VR6Pete 1,456 Posted February 10, 2016 Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 wow - that's pretty rotten! unfortunately seems to be the norm when it comes to mk3 these days :( Fair play for sticking to it and getting it sorted Bealieboy 1 Link to post Share on other sites

arbroathautospar 15 Posted February 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 Alright mate aye I'm in Montrose what are you running? Link to post Share on other sites
arbroathautospar 15 Posted February 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 Aye that's not even half of it but I was so far in I couldn't stop so it's probably the dearest vr6 in Scotland but at least I know it's solid. Being on the east of Scotland doesn't do these cars any good but if it was a 94 ford from here it would be in a poly bag  Bealieboy and ky_uk 2 Link to post Share on other sites

bennyk 1,238 Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 Bloody hell, I thought mine was bad! Looks like I had it easy when it comes to rusty mk3's! Link to post Share on other sites
mattvr6 133 Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 My mk3 never had any rust or any tin worm issues was a 98 R plate a lot of u guys have rust issues it seems Link to post Share on other sites
arbroathautospar 15 Posted February 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 This is my second one but this one was bad think it all comes down to where they have been kept and looked after. That one was just a tbag but being in the motor trade took a lot of the cost out of doing it. Next step is engine and box out l&b flywheel stage 1 clutch and 6 branch. Also I have bought alloy rad silicone hoses new fans waterpump has anyone put a 50 mm alloy rad in one and mounted the fans behind the grille? the new fans are fairly slim Link to post Share on other sites
gaz205t 42 Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Cheers pal what are you running? Do you know of any breaking locally? Always looking for bits to improve it 2.9 would be nice at the right price supercharger kit. Any help much appreciated I'm running a 1994 Corrado VR6 that I have turbocharged. It's still an ongoing project, not finished yet. Was down at Crail on Sunday. Was far too busy though. Currently I'm not running any intercooler, but it's the next stage in the game. Car goes well at about .8 of a bar. You should check out my build thread. 94 boosted Rado http://www.vr6oc.com/forum/index.php?/topic/46258-94-boosted-Rado Not sure of any local breakers for what your looking for, sorry.
