if Dave GA did it for around 8K with all the race/high end custom parts Im sure that you could do it cheaper. One of the Australian companies has a complete kit for 5K Australian dollars, from the pedals to the drive shaft.

Yep - same guy. You're right, he really built that motor and I think he initially had some issues with the clutch and rear handling all that power and getting it to the wheels. I haven't spoken with him in a while now - last time I saw him was at a local meet and he was still collecting parts at that time - then later saw some discussion on it over at the G8 board.
Didn't know about the Austrailian company offering a complete kit. That's tempting for either an A6 GT or an A6 GXP. Shoot me a PM with a link if you don't mind.
