hi claus. do you have a father called santa?

what you need is a lot of money

what cossie engine do you have? it's easier to use a 4x4 exhaust manifold.

something will need to be done with the sump or engine mounting crossmember - i would mount engine to chassis rails and have a cossie 2wd alloy sump modified to clear the crossmember and have 'big wings' added at the same time for extra oil capacity and to prevent oil starvation in corners

if you're also going to use the 2wd cossie gearbox, t5, you will need a bigger transmission tunnel. you have the option of welding in one from an automatic model, or an aftermarket one or modifying your existing one.

something to operate the clutch - many people have converted to a hydraulic release bearing

you will need a propshaft manufacturing

uprated front brakes and suspension

uprated rear brakes, axle and suspension

fuel system uprated to include fuel pump etc needed for fuel injection

uprated radiator and somewhere to mount the intercooler (i suggest an rs500 style i/c in the front of the car, and the radiator in the boot for a laugh ofr which you may need to uprate the water pump or fit a secondary electrc helper pump)

plenty more things, but that should keep you busy for a little while.
