FMBWAWS - I feel my KR conversion won't even look 1% as good as this  |

 I like long walks, especially when they're taken by people I don't like. |

Pretty mental aint it. I love the way he trawls scrapyards for VAG parts. every hose, clip and connector!  Ok, there are a few slight deviations, but hey... |

I'll have to start doing this soon to source all the brake and exhaust bits I'll need.

Hot curse word the attention to detail - the attention to detail man!
This inspires me to stop bodging every last thing on the capri and get the engine out over the winter months.

Thanks for the offer - the only thing I might be interested in is the manifold as the studs are sheered off on mine (I've heard that I'd need a conversion manifold due to clearance though....true / false?). Here's a list of the bits I'll need: 256mm / 280mm front brake upgrade Bigger servo Down pipe Feed to airbox Gearbox (if the one from CC doesn't come through) |

I expect it can be done with standard parts and some 'alterations' though...  |
