on a slightly different note... are your rims 16s? if so what width are they n what size tyres you got on em, and what u lowered by. Do you have any probs rubbin etc?
Your ride looks proper sweet mate.
-

Just brought a secondhand passenger side headlight, as my vr came with a gti lamp on that side. So i got it a few days ago and thought, as im going to put it on i might aswell take the other vr lamp off and paint the insides [non-reflective parts] black, as i quite like the look.
Anyway, ill get to the point, just finshed, opening, painting and resealing....let them both dry and they looked great! Put them on, no problems, piece of cake, then i went to connect the loom to the back of the new lamp and guess what,... what a supprise, its a diffent f&&king plug!!!! ARRRRG.
So i guess either the plugs are different on new vr's [as mines a 1992] or possibly that its a cross over lamp, ie one that is on certain gti's? but look the same as the vr6.
Can anybody please tell me if i can just get a different loom or an adapter or something... as needless to say, i cant really be arsed to by another lamp and paint theat one and then be left with another painted one thats f&&king useless.
Any thoughts are greatly appreciated. thanks.

hi mate,welcome.... yeah as above, get it on the diagnostics and youll soon see whats wrong.
-
does your abs light come on when you start the car? cos if it doesnt then it means that the previous owner probably removed it to hide an abs problem.
-
anyone else have experience of these chips?
-
and i mean the ones manzi posted.
-
yeah i would be interested to know what people think of these... anyone else have any views??
-
depends how much you could get for it.... but although im a big vr fan, i would love a nice silver mk4 gti, remap to 220bhp, ik, drop it, bbs rs's etc etc.

a8's not my cuppa tea, borbets are sexy.... anything on the euro side i guess
-
i wonder if if went with the intention to try n 'joy ride' ur car, or he just lost control when he was out in it... who suggested that he go on his own?
-
really sorry to hear that, but as above ^ i would never let anybody i didnt know off in my car on there own. But i suppose these comments dont really help.

it can make it pop and splutter alot, which is quite cool, but its the volume for me thats the decider. Its just too loud with out the middle box.
-
400!!!! f@@k me, evo9 gotta be worth it tho, i guess.
-
i mate, yeah as far as i know it is yeah, but trust me it will make it alot louder and boomy and it will resonate alot when crusing at anything over 2.5 thousand revs... im looking the put the suitcase box back on mine as i brought the car with a full custom exhuast on [no suitcase] and its anoyingly loud. hope that helps
-
ok cheers
-
i swear the gti was the same as that... maybe it was bout 89 for 6 and 160 for 12, cant remember.
thanks anyway mate, thought it might be more
-
this is a bit random but but my vr6 before my current one was a gti conversion so i only payied gti tax and my new one was already taxed but it expires at the end of this month..... how much is it?? cheers
-
yeah good idea mate, hadnt thought of that... longlife arent near me but powerflow are, anybody else know of anygood exhaust places near milton keynes??? thanks
-
before this vr i had a mk3 gti with a vr6 engine, with a really loud exhuast and putting the suitcase box on made all the difference, so yeah i need to get under it and have a good look.
thanks for the help
-
oh right, didnt know that. forgot to say mines got a full custom edwards motorsport system, but it resonates and boom too much, so im trying to find some thing that will fit where the old 'suitcase' middle box was.
does anyone?

If you can you will get three imagenary gold stars, and there the big ones not the cheap rubbish ones.
thanks
