ok thats all simplified everything for me, thanks alot man seriously.. i would have never even attempted this if it wasnt for you.
in that case in about 2-3 months once i have saved about £2-3,000 im gona go for it and make a start.
for now im going to try hunt around and do some diginng around, to see if i can find any more info regarding suitable axels if not itl be trial an error when i get the engine and tranny.
between now and then im just gona read up as much as i can regarding engine swaps..
from what ive read as well the 1.6 vxr gives out a nice 189 or 204 bhp spec depending on the model.
juuust outa curiosity.. wouldnt i need to strengthen anything.. seeing as thats almost double if not more bhp ....
