Imagine the wheel spin without an AWD conversion that thing wont move ..

And also if it's a V6 Porsche engine then it's from the cayenne/panamera and I'm 90% sure that that's almost identical to the passat r36 engine which is similar to the R32 engine which means it's almost been done before wow I just confused myself

negative.......... The porsche V6 is a actual 'V' shape (90 or 60 degrees.... one of those) not 15 degrees like the R32/36 motors. Which is why it looks like such a tight fit compared to the VR family engines. Therefore would not have been done in large numbers before!

I mean why would you, it produces the same power as the R36 engine (within a few kw's), and the R36 should fit easier and is designed for a transverse mounting. I guess he did it to say he had a Porsche engine in it?!

haha thanks for correcting me haha and id say so... but with how much it would've cost he probably could have put in an R32 and made it way faster haha

Ah, you serious?! Do you know what they are/if I could get replicas or something? I'd so love a Set for my dub (when I get it in 3 months ), otherwise I'm thinking of changing my brakes to a 5 stud pattern and slamming it on a set of 18" rs4 rims haha. Lots of work but I'm willing to pay to get it done!

I'm pretty sure they still make them in 5x100 so if you change to that you can still get them, and those particular wheels are Rotiform NUE

[Ben J]

Theyre rotiform NUE indeed. They're beautiful. They were high on my list of wheel choices too. They make them in 4x100 and 5x100, 17x8 with a choice of 20 or 30 offset. Decently priced too. With 185/35 rubber they're pretty damn dope
