    Keep your eyes peeled over the next year or 2 for my Syncro!

    Might also be the only V8 Syncro in the country? (any one know?)

    Haven’t explored your site too much, but do you have a project diary thread? If you do, i can keep you guys up to date with my progress.

    Looking forward to tearing up the ‘Pod with some of you in the future!

    For a mad Syncro you may also want to read this thread.

    Thanks for you help Chris,

    405mm fronts and 355mm rears!

    I found quite abit of that interesting due to the power i’ll be running, especially the uprated running gear bit.

    Not a syncro, but a transverse V8 in a Mk2 Golf.

    I know this might be being picky but does anyone else think that putting the aluminium steering rack as the lowest point of the car is a bit of a bad idea? (lower than the front subframe even)

    obviously it’s a mental-bental-chicken-oriental conversion and fair play to them for pulling it off…but still – the first kerb he has to drive over he’s walkin’ home.

    Also given the size and weight of that motor and the nos bottle in the back – much of the frame holding the motor in place looks pretty thin…or is that just the green-eyed monster talking?
