To get the drive shafts to work you need golf mk1 gti outer cv joint and in my case golf mk5 gti inner cv joints.Then im having made next month some custom shafts to suit.you could chop the mk1 and mk5 drive shafs and weld them together but im not going down that route.

Well at last ive got my Audi A8 winter alloys they are in good condition apart from some lacquer peel will be getting them refurbed once ive got the right adaptor for them.Im so glad i waited for some to come up for the right price i would have paid 6xmore that i paid for these lol.

Mike i am so glad you found them and will forever feel guilty that i had to sell the ones i had, but needs must to get me in the sportline. They are gona look Sick when fitted :-)

As said before rich dont worry about it.Hope your back gets better mate.Also do you know what make adaptors you had as ive seen a few.

agghhh how annoying just been searching for like 20 mins and cant find the for sale thread for the 1st set i bought as that was the only ones that had the adapters, i think he got them from the states mate

Yes m8 the mounts will be a straight swap over from the 6 speed box i took off.Ive was that keen tonight ive taken engine out and taken the box off.so will paint the new gearbox and refit it the weekend.

cant wait to see this finished mate and the think your only up the road from me. all the best dude

Well ive painted and fitted the gearbox and transfer box now.Im now going to work on the back end its a real shame to chop up all that work ive done underneath.I will now start on making the mounts to fit the rear syncro beam.and then i need to get a s3 8p diff.

looking forward to more updates on this

Started to cut out the spare wheel well and cross member.So i can fit the rear beam i have also started to make some new rear hanger mounts will post up pics in a few days.i also picked up a forge uprated diverter vavle.
