Re: The Toad's DG to AGG Gti Conversion

Excellent. You have had a good off-season clearly. Well done for making a small profit on breaking the golf. I know that's a bit of a thankless task but feels good when the engine is free! Currently there are 3 GTI conversions underway from golfs I sourced ( 2x mk3 1xmk4). Looking forward to a few t...

Re: Syncro engine swap - DJ to AGG

Loving your work Patrick. fWIW - the black block is often corroded on so a quick grind / recip through the bracket speeds things up . If you are feeling frisky I would remove the drive shafts all together one way or another if you need the car to remain on its wheels . to get the gearbox past the CV...

Re: best 1z donor vehicle?
