Sorry for lack of replies, barely on the comp now :)

Anyway, raised the engine and got some 6n driveshafts off my mates polo and turns out the one i need is an inch too short :huh:




Both ends of the driveshaft went..

Bodged a 6n drive shaft to fit and work, going to pick up a proper ibiza drive shaft after work tomorrow and now i've raised the engine the driveshaft is knocking on the very corner of the notch, so going to take an angle grinder to that tomorrow night :) but for now... she's back on the road!

Raised engine means less angle and therefore stress on the suffering driveshafts.

i meant the whole concept of this car in general. not the raising of the engine.
