last one went for 8500 +vat for a full running package theres 8 ecu's you need to make it run, it went to denmark i don't know what it was for. as some else said its not a massive engine its not alot bigger than a ls400 4.0 v8 but its the box that'd be the problem it must be 4 foot long, and as for mortgage im afraid not but give me a call with a credit card and ill do it for you, capitol one would have a heart attack if they see that being ordered
mate if i had the money and was crazy enough to attempt it i would. but i am skint and the mrs would kill me. someone on here should do it thou, it would make a great conversion thread. imagine the pain thou? "help i've just blown 8 ECUs "
i think even if my boss gave me the engine id still not want to be the one to do it, its an engine out and n/s turbo off just to change the starter motor, and the engine wiring loom looks like something the national grid supplied, not one for me at all, i do deal with a company called thor racing who specialise in ls400 4.0 v8 conversions into supra's and the engine builder/boffin there graham is trying to persuade someone to buy it so he can have ago!!!!
I think there is only one person who should rightly take on this job. "FAO Ian Birch:- the entire VW Scene needs you, now"
