    Dave dont worry my 15 stone will sort the front out lol

    now manual or dsg

    Forget the dsg mate they can't handle launches with 250 + bhp so is hate to see what happens to one when its got more power going through it plus the mecatronics give up on them pretty often to. I've managed to kill 4 of them so far just by launching them

    Re: B18FT Rear engined RWD 5GTT (Scoff old 5)

    Well decision made

    Going to keep it nice and easy mainly due to lack of time with other projects and cash lol

    Going to keep mid engineed and rwd only but use a k04 lump or cheaper tfsi k03 of which both make easy 290ish with not drama and put on oem management. Keep 5 speed box but may have to change fd but will see

    Pull out and start again with mounting and few other changes. Finish other bits off and use as a daily for a while. Skoda vrs estate went back yesterday so buying bigger family bus for those duties and towing

    Got vx220 tfsi conversion and few other things eaten up feb so prob sort it march

    Will try to take pic's

    Will take a few years i'm afraid! But the most challenging work is done, now it just needs hours and hours to do the rest!
