  1. Very nice indeed now hurry up and get some pics up!
  2. As much as a bargain that car is for everything, it requires hell of a lot of work to get it road worthy. No dash so all that needs wiring in, and the roll cage is a bit to garish. The car I have in mind to build is a sleeper. Looks like a standard corrado on the out side but a monster is hiding under neither
  3. Was followed then followed this VR6 today and gave it the tumbs up as I got the blast of the VR6 on the over take :D Reg: L*** BPD [ATTACH=CONFIG]68390[/ATTACH] Was blue and sat on some nice shiney dished rims. Followed me down the A48 then over took me then I followed you up till Cinderford where I turned off to my house and you went on into town. I was in the golf estate. Any one on here?
  4. Ooo good find will have a look into this
  5. So where did you guys get your engines from?
  6. Got to try ent ya ;) ---------- Post added at 11:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:25 AM ---------- Where is the sale thread/add cant find it unless I'm being blind
  7. You don't want a smaller 24v in exchange do you :D
  8. Got sacked from my job as a bingo caller yesterday. Apparently a meal for two with a hairy view isn't the way to call out 69
  9. The engine came from a bora 4motion so would mk4 AUE code I think it's the standard ecu with a map can't remember which one tho. I think the map is just a generic one to reduce the throttle response as on the 24v it's very sensitive
  10. I couldnt agree more. Need the extra power to warrant the AWD
  11. Does the R32 engine sit a bit higher than the smaller 24v engine like mine? As I know mine sits quite close to the bonnet. But when/if I put a R engine in mine there wont be any need for the standard manifold which should shave a inch off the height ;)

    AWD conversion

    Also seen it done with a TVR and mk2
  13. Trust me there is no convincing needed, all ready have in mind what I want to do when the AWD is installed :D
  14. Looks great mate, wish I had chance to have a better look on saturday.
  15. Looks nice dude. Your plate is wonky or is it me :D
  16. I forgot to ask you on saturday whats the R32 like putting the power down? my 24v can easly spin the wheels if I floor it and even in 3rd when its wet
  17. A few pics I have found on facebook [ATTACH=CONFIG]68261[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]68262[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]68263[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]68264[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]68265[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]68266[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]68267[/ATTACH]

    From what I have found so far I need a Golf rallye rear beam assembly ( like trying to find a needle in a hair stack then) Seen a few on german ebay so far but nothing in the uk. Found a good website that does a few parts I will need too http://www.dutchbuild.com/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&page=shop.browse&category_id=15&Itemid=111&lang=en&vmcchk=1&Itemid=111
  19. I was thinking more along the lines of mechanical fitment (engine mounts ect) instead of electrical as I know that will be completely different.
