TBH I can't be bothered. The Passat is more interesting and that doesn't have a project thread.
I have bought a 'utility motoring' item which will be used for commuting, one way or another (and both in any given situation).
1Z TDI motor. CL spec. Cheap. 167k. 2 owners. T&T until Aug 2012.
It was advertised as a TD.
I have put some sh*t 15" alloys on it with Toyos on them, as I had them lying around.
I will be replacing the O/S front wheel bearing tomorrow, as it doesn't sound nice.
The POS stereo will probably be replaced for one I have lying around.
It will have the tits driven off it and then I might put the engine in a Transporter.
If the front brakes wilt they will be uprated.
It is surprisingly rot-free, but then it doesn't have sill covers.
If anyone has any links to tune the 1Z, please post them up.
Abuse goes below.
