ky_uk 304 Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 (edited) Hi guys, I have just finished stripping my engine bare down to the block and i am looking at replacing as much as i can I am literally only going to use the block, head, crank, but the only good site i can find is https://vr6parts.com/ that is Shimmel performance its in America and its quite expensive, does anyone know a VR6 specialist performance parts in Europe ? At least I could save on shipping a little HA HA! Also found this site in http://www.bar-tek-tuning.com/Motoren+Teile+vw+audi/VR6/index.htm but they don't have the reputation that Shimmel does. But if there is one in the UK that people know about that would be a winner!!!! Edited September 16, 2015 by ky_uk Link to post Share on other sites
Neil20vtc 44 Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 I bought some of my turbo bits from bar tek worked out cheaper than uk due to the pound being strong compared to the euro also don't have to pay any import duty as its within the eu, took a wee while to turn up but that was to do with them waiting on a few of the items coming from the U.S. ky_uk 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Neil20vtc 44 Posted September 17, 2015 Report Share Posted September 17, 2015 Most of the bits I got were branded ie peloquin diff arp head bolts so knew they would be ok,the oil cooler kit I got isn't though and seems good quality looks almost identical to the mocal ones I've seen people use Link to post Share on other sites
