As some of u know, im a full vee dubb enthusiast. I wish to do a Subaru EJ25 (wateva wateva) conversion for a beetle based buggy. And, i just thought it would be great if someone who is experienced and doing the conversion could document everything and make it into a published manual/book on how to do it. (Including the exact bits to use, so everything is easy and downhill)

Anyone interested in buying such a book if it were to come out in the future?

Anyone interested in writing or making it?

it would benefit us all, and wouldn't be such a gamble relying on all the info on the web sites without full instructions etc.

Its just a suggestion.;)

Whats his user name so i can U2U him. Unless anyone else can confirm it?

It would be such a convenience if he is.

To sell kits with everything to complete it, that is BLOODY AWESOME!!!

I am putting an EJ22 into our Bay bus at the moment using Brads gear and it is making the job so much easier. A bus has some differences to doing a beetle, but a lot of the parts are the same.

Keep your eyes peeled on this section of the forum and that is where you will learn.

In all honesty I believe it would take me longer to write a manual on how to do it than it would to actually do the job, hence why it would not be worth my while doing that.

Like the stretched limo I have just finished. I have been asked by quite a few people if I would publish plans on how to do it. It is not that easy for me, compared to the metalwork which is my specialty.

Sweet Helbus, sweet

yeah, im not pushing anybody to do it, just, it would be great.

I had visited custom offroad, i will probably pay em to do it.
