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,

      Not sure mate, the Green one is owned by G60JAY also though, it's an SLC (American with 2.8l VR6). He's also got one with AWD that was going to have a 24VT in it, not sure if it ever got finished.

      They're the only VR's i know of in Australia

        Carl there was one that wasn't registered I think came from Japan. Pretty sure Pete Shelley went to see it and made the guy an offer that wasn't accepted? Loon may remember/have seen it too.

        The funny thing was the seller claimed it was owned by Jamiroquai

              I don't think it was from Japan, not sure, but yeah it was a LHD. Jay converted it to RHD and had it on the road. Saw him in 2009 i think, he still had it on the road then. Johnny's G60 was also Jay's.

                If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.

                      Last week a guy in Hamilton sold a VR6 to another bloke in Warwick. It was a dark coloured one, I believe. I know this from the bloke who did the safety certificate on it.
