If you're going to all that trouble then a gpx transplant is the way to go.

Alternatively find my old fto which is the same colour as yours but is a gpx!

ah i been down that road before with a colt, never thought of putting one into an FTO though ha ha.
its not that im looking to do a conversion its just i found a GR engine for 120euro and for an extra 50 odd BHP i thought it might be worth it, if i could keep my gearbox and all.

instead of doing anything fancy, i'd rather wait until the summer to buy a proper GPX Mivec FTO. Its Mivec i really want :wink:
