TSR Peformance down Somerset sell these. £599 +£139 for fitting kit. And charge £220 to fit it. Details are on Club GTI about them' date=' they say they look good and offer a lifetime guarantee on em [/quote'] £220 to fit a diff thats a bargain that is for wot ive just had to do !!! not a diy job needed to drill out the old ring gear rivits then press them out, then torque the new bolts down then press the new bearing on ... could not hav done it wit my workshop lol how about pre load and all that shiz? Or is it just going back in as it came out, Agree about the £220 been a very good -

project get my vr into the 13secs at the pod
Phat VR6 replied to Dave Lea's topic in Members Rides and Event Photos
so your both running your engines in down the pod hahah fair play -
hahah you think like me. how did the diff go? was it hard to install?

Yeah really hard to find the parts dude. Over hear anyway. Over in Germany there are loads of syncro mk3. onces with small engines and drum brakes on the rear, think 1.8 8vs and diesels. So search german ebay for long enough and i hope you would be able to find one. Unsure about the rear floor pan. ive been told you can just remove the spare wheel recess. How true this is i don't know. Might be an idea to look into 4 motion rear axal as there's alot more about over hear, Might even be better for the job. Bound to be more work though but anything can be made to fit

boobs are brilliant but don't really need/ or bothered about seeing them every time someone posts. Think it would be abit harsh on female members if theres a silly amount of tits bouncing around when they come for a chat or some info help. Saying that im far from offended by it, Just seems abit pointless

You can feel the big ends to see if theres any play in them, All though if they where bad enough to feel you would hear it knocking really bad! Also inspect the oil pump pick up as mine got damaged from hitting speed bumps ect. Yep just drain oil unbolt clean surfaces and rebolt. Depending on the reason for replacing sump you could be interested in a product that i have in development. Its a kit to stop you damaging dragging your sump across the floor common with low VR6s. Kit includes Shallow increased capacity steel sump, New VAG mk5 R32 oil pump with a shorter pick up and a 5mm front en

Stretched tyres...... got any info?
Phat VR6 replied to kie_dub's topic in Wheels, Brakes, Suspension and Steering
Theres different amount of stretch, Mild like bens which wont be to bad, Then proper silly stretch which is defiantly nowhere near as safe as a proper sized trye. Handling will never be as good as the correct fitting tyre but the stance you can get with stretched tryes looks really good -
yer ive seen to many purple mk3s round brum too,

I want a dyno sheet lol, Whats 1 bar? 10 psi?

Try disconecting the MAF first see if it gets better, then check for spark Also try removing the backbox and work back. could be your exhaust is blocked

Hoe do you know if its engine mounts?
Phat VR6 replied to sparkyjr's topic in Engine Maintenance and Problems
put the handbrake on. Get someone to put it in first gear and lift the clutch up and down (like you would if your racing someone at traffic lights to make the front of your car go up and down if that makes sence) While there doing that look at your mounts to see if thats excessive movent and check them to see if there broken/ damaged As above if your gearbox one looks like that its shafted Hope that helps tom -
Or owns a black one :-d
