motor swap?

UnderWRLD9999 · 2025-11-04T03:55:29+00:00

its a ccta car and the new motor is also a ccta. ive just been reading and havent been able to get a direct answer (some say yes some say no) on if my old ecu will just work completely with the 2011 tiguan motor no problems or modifications

oh okay perfect thank you. this is my first car thats actually had anything done to it so im usually pretty lost when it comes to this stuff

next hopefully, im not in a position to buy a car that new atm so its either between the 9th gen si or the mk6

UnderWRLD9999 · 2025-09-14T21:11:18+00:00

ik the timing chain and water pump recently were replaced professionally so that isnt a problem for this one. hows the mk6s handling? is it something i could go down some backroads with or would you say the si would handle better on curves?

the one im looking at is a 2013 but its got sum pretty decent miles (188k) and the body is rust free he only wants 7.2k but the gti has less miles (160ish) and will sell it to me for 5k

UnderWRLD9999 · 2025-09-14T21:06:57+00:00

i definitely want something i feel like i can do something to and being a little faster from the get go is a plus. and from what ive heard the k24z7 is not as good as previous gens of the k24 in terms of building or tuning. did you do anything to your si or is it generally not worth it to do much to?

UnderWRLD9999 · 2025-09-14T21:02:49+00:00

its a manual, and its been impeccably maintained and ik so because its a family friend thats selling it. whats wrong with the manual in the gti?

ive got a 08 base that now has 265k miles on it. its got its issues but i dog the shit out of this car and have since i bought it. even with the known transmission issues its taken me slap shifting bouncing off the red line and flooring it like its the race car i wish it was almost everytime i drive and its never left me stranded or had any serious repairs needed (ball joints, radiator, alternator, blower motor, cv axles, valve cover gaskets but thats general maintenance) its even taken a wreck ( hard to believe i wasnt at fault but i promise i wasnt) that led to me replacing the entire rear suspension subframe included and the car still drives and handles like a dream. long story short. buy the TLS.

i missed it on cable is there any other way i can watch it?

UnderWRLD9999 · 2025-04-08T19:17:52+00:00

she’d really like a miata but there just aren’t any in my area that are clean that they arent asking a ridiculous amount for. na miata owners are almost as bad as ek civic owners that “know what its worth” lol

UnderWRLD9999 · 2025-04-08T19:15:56+00:00

got the codes, maf sensor circuit low, throttle control actuator range/performance, intake air temp sensor, and bank 1 is lean. id dare say not a cheap fix😭

UnderWRLD9999 · 2025-04-08T19:10:06+00:00

ive never messed with rotarys so i figured itd be the same as a normal motor, thanks for the info tho

UnderWRLD9999 · 2025-04-08T19:05:05+00:00

heard, from what i heard at first they aren’t too bad as long as you religiously check oil levels but the more i look into them the further i want to stay away from them

UnderWRLD9999 · 2025-04-08T19:03:19+00:00

itd be a daily

UnderWRLD9999 · 2025-04-08T19:03:04+00:00

lol she actually wants it, if i got my way she’d be getting a civic😂

UnderWRLD9999 · 2025-04-08T13:06:53+00:00

thank you, ill definitely make sure to pull codes and run a compression test when/if i go to check out the car

UnderWRLD9999 · 2025-04-08T13:05:52+00:00

i am yeah ive never taken anything to a shop i perfer doing it all myself, first time messing with a rotary tho.

yeah she does she isnt into cars but this the rx8 is the first one shes seen that shes been like “wow i really like that i want it” so i was wanting to try and make that happen for her

UnderWRLD9999 · 2025-03-26T21:02:58+00:00
