i had some polished d90's mate they where very similar thinki prefered the look of the d90's tbh but never mind.

i cant really drop her again till i get some decent coilovers.. allthough states of the roads at the mo I'm glad I'm not 110mm down like i used to be.

:(

can anybody tell me if all 6n/6n2 gearbox mounts are the same?

wow, is that the mount that's sheared!? I only sheared the bolt in my dogbone mount, haha!

simmy hard to make out chassis leg gone of or the mount if its the mount take it off and give it to jako at pd and ask him to get ben to make you a new stronger one

what does is handle like?

shit.. its a polo

It handles like shit not because it is a polo but cause it lowered as much as it can. No car handles correctly when you lower it so much.

does it feel heavier ?

yes defently i need new front coilovers with stiffer springs

Do you have any idea how much weight the car gained? It would be great if you could find out :D.

and whats it like in rain does it just spin when pulling off ?

spins up in 2nd 3rd 4th if u plant it

spings up in 2nd in the dry some times 3rd.

Having more than 260 bhp on the front wheels begs for an LSD especially in such a light car. Traction is impossible, turning is crap and your normal differential will be soon pushing the daisies if you spin too much all the time.

Hey mate can this cut on engine beam be avoided somehow? I don't mind cutting or modding the engine mounts but this cut looks nasty. I read that fitting the gearbox from a golf 3 gti ABF motor, is the way to avoid this. Is this gearbox a straight fit?

Thank you for all the answers.

u can avoid the shop by

a. like u said run a abf gearbox

.b mount the engine a little bit lower..

i asked for mine raised up so the sump was hiting the floor..so the chassie was cut.

also needed for a 6 speed box as well.

and

you are looking at around 5k-10k for engine swap depending on spec and where
