selling 95 civ for 98 VW golf, got questions
Im selling my 95 civic dx auto and am getting a 98 5spd 2.0L golf.
The golf is a hell of a lot cheaper on insurance and will make a nice 4dr family car but it is lacking on the power side. Anybody try bolting on the 4cyl turbo parts to this? also what has anyone on here done as far as a engine management /family car.for a W. dont want a vr6 swap or that just thinking litle turbo, smic, 5-7 psi winter.

the civic is slightly moded and riced around with and im try to stay away from touching this one. its just hard to have a stock car when the REX is away. if its a big problem to do this that would be perfect

A wife and a son I think I need a family car. I keep smoking my sons head of of the LCD screen everytime I lift him into the back seat(2Door) so with this 4dr VW im gonna put headrest screens in. I told the person who is buying the civic that they can keep the screen and system I just want my ps2 out of it

are you from canada i forget?
VW are decent cars, but as for turboing....depends on which motor, I've heard the 2.0 is a bitch. And if you want to keep it cheap, you gotta run on FMU.

I just got a call and I was saposed to get a tranny with the car because it grinds in reverse. now I need to find out the price of a tranny and if a 1.8 tranny will work in it. its a 2.0. Tommorow is the day I take the golf if I want it.

1-5 works perfect, goes into reverse perfect. when ur driving backwards the tranny sounds realy bad, grinding with speed of car in the tranny. Id like the golf but need a reliable car

The 2.0 tranny's are known to be a little on the weak side, I've known friends that are big into VW's and they are always talking about the tranny's. Go to www.vwvortex.com that addy should work and read up there. lots of good info.
