Preen, if you can track down the parts let me know. I need one of these setups for my 16v, was just thinking about it today actually another thing I needed to look into

A lot of the time i can't find what i want with google. Or any of the search engines. I'm not up on how to type it all in to give more specific results.

Haha, yeah i thought that. It's kinda like looking up John Smith..

I'm not sure what to do yet.

The setup in the pics looks nice with the adjusting bar on the alternator.

But as loon said you can get the bracket with the bar with tensioner pulley built in, like on most mk3s, but the diesel equivalent which has a lower alternator mount and the tensioner is set about 50 degrees further round to account for this.

I know this came on AAZ and 1Z mk3 golfs (ive seen the one on aydans car), but obviously theres not many in Oz.

[mollins]

Either of these will work!!

i just need to find one

[Peter Jones]

We should move this thread up in the performance section so it doesn't expire.

There's a lot of good info in here.

Mods?
