Re: RS3 engine in a mk3
True - but I admire the technical input required to get these things working. I saw a post about a guy who stuck a GTi engine into his lotus chassis without all the usual bits (cluster etc). Seems nobody told him it was supposedly close to impossible, so he just did it himself.

Sounds like the trolls in 40K who can breath in space, because nobody told them they can't
