I know the obvious differences like size etc but could I use the engine from a manual RR in my auto without any major problems???
Thanks

So essentially they are the same but the ancillaries are different when it comes to the way the boxes are mounted.
Think I can cope with that, time to find something bigger to replace my 3.5 then!!!
Thanks

its a 1985 manual with just over 27K on the clock now (genuine)
looks like that's the next step in my project after the house then, good idea with the changing of parts. cheers.
I was thinking along the lines of building a track style car based on a V8. Get a rover block nicely tuned on carbs then just swap it between the track car and the landy....summer is track car winter is landy.....yes i am weird lol

it would be allot of effort to swap it every year but i do like projects.
why the GTI6, i had a 306 meridan when i was younger and thought it had nice handling, pedals where perfect for heal and toe (i think so)
insurance aswell, i say track car but then i would like it road legal and buzz about in the summer at some stupid time in the morning (yer i know naughty),
cost to fix is an aspet aswell
i got 2 mates with dc5's and a couple with dc2's. i could pick one of those up for 2500 (crapper though) but how much is it going to cost when i inevitably hit the wall or tree, do the engine in or anything else, it would cost me allot more to fix a honda. any specialise performance parts wouldnt need to be shipped in ( the american after market parts are just ****e so gotta be jap).
so thus a gti, i would really love to do lotus 7 style, avon or alike but at the end of the day your still looking at £6K+, just want some thing i can hammer,
i went the land rover root to try and bypass my lust for speed and reving but it still there in the background and my 1.4 megane just isnt worth considering lol
a well setup gti6 can rinse some low end porsche and even type'r's are in the ya mirrors.
lol the scooby, surely after 2 laps turbo is dead and most of the back wheels arnt inline with the front lol
anyway soz for the hijack.

Coming in your ears.
Looks like you got it worked out!
I came from Honda to land rover to try to save money, and look what happened!
However the disco is pretty much all told for 7k, my ep3 could have absorbed 15k in a blink.
Yes you're right about repairing the Honda if you binned it. Have you seen the price of ep3s recently though?!
Problem with Hondas is that the engines last forever but the bodyshell won't!
K20 mgtf? Now there's a thought!
Ok bag of **** but you cannot deny they drive well.
Plenty about with popped motors, get a binned ep3, 3k, 250bhp and it's a soft top
