Ive kinda moved away from the 2.7t idea mainly because of the whole thing with converting the quattro system. If you guys say the R32 motor is a fairly easy swap i have one which i can get for 4400 with 10 000 miles on it so I'm gonna look into this... I'm actually not sure if the car has a transmission or not I will call my dad later today and ask. I will keep you guys updated

 

You can get a 12V VR6 for about $1500 for a long block and maybe $2k-2500 for a 24V VR6. If you dont mind loosing the .4L, you can get and build the block up before installing it for less than just a stock 3.2. But if you have the funds for the 3.2, please do that.

 

you need more than the engine for the r32, you need the engine harness, computer,and tranny. 4400 for just a engine isnt bad but add around 2k for the transmission alone (i happen to have one in stock for 1500). doing the 12v is a good alternative, but you still need the r32 transmission, same with 24v.

 

Its been covered a few times on vortex. All you need is the bell housing from the R32, not the entire tranny.

 

thanks for everyones help im still lookin into if this is gonna happen or not and its looking good.. i havent found any vr6 motors but since i live right by germany im gonna check there
