Kirk, I agree, but let's have some fun. I have never met a vindictive HONDA! I've met some vindictive Miatas, BMWs and GTIs, but no HONDAs (after all, the HONDAs have nothing to be vindictive about)Originally posted by Knestis@Sep 1 2005, 12:27 AM
I don't buy that this situation is that cut-and-dried, or that most drivers - Honda, ITC, or otherwise - are quite THAT vindictive.[snapback]59462[/snapback]
Bill, thank you for finally moving this somewhere where we VW racers can all see it. I can't imagine your motivation for originally raising the issue in the ARRC thread. For the record, I did not add the '84 Scirocco 1.7 to the listing. I believe that it has either been there all along, or was added by someone before I started paying attention. I have, however, seen a handful of them over the years (mostly in boneyards) so I have no doubt of their existence!
Derek, I'm out of the country for a few more weeks. If I recall after all these years, I think the gearbox information that you seek may best be found in the early '84 Scirocco Owner's Manual (not the '84.5 version -- check publication date on back cover). Where the '83.5 version showed two sets of break-in speeds, the early '84 version only showed one. Get it? Now, go get 'em!!!
Cheers!
