basically what is needed?

I'm guessing not much?

done the breaks already...

cheers. sonny.

depends...easiest way is to get a donor car and swap everything (what i did)

is the engine coming out of a same era polo,otherwise the clocks will need to be changed and therefore the interior loom

you will also need to make sure that you have the immobiliser parts

basically you swap out everything from the engine bay...including your radiator.

there are several threads on this listing exact parts...but as said, your better off having the car there so if you need any other parts you can get at them easily

i cant find any threads on it? do you have a link?

just scan over the last few pages within this section...theres atleast one you can see with my reply on it listing what you require! theres also a FAQ in the appropriate section as well... :-)

alright thanks.

i have tried to find before i posted but i could not find anything for 8v-16v

there was a few 1.0 to 16v I'm guessing that was the one were on about as there was a reply from you?

http://www.clubpolo.co.uk/forum/index.php?showtopic=220662

is the 8v-16v the same as that then?

cheers.

just buy 8 more valves from VW and drop them in the oil filler cap, might rattle on first turn of the key, but it'll be reet when they find their seats.

Either that or search as I've replied to about 3 threads today with the right information

yes that is the reply you wanted to see...that guy has a 1ltr 8v mk4...he wished to fit a 1.4 16v...which is basically what you want to do.

Getting bored of replying with the same answers all the time big fella lol =D

I'm not asking for sarcasm nor for people to tell me to use the search button.

all that was needed was a link.

dubbprince, so there is not an actual thread on 1.4 8v to 16v...... but thanks anyway

panda, why comment if your not going help?

thank-you for all your help.

Sonny.

The search button is there for a reason...you were told to use it to save having the forum cluttered with similar threads

8v is an 8v doesnt matter what litre engine it is!!!! they are the same and the thread will still aid you.

Sonny,

I could create one...but it'd be almost identical to the GTI one already in existence.

Let me know what you're stuck on, but for the time being buy a mk4 16v donor car and swap everything over...its that simple. :-D

sean, like i have already said, i have tried using the search button but could not find a 1.4 8v-16v conversion.

i did not know that it was going to be the same for all 8v otherwise i wouldnt have posted.

dubb, Thank-you very much for your help. much appreciated.

ill let you know if i need any help. :) cheers.

Hey I'm pretty new on here, I'm also lookin to do the same sort of thing exept i wanna know how difficult to swap my 6n 1.4 8 for a 6n2 1.6 16v gti lump, i got engine gearbox wiring loom and ecu just need to know if engine mounts etc are different and drive shafts, if anyones got any info will br much appreciated :)

best bet is to do a full re-shell... mounts wise everything will line up no problemo :)
