My Golf is a Supercharged 3.2 V6 RWD running approx 380bhp

It's pretty awesome when you kick the arse end out !

Hey Joe, I'd like to ask you some questions bout how you did your mod for the rwd vr6, send me your email or something

Not to burst your bubble or anything but if you look hard enough you can see in tiny writing

and then i woke up

Heya mate - He was just taking the piss, he never owned one!  :grin:

If you look at what Joe has posted there is really, really tiny writing which says "and then i woke up" just means he was taking the piss.

Oh, Lmfao i see,

Well ive been searching this idea for years, I plan to do it one day but do you have any idea how to convert the front wheel to rear wheel on the vr6 without changing the location of the engine, and something more lasting than removing the front wheel shafts and leaving it to the synchro rear differential apparently that system is fragile?

I dont mind the money so much as long as its not as expensive as doing a e46 csl m5 conversion where the engine costs 15K that will be fine.  I can find most of the other mods but I wan to know maybe what maufacturer like bmw or mazda etc could i borrow a prop shaft from.  I dont wana put the engine in the back.  This is gona be my daily run around, i wanna see out the back lol.
