How much is the insurance on this beast then?

[robz]

lol, think i was thinking the same as adam then

will defo be keeping an eye on this!!!
will be nice to see a seriously good looking and fast mk3, doesnt happen much, lol

Under a specialist policy the insurance will not be too bad.

If it's the same as a mk4 r32 it won't be that bad. Probably a bit more. But it's worth it. Lol. Going to email a few places now

Some useful info from ed38:

if using vr box it will all go back in on same mounts

you might want to looking into get a special front mount made like the Vf

Acr do one for the converson

also use a dubpower 6 branch so you can use your exsisting vr6 exhaust system

plug and play looms can be made to keep mk3 clocks running on r32 ecu mapped but you can use r32 loom n ecu if changing dash etc

if using vr box also might wnt to change the diff and final drive to maybe a 3.94

Pm Vento_gareth on here and he can give you some info

im doing the same conversion just after players this year

fairly simple to be honest

I'm glad you are going through with the r32 rather than the vr6 as a vr can be bought as such where as you will be building the r from the ground up! Car is gonna be a beast mate good luck with it!

I'm sure the vr won't be much harder. Just will cost a bit more for the actual engine it's self. Plus also having to update standard vr parts ef clutch.
