Hi folks,
i would like to seek all the sifus advice on a project car I am building.
I got a wira 1.5 manual carb in pretty good condition for a good price and would like to build a machine for spirited driving.
Do't have much budget to work on so the priority will be ride and handling, brakes and engine.
I don't fancy turbocharged engines but am keen on either working on the existing engine (port & polish, cams, weber) or dumping in the 1.8 liter engine from the GTi. Can someone advice me of the pros and cons of the above options?
In the braking area, does anyone know how much it would cost to replace the rear drum system to a disk system?
I was thinking of using the R3 suspension system to take care of the ride and handling part.
Any advice would be appreciated.
