Posted 14 years 1 month ago #16176There is a V8 that would probably fit... Audi with the A4 box with the engine behind the seats and the box hanging out the back. The shafts on the A4 box are close to the bellhousing so it may work. It's been squeezed into a MK1 MR2 so it's possible....Rough Luck;16135 wrote: I know I'm label as the bodging nutter with the mad ugly motor, but I really need a V8 in it...lol you could help build that one.....lol

Posted 14 years 1 month ago #16211I can't tell you how happy I am that didaster has been averted :woohoo:
If it hadn't been for all the great advice I have had from this site my recently purchased 1st sportscar would still have it's original 13 year old OEM look instead I have been converted to the 'darkside' :jedifight:
Hence....
Lexus rear lights
Clear front indicators
Clear side indicators with chrome trims
Polished fuel filler surround
Wind deflector
New T-Bar with speakers
Leather arm rest and steering wheel
Polished seat belt escutchions and seatbelt guides
Chrome ashtray and lighter
Fixed instrument lights
replaced heater resistor pack
HRW switch and relay installed
Kenwood ICE hed unit
and.....
4 11 spoke alloys, awaiting tyres
AP Racing brake calipers which I am half way through reconditioning and repainting
I had NEVER touched any previous car I had owned apart from topping up fluids and replacing bulbs and it was solely because of all the help and encouragment on this forum that I have got this far in such a short time.
So a massive thankyou to everyone who has contributed to this excellent forum :thanks:
Also, I would definately be up for some track days :whee:
I would love to meet up with other members - anyone within striking distance of St Albans?

You do realise, now that you have proved yourself, the torch is now passed to you to go off into the big bad world and encourage others to do the same.
Glad the site has helped so much.
Good to hear positive feedback.

Thats a great list of mods, I'm going the other way turning everything chrome to black.
