so down to the obvious - adding MY touch to it ,
Stage 1 remap ,
Straight through exhaust,
Add boost gauge
Upgrade headlights,
Replaced clutch ,
Replace gear linkage bushes .
Stay tuned for more updates [emoji4]

Good find.
Looks like a well done engine conversion, nice and tidy.

Re: Monza gtx tdi
Paint the radiator cowl and rocker cover and that will tidy it up no end.
I used this paint on my radiator cowl and rocker cover and it's been fine with the heat and oil for over a year, a quick rub down and spray, all done in a day.

You can get jet black which is a glossy black or a satin black.

Re: Monza gtx tdi
I do like the idea of a Tdi! We looked at one for my wife's Golf cab, and are still thinking about it for her Type 25. Both our daily drivers are diesels - my little Skoda will average 59mpg on a run!
Re: Monza gtx tdi

Re: Monza gtx tdi
Glad I found this thread, I picked up this car a couple of months back, interesting history uncovered including the 'leather interior came from a custom spec that was ordered for the Bank of Canada in the Isle of Man". It's certainly the fastest Scirocco I've driven to date.

Re: Monza gtx tdi
rip the engine out and go pd130 with a hybrid turbo and custom map.. was always the idea i had planned, but too many toys so this had to go at the time.
