as mines a driver its 4 stud which is a pain because i want to keep 4 stud as i have bought deep dish wheels now and want to keep them  :sad:

plus the vr gearbox syncro has gone in 2nd . so i was hoping to do it on a major budget and use my original 'driver' gearbox . but i dont think that will work , but i have been tolf that the vr6 shafts bolt to the vr6 flange ? . and i will use the front brake set up but with 280mm 4stud discs off a g60

You will need the VR6 bok plus convert you car to hydraulic clutch.

The only reason i have an insurance policy is so i dont get trouble from the police, the cover i dont care about, plus i have a milltek exhaust so my insurance is void anyway, also i gt standard alloy wheels that arnt declared so they wont payout anyway. Just dont see the point in declaring the vr + im only third party.

Sweet, so you won't mind if I report you to the police for driving an uninsured motor vehicle on a public highway?!

At least I can honestly say my car is insured. I listed every single mod on paper and sent it to the insurance company.

Shot your self in the foot here mate. Have a crash and your insurance is cancelled, loose your licence. Your choice but your being a twit. People like you put our honest peoples insurance up.

God forbid I get hit by a uninsured driver (yes thats you Cable). I will make sure I collect the excess from the 3rd party :)
