biggerbigben 0 Posted February 13, 2007 Lol talk like that is what going to make me put that rs6 engine into my passat lol ;) U and Paul are dangerous for my health and wallet lol hehe.. sorry dude... but get that RS6 engine in sharpish!!! :lol: Update: Just trial fitted the rear beam - it fits, plenty of room! Over 10mm clearence on the fuel tank at the closest part. Can't trial the diff yet as I need to remove the cover on the end of the prop. Needs grinding off! But I measured from where the diff will sit and it will fit the prop perfectly! So pleased.. Need to spin the car around and get started on the front end now!

vr6banana 0 Posted February 13, 2007 I found the top bolts were a tw@t to get in with the fuel tank fitted. What you using as a controller for the Haldex? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biggerbigben 0 Posted February 13, 2007 Yeah, thought about that.. Will prob fit the the diff to the beam and lift the whole lot in on a couple of jacks! Haven't decided about the controller yet. I have a couple of mates, both of which are building/programming something as we speak! Fingers crossed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vr6banana 0 Posted February 14, 2007 Has the rear axle have ABS or not? I’ve sent Phatty some Haldex info I had, not sure if it’ll be of use but it may be worth asking. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
