cost a fooking lot mate, got all the paperwork for the whole build but dare not tot it up just yet

the engine was not cheap, it was the exact engine i wanted tho and the right miles (40k) and these engines are getting very hard to find with those miles(as i found out). i didnt want one that had been in any other dub or conversion - it had to be one straight from the original car. it took me ages to find the right one i was hapy with (as you lot on here know haha)

Job could be done for a couple of K less if you chose a regular 20 VT.  We used the best of everything we could for this, everything had to be spot on. im so happy because this car is close to been what i had in my dream

I want Big bad ass breaks and a LSD next..  but the remap is next soon as i get paid


Bens car is getting a V6 engine too so that should be a fun project when it happens

I'd also be very interested to know the totals if you dare add them up

If you ever do work it out (and don't mind sharing the info) hit me up with a PM, i'd love to know how much this conversion actually costs doing it to a high standard

Breaks wise

Porsche brakes i think it has to be given the wheels if they would fit. Maybe boxster ones like people fit to mk4's and a3's.
