need to log in dude, save pic as upload to photobucket then post pics.

Nice wheels. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Diesel Power!

that boot looks quality, nice touch. so has anybody got any power figures for this beasty

i thought this was going to be one of the prototype super charged diesel polos.

looks cool tho, and the wheels look good in a crazy sort of way

Think standard they're like 90bhp or something

Can someone explain to me what this engine is?

looks like a 1w to me.

Probably just a 1.3 or 1.4 diesel engine overhauled and the fuelling turned up so that It could withstand supercharging. + alot of g40 bits!

Its a 1W engine equipped with a G40 "Lader"

Not the Prototype 2 Cylinder Polo.

Realy cool project, he´s posted something about in some other Boards.

Yeah Gaz it is a 1.4. My mate sent me the vids of this the other day, really interesting engine :-D

Sal. x

that looks pretty damn cool!

So its not one of the original G40 Diesels then?

No, the original G40D looks like that.

2 Cylinders,

G Charger with clutch,

here is some text the guys whos car it is said...

The engine is a frankenstein 1.4 Diesel (1W) combined with lost-o-stuff from the 1.3 G40 ( PY ). Timing (belts, poelies), enginemount, tubing: all Polo 2 G40 parts. Got some stuff from the Volkswagen museum, since there no longer available through the normall dealerships: Intercooler-wind-scoop-thingy, Charger to intercooler tubing, that sort of things.

Did modify the injectors, glowplugs, fuel lines to, so it runs perfectly on 100% veggie: running 245 bar opening pressure, with electrically/coolant heated fuel. For the wintertime I've installeds a warmup plug from DeFa to pre-heat the coolant/block

The body is 1982 steilheck ( steeprear??) with a heavily modified front: There where only about 2500 G40's ever made in the 'Polo 2' body, so not really that common. Panelwork behind and below front bumper is modified, not replaced, to fit the intercooler , tubing, G-charger, different rad-support etc etc.

Though things have till now all been done by 'amateurs', I'm now thinking to have it on a rolling road: there's more torque in there; when I open the 'smoke-stop' it goes even better then current, but the idle rev goes up aswell. Have to mod governer, but don't know where to start. To do about anything on the pump, I have to remove it completely since there's to little space to work.

Anyways: didn't figure it would get this much attention... since no lunatic ever tried it before.. (or kept it off the internet?)

Anyhow: A G60 on a (G)TD: won't fit 'this' easily..

HOORAY! more dutch people:)

mooi auto man

Very impressive!

Wonder what kind of MPG it gives?

Very cool, would be nice to know the power, torque and MPG figures...I'd hope they live up to the idea.

Not only is it mind blowing in the engine department, I think it looks great too. It's got those chequered seats and I am well going to nick that tailgate idea.

it does 1liter on 20,4 kilometers

very interesting!

i was wondering if a supercharger would be any good being fitted to a td a bit back, just seemed odd that no one had done it yet.

G-Lader should work well given that it produces a lot of its boost in the low RPM range...given thay diesel is mostly about economy turbo is prob. preferable.

shame who ever made it put techno music over the top would have been nice to actually hear the engine!
