My first VR6

[Golf-Sam]

This is the second purple one....

this baby needs some love !

[Defaultuser0520]

Yeah Im not sure this one will make it, I have plans for the other 2, possibly using the engine out of this one.....

[Golf-Sam]

sounds good .. looking to turbo charge ?

[Defaultuser0520]

No, I don't think so

[Golf-Sam]

just a thought .. imagine the power .. mmmmmmmmmm ..

[Defaultuser0520]

The power would be great, but don't have much spare cash, will be enough with 2x VR6 and a Kombi to do lol

[Golf-Sam]

haha you're not wrong there

[Defaultuser0520]

Gave it a bit of a wash today, still unsure whether to put the 17's on the back when I pick them up, or put the original 15's all round....Girls father said the 17's used to scrub a lot on the back??

[Stephy]

I have 17s and It's pretty low, no scrubbage happens with mine. Oh how i love your car, annnd you can make them go fast without the turbo

[Defaultuser0520]

The plan is to restore the red one with all the goodies and just keep it forever next to the Kombi, so will probably keep the best BBS on it, and put the 17's on the current one. Both I intend to fit both with all the good toys, just the red one will look more stock and restored (but hide some goodies in the engine, ps thanks for the help Steph)

Got a new delivery today



Plan is to take all the best parts of this and the purple one and put them into the grey car. Once completed would be looking to sell both the other 2 VR6's complete only, but hopefully a nice price.

Anyway, im off looking at the new toy

[Defaultuser0520]

And my first bonus find, and easy fit....

[Defaultuser0520]

So I pulled the exhaust out of the red car today, appears to be a "redline" system if they are any good?

Also noticed it has Spax lowered springs on Sachs shockies, so may take the time to put these into my grey car, as the red car seemed to sit lower when I had it delivered. Again, anyone got opinions on the quality of Spax springs, as the shocks can be changed with ease?

[Water Boy]

Redline exhuast and spax springs are common Uk/euro aftermarket performance parts.

They would be great improvments over stock stuff.

[Defaultuser0520]

Sweet, I know there are probably better products out there, but at this stage of my build just enjoying being able to steal improved parts from the other cars

Exhaust was easy, just hoping the springs wont cause me much trouble, better go buy some spring compressors :-p
