So with the yellow VR6 gone and parted out I decided that I needed another project ontop of the vento and the beetle!



So then I used all the stuff out of the VR6 and came up with this bad boy...



Everything swaps over nicely...Hydraulic clutch is a straight swap, gear linkages, exhaust, wiring loom, ecu, dash, cruise control, sub frame and engine...THE PERFECT CONVERSION!

Its almost running I just nee to put the fuel lines from the bay to the motor and plug in the loom and its good to go! I will get some more pics when I have time!

I guess you could say the VR lives on?

Looking very Australian. Haha. Goodwork with the swap. Are cabrios originally 1.8s or 2.0s?
