Nice write-up mate, you have some good spec's on the car. Fitting a VE would be a nice additional especially for the track. It wont be long until you decide that VE should be a VET Laughing

Thats a lovely well spec'd motor thumbsup

What sort of power is it running, 170hp?

Thanks!
Woody, the VE would indeed be a nice upgrade, im hoping tot het around 190-200 bhp with custom mapping, N1 cams, bigger intake with a Q45 throttlebody and a fujitsubo exhaust.

Pulsarmoley, i dont thing i have 170 bhp now, stock it was 143 and the engine is the only thing i haventje really changed som much, mainly because i wanted a VE trok the beginning. I dont have tested the output of this engine aswell.

Last week made some progress getting the car ready to get the old engine out and the VE in. Also took the electric windows out with al the wiring and the glass. The glass window will be used to make some lexan windows. Saves about 4kg per door. The wiring of the ABS is also gone, made a switch to turn ABS on of off but because its always off im deleting it aswell.

Took the dashboard out:

Tracktool Sunny GTI IMG_20160409_45958
The new wiring for the Greddy MSS and VE solenoids will be integrated in the normale wiring loom.

Also took the front off starting to make room to take the DE out. Next thing is to make the front bumper bar lighter and delete more wires under the hood, and modify it to fit the VE.

Amazing how much weight you can actually free up when removing stuff. Good to hear you're making progress.

Just as a starter you can remove 2 massive pieces of weight at the front. One under the radiator and one behind the front bumper. Wiring weighs also more than you would guess.
