  1. Hi all looking at getting my bay to look awesome, could anyone let me know which FPR i should get and what type (rising rate?) and where it is mounted? also looking at an oil catch can and ABD big bore intake, any reviews, thoughts or comments on those products. im building a 3L vr6, using bmw pistons. blueprint bottom end, lightened flywheel and acl race bearings, going along with a mk4 HG to up comp and ported head, match ported to manifolds and 268 road cams, running on a local chip supplier. thanks gents.
  2. really awesome build mate, well worth the read...!!! keep up the good work!
  3. i need the international part number for this: http://www.mjmautohaus.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=2_7_22_56_381_1790&info=OEM_VAG_021198012A.MK4_Head_Gasket_Set_with_MK4_H/G_Early_VR6_OEM&products_id=1419 Head Gasket Set with MK4 H/G, Early VR6 (OEM) inclsuding shipping and the gasket set it $270 to me, that is WAY tooo much for a Head gasket, has someone got in the UK that i can buy? i know shipping will be much cheaper. thanks
  4. once you unplug the maf and start it up you will have to clear the error code but nothing to worry about, see if the MAF thing works
  5. really strange thing happened with my buddy's one as well, did the same: back fired, acceleration was poor the blue plug in your thermo housing, take it out and clean it/replace it, 99.9% chance it will be the culprit.. have you checked: tears in the TB pipe? that the MAF, Lambda is plugged in correctly? taken the TPS out and checked if the "trigger" is broken? Also would help if you can get it VAGCOM'd a vr6 is a bit worse than a woman, you never know whats wrong until you try and do everything else to make her right lol
  6. 20/2/2012 had a good weekend, got in contact with my old white vr6 again and had to sort out some stuff for him and instead of cash we came to an agreement with a rim swop on the cards...Racing Hart Concepts - its like if an eagle and bbs rs would have a baby this would be the retarded offspring lol , need to get centre caps again as they stole it off while in his possession redone the outer cv's and no more wobble bobble kak on the long road, the car still feels "no right" getting the old Ian Glass shortened shocks this weekend coming and will be doing the front and rear brakes over as it
  7. very happy to see that response, keep me updated would like to know exactly who the culprit is...

  10. the two box system is shyte, going to have the one box removed soon (middle box) for that nice deep vr sound. need to take my time with this one as the cash flow is not what it was before with buying a house..... got some plans but for now sorting the small bits and bobs out.
