Well folks I believe that it's time I said farewell to the SVT, after having my tranny rebuilt because of it grinding between 2nd and 3rd, It has now decided to really mess up. I can only grab 3rd and 4th gear and I can do a cool box with the shifter. So to say I'm frustrated after waiting for 2 weeks for this to get done and now it is way worse off would be the mother of all understatements. So tomorrow I believe it's off to the VW dealership to get a 2001 VW Golf GLS 1.8T 5 speed in blue with black valeur heated seats. And since she's gonna be for sale I might as well part her off too.
ALL PRICES ARE CANADIAN $

Zach, I'[m probably in for your headers. I'm assuming that is $750 canadain. You already know my e-mail, but here it is again,
timeless420@hotmail.com or call me at (416)818-2723. You know I'm local to you.
Also are there any scratches on the coating yet?

Your gonna regret that purchase! Why? Because you need to wait six months for the 1.8T to get the 180 hp and six speed as well as recaro seats! Just think about it, supposed to cost less as well. 02 model try VWVORTEX.com for info.

How much in american money for the underdrive pullies, and what is the condition and miles on them? And how much for the rest of the stuff in american money. The superchip and headers are also interesting.

Well your info is a little off. The 1.8t will be rated at 170 not 180, and after you chip the engine the output will be the same as the current car. The six speed only comes with the vr6, and I want the 4 door which wont be available with the 1.8t in 02. Also I 'm paying 750 over dealer cost, which is 2 grand off msrp.
