Have'nt been here for a while, but i can post a little of what iv'e been doing. I have bought me an xu10j4 that i think i'm going to use (turbo) around 350-400hp. And my car isn't realy a car any longer. But soon it turns, to build it up again. This is when i drove it, much to check after 15 years in warm-garage. Then my black (raceobject) rear. Starting to disassemble: The interior... Plastic: Hmm, space? Starting to get away with rust and glue, paint... Not as much rust that i thougt, as i read about... Only, floor (picture) and door-mount, around the brakepedal. The chassis will be coilovers around, the torrision system will be removed totally! New brakes, proberly porsche. And so on. I will also modify the back, (u8), and a littlebit on the sides. But mostly original. The finnishing time is planned to this time next year. My budget is smaaaall.. thats why. Hope that we have more fun projects out there.

Macaroni: i'm proberly going for the v6 again. ! And no, it's not so tricky, we have xu10-peugeot205 turbo with 3-400hp here in sweden. But with ethanol it is. Spyros: ok, i´ve heard of that but i will strength:n up the chassis where it needs to be strengthen. Both a friend at "öhlins" a famous chassis-company have said that it souldn't be any bigger problem. And, do i want a v6 in the bagh. I'll make it fit. No problems. Like a friend said for a couple of years ago, "cool to have a ES4J (v6) in a 205 Gti." "yeah right.. i thought" But, look at youtube... Even if its a problem, it's not imposseble at all! You can fit an v12 in the bagh too, that have been done too. I mean, i have'nt any problems with take my tiger-saw and make some space. Well hope i'll see you some time to show you the real thing next year when this is on the road.
