VW Corrado with R32 conversion

I came across this and thought it was one of the craziest hybrid conversions I have ever seen http://forums.thecarlounge.net/zerothread?id=2160306. It is really interesting that someone could actually do this so I thought I would share this with everyone. Enjoy.

I wonder how much that conversion costs. I still think the modern looking R32 would have looked better.

In the thread the guy said he purchased a salvaged R32 (ended up getting another block on top of the salvaged R32) with all the aftermarket parts I can imagine it probably cost him at least 25Gs for all the stuff he put in it.

I wonder how much the Corrado weighs? The R32 is pretty heavy isn't it?

That's crazy. I love the Corrado. I think it's the coolest looking car VW ever made.

the guy said he could buy a well equipped R32 for the amount of money he is putting into this but he is shooting for 600+ hp so it should be badass. i have been following this project for a while.
