so where are you going to locate the radiator ?
up front or above the engine, my kinroad buggy that has a Nissan micra engine has the radiator above the engine right behind my earoles has always worked perfectly but it has concerned me that if the rad split I would get showered with very hot water, think I will have a front mounted rad if I am starting from scratch

) - whats wrong with a rear camera then?? to be honest there is so little view from the rear view mirror I had to do something!! ;D

yeah that looks very similar, all the blocks look similar but i can see the 20v turbo bit on the plastic so i would say yes - if you take the plastic bit off infront of the wipers you should see the ecu - and as wagon said before check you accelerator pedal its probably only got a plug and a few wires going to it so youll need that too
yer it does look a bit unloved doesn't it, it been off the road for over 10 years I think, maybe a bit longer,
its outside next doors stables at the moment it was inside their barn for many years but was thrown outside a little while ago when they needed the space, it was going in a mk 1 caddy pick up but it never happened
will take the forklift down the lane today and bring it up to mine and give it a jet wash and see what we have.
will start my own thread as well to save cluttering up this one

Wagon - hopefully your checking this thread as need to ask a question have been looking at the loom over the last few days and reading up on the clutch and brake switches fitted to the DBW Golf MK4's from what I have read so far it looks like I need to fit the clutch switch at a minimum as on the DBW cars it is used to drop the revs between gear changes (and its also used for cruise control - not that im using that) - Have you heard of this?
