[snakemaster]

Picked up this golf the other day in silver going to stick a 1.9 M TDI in her but what gear box will work best the one in it will sit at 52mph at 2000rpm but looking for 65mph at 2000rpm ,i have a 93 1.9 td box , and a 1.8 8v gti box , 5th gear up grade , what have you guys done


8x 14 banded steels and decked out

better gear ration in the o2a/02j box... also stronger for all the sweet torque imo..

Any of the boxes with the lower 5th will get you down there, even the 3.94 FD ones.

Sweet will have a look , i would put a 02a tdi box in but no gear remote and dont fancy puting the hyd set up in for the clutch .

I have had no issue with my two 1.9's on 020's.

I can flat out tell you they both have power, more than what people have told me they have shredded these things with..

I think if those people shredded a trans with less torque than I have, they are going to damage an 02A as well.. and they probably drive it like a retard.

Friend just blew up his second trans on a stock 2.4L Cavalier...... HOW DO YOU DO THAT!?

I've always wondered how people blow up a trans too, with a stock (or even worn out) engine

2000 revs @ 65mph is IMPOSSIBLE with an 020 trans, unless you have HUGE tires..

my mk2s have ACN trannies, and they turn 2450revs @ 60mph..

those junk cars are/were built 10 min from me... thats how/why they junk... nuff said 8v?

I recant previous.. I was looking at km/h... IDIOT LOL

020 out all the boxes i have 2000 rpm 50mph is the best , hoping to pick up a polo 1.9 tdi with a asd box and the cable shifter , so i will put the hole shooting match in the sucker 2000 rpm at 60mph MTDI its going to be sweet, no 8 MTDI
