Did Someone Mention Volkswagen?

hate to say it boys but thats not a w12 lupo, petar (i think is his name) has spent a lot of time and money fitting a pair of Golf 2.8 litre V6 engines for separate front and rear driveshafts. now hes going to build 2 x 6 cyl. systems and use three bottles of Nos for extra go... not that it needs it

and his daily is a 50bhp 1.0 haha
 
the build thread of that is on clublupo its awsome alot of work gone into it he had to cut part of the bonnet out because the inlet was to big

Cleanest its ever been i think!

this is bullshit guys... even the moderators are spamming

open your eyes and look at some other cars, not many forums are left to just one type of car nowadays

if you're still not interested i'll stop updating
 
yeah theyre expensive but way worth it. My cars needed allsorts doing to it so far, ive kept the cost right down by doing most of the work myself, anything i cant do my dad can so its worked out alright so far......
 
Has to be at LEAST this low:

The wee lupos are sweet as hell like. That one^^ is the 1.4 16v and it's pretty damn quick on the twisties like. Got spacers now too thankfully haha.
 
mines also a 1.4 16v...

cant get that low till i can afford to buy coilovers, then adjusters out down we go

i hope he only spaced the rear, the tuck up front is awesome
 
He's 17, of course he only spaced the bit that's sposed to be! haha :D

He's got pretty cheap coilovers in all honesty. Somethin like £250. TA Techniks I think? They are a bit bouncy in town but for the price, the look is amaze! Lasted a good 6 months with no rust showing so far too.
 
ive had some experience of technix, adjustments etc.

theyre amazing for the money, someones doing them at £170 delivered now!
 
Aye, another mate with a MK4 golf got some for his for that price. TA Technix as well.

The bottom mount didn't hold up very well to a relatively small pothole. Whole strut collapsed onto the driveshaft, breaking it and the hub. The wheel came off and the lower arm smashed and messed the brake disk too.

Not very good with the fatter cars haha.
