    Imitations just don't stick!! I'd rather pick up a 2nd hand R36 and not have to start messing around with the engine but that's my 2cents !

    Agreed. Just want to up my handling to the r36 standard. No point spending money on the engine to increase 0-100 by 1 sec. Does not work in morning freeway traffic crawls.

    any reason in particular you want to make it an r36?
    not saying theres anything wrong with the r36 (i love them) just saying why not have a different passat with different wheels and different suspension, do little things like removing badges etc. make your own style

    Not so much of wanting to be a a r36 in looks or performance. More interested in the handling and suspension setting. The 3.2 v6 can stand on its own in terms of performance. Fancy the r36 seats but I think it is not worth selling what I have for those.
