Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    matey VR6's are always well under $10k, careful though they are quite a money pit.

    maybe stretch the budget another couple of k and grab a mk4 GTI

      Cheers mate.


      Yeah its for a Chef at work... bit wary of the VR6 money pit, hence the minimal mods request. I think he will be having a bit of look on car sales but if anyone knows of a quality vehicle up for sale that is even on carsales just let us know.

      Thanks again.

            Consider the Bora 4motion...best of both worlds (minus the 6cyl rego bollocks... VR6 = 4.8L Patrol hmmmm).
            Ha well mine cost me $5k in <6 months. Just sayin'.
