Hi everyone
Just registered on the forum, I've been reading some conversations are interesting also informative.
I'm based in Pietermaritzburg
I drive a 97 polo classic 1.8, currently the car is at the panel beaters, a cousin of mine decided to hit a taxi instead of taking the bend properly.
Two things I just want to do with the car when it returns
1. power
2.get BBS- CH rims
That's why I joined the forum I need help with finding these 2 things.
colleague of mine suggested I buy a ABF 2.0l 16v engine, so I googled it and saw that its a very powerful engine, but been searching for one I cant find it around PMB.
would really appreciate any help in finding this engine at a reasonable price.
BBS CH rimz I think they are the hottest rimz eva, been looking everywhere for them but been only finding 19inch, and I think they toooo big for a polo. but I'm still on the mission to find the right size.
Thank you
everyone

Re: hi everyone looking for ABF motor in kwazulu natal
Now that I think about it, you'd probably enjoy a 2l ADY in that shape more than the ABF.

Re: hi everyone looking for ABF motor in kwazulu natal
You can try Engine Center Imports, they're just down the road from Gearbox center. Be prepared to spend alot though, last time i checked in december i was quoted R18 000.
And when i say be prepared to spend alot, I wasn't talking about engine price
You'll need to address :
ECU/Mapping(Aftermarket or MP9)
Bigger clutch/flyweel
A branch and exhaust system
Consumables
And anything else that needs to be replaced on said motor
I wouldn't risk just putting a 110kw engine in a Polo 6n without doing something about Suspension, brakes and chassis
This has been discussed to death on this forum there's over 100 topics about the ABF conversion
I see you are in PMB, give D&S Auto a shout they've done many ABF conversions and can guide you on what to do

Re: hi everyone looking for ABF motor in kwazulu natal
Agreed with Yeo. I've seen a Polo playa with an ABF and it was quick, but like Yeo said it was a pricey build.
You can try Jaco's engine imports in Durban. They on Brickhill road near the Durban ICC.
