  1. Hello all Well I’m back, after a few years away from a VR6 (had to drive a Saxo, was a VTR so not all bad but still not a dub ha ha) I’ve gone a brought a R32, it’s a 2003 with 93k and full history, only a few mods 3sdm’s 18x8.5 in the front and 18x9.5 on the rear, AP coilovers and Scorpion exhaust rear section only. The wheels needs a clean up along with a couple of other things I’ll get sorted bit by bit. No really plans to do to much to it at the moment but we all know how easily that can change he he, buzzing to be back in a Golf
  2. Unfortunately, I've had to sell the vr as I'm moving back home and would never have finished it the time I've got left. Gutted I didn't finish it think it would've been a lot of fun.
  3. until

    Is there a VR6 O/C stand this year? I'm going up with a few pals from COV but would be good to meet some faces from here
  4. From my understanding a short runner intake doesn't give much bhp either on a N/A. If you want big bhp go turbo from what I've read over the years
  5. Depending on what else you've done you're probably looking at a max of 220/230 bhp. To get 250 bhp takes massive amounts of work there was a thread I read VWVortex http://forums.vwvortex.com/showthread.php?2616140 Read this if you want N/A tuning
  6. I seen that on YouTube a while ago, that's what made me want tb's. They sound the nuts, I could listen to that all day
  7. I've been looking at throttle bodies for the VR. Jenvey don't do a kit for the VR when I emailed them they put me on to Grant Motorsport but I've not heard the best things about him. If you want big bhp then go with a turbo or charger, with throttle bodies your looking around 20 bhp which isn't a massive gain but they will sound the nuts. BRC Automotive do a manifold for bike throttle bodies http://www.brcautomotive.co.uk/our-projects.html Bogg brothers haven't done a VR before (it was awhile ago I spoke to them so may have now) but said they could make a kit for bike tb http://www.boggbro
  8. Few more parts have arrived Sunroof blank Gonna take some time off work and try and put things back together again, working 60 hours a week come the weekend I've not got much enthusiasm plus the footy season is over so should have more time over the next couple of months
  9. This should help as to how many left https://www.howmanyleft.co.uk/?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=vr6+golf
  10. That things bleedin nuts!! I want one
  11. I don't think the car looks to bad to me just needs a bit tlc, looks like it's been fairly well maintained and it's low millage too. The price seems fair if the wings and sills etc come back in good nick but you've always got to get a few quid off

    MIVW

    A few friends are organising a trip to MIVW. Thought I'd share in case some of you are interested or maybe attending https://www.facebook.com/events/341850529348011/ Hoping I'll be there but it'll be close as to whether the VR's finished in time or not
  13. Sorry for the late reply been a mad weekend! Thanks for that should make things a bit easier, gives me a better idea anyway. Thanks
  14. I couldn't agree with more. Just out of interest how have you fitted yours? Did you bolt them in?
  15. Yeah they are, top fella really helpful and pretty quick too
  16. Oi oi. I got the Lexan windows delivered today Front window with sliders already fitted. These come with a locking system fitted Windows locked Windows unlocked Nice simple system but keeps people out hopefully and should save me a far bit of weight
  17. I'm not sure on the weight saving but should defiantly help save some and on the plus side no more rotten wings to worry about!!
  18. £150 a wing and £250 for the bonnet, it was something like that, I'll let you know when it get the paper work back. These are who's doing the work. http://iztechcomposites.com
  19. Few more parts delivered. I got my banded steelies back last week haven't opened them up yet Ordered fibre glass wings, bonnets and sunroof blanc which should be a few more weeks. Sold must of the interior, roll cage has gone and will be full stripped out soon. getting a collection of receipts now!!!
  20. I'm sure it was up for 13995 or 14995 but I could be wrong
  21. This has been for sale for a while, it's dropped in price a bit since I seen it on pistonheads
