mind you with that much dollar you could get a decent VR6 Golf complete anyway

at least you'd have a running donor then

Is there not a way to fit it behind the front seats with rear wheel drive? Now that would be cool.
If you did want to fit the vr6 though I think I would get a complete car and start measuring etc. It'll be possible but you'll have to be prepared for some headaches along the way. My mate had the VR6 Golf, it was as cool as :censored: He had it lowered, stainless exhaust and diffirent headlights. We went pinging up the Angus glens one night in the wet and that thing was mental, it drove like it was on rails. I was fixin his comp and had forgotten a disc so he popped me home to pick it up. My sphincter was fair puckered at first but I was soon lovin it lol. You can still find good ones for a couple of grand.

that was my first taught aswell but i'm told very difficult compared to putting it under the hood
