Funny you should say about a diesel conversion, might be the way forward dumping a oil buring lump into a RSi out of a Diesel van The funnest conversion I have seen (sorry if your the owner) was a cabby converted to a diesel with a S1 body kit with all the bits, classic!! Looks of a ERST with the performance of a tractor!!! class.

Yeah and you know what they say about powers rollers dont you, if that was your last rolling road then amend that figure NOW as the actuator coming in early and thats the drop in power.

AMEND THE SIG NOW!
