Tims Purple VR6

Also consider some of the non-dampening adjustable coils available, such as hottunings or JOM, you can get a set for under 500 au landed if you look hard enough

The ride is only harsh if you wind them to the bottom, and then start cutting the strut tops

Where should I be looking for $500 hottuning coilovers? $850 posted isn't too bad from evorobin, new. I'm easy with the ride quality, I don't care if it's not going to be the softest ride, I'd prefer the better handling.

The only bit of advice i have with modifying is dont skimp on parts, the most expensive way is the cheapest way Go coilovers because if you go a cup kit/sping shock combo, i guarantee you wont be 100% happy with its stance and then your stuck with it

I dunno alex, i prefer comfort over looks. Its all down to personal preference really. I reckon a cup kit 60/40 is low enough, its just the tards who wanna go lower they should get coils

I hope the vr works out well for u, it looked like a nice specimen and well maintained. Darn good price too!

Got my vwwatercooled.org.au sticker today, and if all goes well, should be driving the VR6 home tomorrow night

I've got a little bit of cash left over, so was thinking Sharan antenna ($30pp), and I'll probably look for the ipod cable that goes with the hu. Any other little things I should buy that are a vr6 must buy?

Power window motors and regulators

lol well as long as the front two are working then I'm happy, the driver's one just got changed for rwc, so hopefully it'll last a while.

Also, when should I get insurance? If I get it tomorrow arvo, will it be active for that night?

[MattyT]

Yes usually insurance cover begins immediately.

[AusScare]

Well the current owner wasn't able to get the rwc done by today, but he has the document to say that the engine bay needs a steam clean, and he's going to give me the money for this as well as for the rwc cost.

Can I still legally drive/insure this car if the rwc isn't done? Is the rwc just for transfer of ownership for the QLD Transport's records?

[Mk3 AAA]

Not sure about insurance, depends how/if the car is covered, but if it is still regoed I suppose you can drive it. But yes, RWC is only when transfering ownership, and he has a legal obligation to obtain one before the transfer.

I'll call up the insurance company, understandably I don't want to do something illegal and have anything bad happen. Plus, I don't want to get the car, then go get the rwc done, and find out I have to also pay some fee for rego transfer.

edit: AAMI says that as long as the car is registered then they can insure it, so that's good to hear, but my parents don't want to buy the car without all the documents in proper form, so looks like I'll have to wait.

Well the owner says he's just too busy to get the rwc done, so now my only option is to take it at $6,200 and get the rwc done myself, or get my bond refunded and go on my way.

Carsales ad says it's registered till June, so I assume that still stands, but this is getting annoying, first he's selling it with rwc, now without, what are the implications of this?
