My first attempt at posting a picture on this forum so apologies if its not worked.

I wanted to post a picture of my mates mini project using an Audi TT engine. Earlier project involved a Civic Type R engine complete with original dash board and subaru seats.

If anyones interested.

Went like nothing I've been in before! Sure I had oppurtunities to drive large, fast, powerful cars , but this scared the p*** out of me.

We were flying along a quite A road in Deepest Darkest Dorset doing about 80 in third, when he said...... We'll pick up some speed in a mo when it hits the powerband. :driving:

Sick bags at the ready! Then we slowed enough to take the 90 degree bend at about 50 to 60 by which time, I was praying to the lord almighty. :reaper:

Then anchored on the 2.2 Prelude Disc brakes and came to a stop on a 5 pence. :sick:

I needed councilling for a while after! And I now wet the bed occasionally :oops:

how much fun could you have with that...

One of my dads pals did this with a mini van about 10/15 years ago...

Engine didn't even have any air filters because the carbs sat in the footwell where the passenger should sit, Only place he could find to fit em... I shall try and get more info...

I had the "pleasure" of being a passanger in a GSXR1100 powered mini a few years back. It was pretty much standard apart from that, so lots of go, and no brakes. Never again.
