   I am wanting to put a new engine in my car, i cant decide whether to go for VTR or VTS, I presume VTR will cost a hell of a lot less. Can some one give me a rough price for both? Including all the parts i would need.

   remember with vts conversion you will also need new rear axel, with good brakes all round, you will also need to plumb a fuel return line get a bigger rad then the 1.4 rad the 2 fan vts rad is good
   
   axel £150+ brakes disks all round £60+ ? plumbing fuel return prob £30+? if you cant do those by yourself the labour would be around £200+ theres £440 without the engine haha
