The turbo won't be low mount (I was just messin about). I'm gonna try and
cut off the runners at the head flange, spin it around and re-weld it :roll:
Hopefully it won't crack :x
Has anyone tried to do that????

Update:
Vr4 brakes are canned!
Reason being that the arm to attach to the steering sits too high(Can't believe i didn't notice earlier :x ) So anyway i ordered these and am going to continue on a slightly different path. STAY TUNED :beer
