Just scored a VW Turbo Diesel with under 100km on it, who were the guys that already did this swap, anybody????

The wiring and fuel isn't a prob, just wondering where u got the tranny adaptor plates??

100km :eek:, 1.6 or 1.9?
I made a few blank adapter plates out of 3/16"plate. holes need to be transfered.
Got mine from Roadless gear. I hear the Acme Apters are supposed to be really good.

1.6 turbo out of an '84 Quantum hehe, and the adapter plates u got, how much??? trade ya fer a bunch of sami parts u might need!

[SJKrawler]

cost?????, something reasonable, but trade would work fine. What kinda parts you want to trade? We'll work something out. There is some parts that will need to be machined, flywheel and pilot bushing, you have access to a machine shop?

[TheSarg]

machine shop no probs, but insight as to specs/what needs to be machine would be awesome, i consider this one of my most exciting mods to the zuk as of yet!

As fer zuk parts, go check my "complete parts list" under the for sale section.

Cool, you have, or work at a machine shop or something like that? If you're ever out this way you can stop in and have a look at my diesel so you can get a good idea what you need to do.
You would'nt happen to have any all-terrain tires around 31" would ya? Just picked up a plow, swampers suck in the snow.
