Yes: change your 17"s for something a bit smaller :P :lol:

But seriously, good luck with the project - will you be starting a project thread with pics and details as you go? Would be cool :D

you would think so eh, i think you would need something in the back to dstribute the weight a wee bit better, cos its gonna be really heavy! go for a more user friendly engine me thinks, plus you don't find that many VR6 engines below 100K plus the majority will have been ragged. go for the 1.8T 150bhp or 180bhp, will be aesily as quick due to it being lighter. 180bhp one will most likely be a fair bit quicker. only bad thing is you wont have the v6 roar :lol:

Should haul in a straight line. There was a guy on here from Holland who had an indian red mk5 vr6 with colour coded billet wheels which looked pimp.

Dunno if he still posts though

What makes you say it's an R32 engine? Doesn't look like one to me :?
