Welcome on board Stib

Can't wait to see this develop as, like TK says, a nice light shell with a punchy powerplant and proven grip will make a great combination. Are you doing anything to stiffen the old shell up mate? Just with any thirty year old shell, you're bound to get some structural weaknesses when you're trying to put over three times the normal power through it

Little update but nothing special as im gathering parts needed

Since the last post ive bought another shell for a test run >.<

But im gonna get it on the spit to see how good the shell really is, from what ive seen its very good apart from the diy sunroof lol but if i decide to use the shell it will have a carbon fiber roof..

other stuff ive bought
Have all new poly bushes for the rear end
Complete Rallye rear disk setup with drilled/grooved disks
All 3 props ready for modding 2x TT 1 x Rallye
Rallye Tunnel
1x TT front shaft, still need another!!!
VR6 hubs

Have the dutch build conversion plates for the haldex and prop flange

Todays purchase

Thats it for now
