i will try to get some pics posted tomorrow yes it was difficult bc of where the turbo sits i had to lower the crossmember and grind some material off the down pipe to clear the steering shaft and the wiring was kinda difficult and i made custom transmission mounts for the t5 and the motor mounts i had to make. I machined the driveshaft to bolt up to the r200 rearend and had to have the t5 yoke welded on it. i know it was alot of work but i got the chassi and motor super cheap so i decided to make it work
