98sikdimelaynbod · 11-07-2009, 10:38 PM

ßɭĬƮƵ · 11-07-2009, 10:41 PM

KENNYMO · 11-07-2009, 10:50 PM

oh thats large. so what would i need to swap out? just the motor? get some different motor mounts or something?

ßɭĬƮƵ · 11-07-2009, 10:52 PM

ahh you have the older one...

KENNYMO · 11-07-2009, 10:53 PM

iz you figure out how to use paypal yet?

ßɭĬƮƵ · 11-07-2009, 11:03 PM

Kenny you would have to figure out if the mounts are the same. if the tranny will "bolt" up. and if it all does go together... beef up all the parts.

if you want something faster without doing a whole bunch of mods, just get the new rs4 engine.
