covered in a thread about a week ago but.....

driveshafts, starter motor, flywheel, clutch etc etc

In other words not worth the effort

Yes but you need to change a lot of parts

It is better suited 

Its better suited to a standard 150bhp turbo YES

Soon as you remap or have a k03s or bigger then NO  - The 02M is more suited.

Hence they fit 02M's on everything fitted with an S or above.

Basically what you need for conversion...

* 02M FWD Gearbox
* 02M 6 Speed Gear Linkage
* 02M Flywheel(4cyl.)
* 02M Clutch
* 02M Starter Motor
* 02M Front 2WD Driveshafts

I did say RING me if you wanted to know anything, Saves me typing it out all time but each to there own....
