Were very lucky and have state of the art facilities to build our track weaponour mole   the plan is to lift the engine and gearbox out and fit it to the second gti 6 we have purchased. The engine in the second 6 has done 100k and is still very strong however the mole engine and box are mint and has very little mileage. Both cars in view  mikey starts stripping the interior  tom removes the front bumper and the starts removing all the bits in the way   great care is taken to remove the sitcom bits and bobs  all the front end removed    started at 4 ish and finished just at 8 ish. Planning to get the track car in next to start on removing the engine. We hope to have the engine swop done by this time next week and the we can start setting her up. ________________________________________ Previous cars:309 xsi 309 goodwood 205 1.9 gti x2 2x gti 6's sierra saphire 4x4 cosworth escort cosworth Subaru rb5 suburu sti 5 massive power subaru wr1 evo 7 gta evo 8 mr 320 |

Might need to raise the rev limit on certain tracks though. Or stick with the 6 box! ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |
