You can also get synchro mk3's in Europe. Unfortunately they were never sold here so are pretty damn rare and LHD.

thanks guys. i know you all will most properly laugh but this is what im doing and have got planned (may change)
- taking car apart to bare shell. redoing the whole shel to make it immaculate
- putting a custom fit evo 4 wheel drive system with a 3.5 nissan 350z engine in the golf
- its gunna cost alot but this is what i want to do and when i wanna do sumin ill do it to the best of my ability (money providing ha)

been quoted £10,000 for the work and im willing to pay a little more incase there is some things they have missed. they said to keep £12,000 to be safe so thats why im waiting till next june to get the money together.

i want sumin different and im sure no one has done this before

as my previous cars its gunna be one of a kind :)

ill keep you updated but im doing little bits at the moment to make what i got at the moment a little better.


hope ou dont think im stupid but they isured me they will get it to work :)
