My "Murdered" VR6

[GoLfMan]

Can you post some pic's of the chev pickup?

back at page 8 mate... Or somewhere around there

I dont wish to alarm anyone, but despite claims to the contrary I may be staying in this scene that I was kind of not really in anyway.....she may be off the market.

Car has some potential

Guess I wont be rolling on those sexy wheels then though

Check the spotted thread mate, you'll see a piuc of your car.

I saw it parked on the side of the road in rosebud over the weekend.

I was all set to sell it (all be it at way under what it owes me) went to get a roadworthy and there was annoying stuff that had to be done - just couldn't justify spending more when I was selling cheap anyway. Then I ran into complications with the chev as a daily driver and decided screw it I'm going to have to keep it.

Meanwhile, I got a set of smoked hella indicators in the mail that I ordered from germany forever ago and I think if I'm keeping it I might paint it if I can as well!
Then its a matter of praying it will make the trip to qld without breaking down. Everything is working great right now - lets hope it stays that way for awhile!

Lots has happened since I posted on this! Tried to sell the golf but ran into rwc issues and nobody wanted to buy it at the price i wanted cause of the paint (which Ive always admitted was terrible!) Ended up selling my pickup to a guy in brisbane (gutted) and flying down to Melbourne and driving the golf up to the gold coast! Here's a pic of it as I left!

It performed unbelievably well and didn't miss a beat the whole time! Although I did almost lose the racks as they apparenty weren't tight enough! Luckily had the thule tool in the car so it was all good!
So yeah now i have the car up here, its matte black and consensus is it looks ****ty, and it has no air con so its going to be hot this summer! My friend who i left the car with sold my wheels as well! And pricey adapters from adaptec! He was trying to help me out but now I have no wheels either! So looks like i'm going to have to start again! Stay tuned!

buy them back, i read that they are up for sale again as the new owner went with a different setup .

good to hear the VR made the trip without drama

I only saw this car for sale just last week. I am the guy who messaged you the other day.

Looks like a sweet car, too bad i missed out.

[Mr V]

Well they actually are up for sale if u are interested. Check the parts for sale section. Bought them then changed my mind *doh*. Good to hear you made it up there ok! Sorry to hear about the pickup :/

Wheels you went with look good! Are you running the adapters? Very tidy car man!

[dark]

Did the easiest mod I have ever done on this car! Installed tinted hella indicators and dummy fogs. Literally plug and play!

Anyone know where i can score this bit of plastic?

I am going to try and get my dirty black vr6 looking clean!

Thanks mate! Yeah running the adapters. Could have gone and bought spacers and longer bolts but couldn't be bothered when I had these.

Wheel refurb started today, started taking apart the wheels, lotssssss of bolts. I was going to replace but they are actually in pretty good condition aside from some oxidisation - question is will the powdercoater tell me to **** myself if I ask him to powder coat each bolt head!!
Also debating tyres again! The falkens I got last time were rad on 8 inch 17's and I can get more....but I have some 7's up front now, what tyre can i stretch on these! Even the tyre stretch site isn't being overly helpful - anyone got some suggestions?
