christ fella that drive looks different to a couple of weeks ago! does this mean the other engine swap has taken place already?
;)
Just curious about this Audi box, I didnt know they made one that is used in an Mid rear car:eh:
Also, with this way of mounting the engine, are you gonna have to hack the car up like pull has had to do to make it fit? lol
the audi box is off a frontwheel drive a4/a6 they put the engine and box inline tho so all good to use for midmount north south
the car will be cut about yes but hopefull not as much as pauls
sam i did the engine swap i think it was 2 days after you was over fella
and paff i tried the wheel on the hubs just to make sure all was well and it was tf
just got my new grinder its a bright orange b+d job going to try it out tomorow now:twisted:

Does that mean the Gears will be all upside down?
Instead of going
1 3 5
2 4 R
It will be something like this
R 4 2
5 3 1
Just curious how this will worklol
no its as it should be if you used the porsche gearbox and didnt invert it itd have 5 reverse gears and 1 forwardlol
