  1. Come on guys let's try and get 10 cars on the stand at least
  2. I must add the suspension on the mk3 vr and the corrado vr are the same as my coilovers came off a corrado
  3. Well the mk3 golf subframe is the same I think to the vr but I think wishbones and drive shaft lengths will be slightly different as the mk3 gti 16v and vr6 have a wider track. To do a 288mm (odb2) brake conversion you'd have to go 5 stud. Like I say the easiest way for me would be to get everything complete on the vr subframe and just bolt it all in to your shell. I'm not sure if the corrado subframe is the same. I'd imagine it is. I'm sure someone will jump in and say otherwise
  4. I'd say the easiest way to do your conversion would be to get the sub frame with the engine box front struts brakes etc still all in place and drop all your stuff off your wagon and just bolt the vr subframe in place
  5. It's easy enough to change from odb1 to odb2. I've got the ABV lump in mine and it's odb2 now
  6. Welcome along mate. Best get some pics of this Rado you have posted mate, it's like porn to the boss ^^^^ lol
  7. The vr6 badges aren't highline one but the vw badge in the boot is. Now there could be a simple explanation for that. They could of been stolen. Now I'm not totally sure on the door cards, I thought they were ribbed, I know the colour concept ones weren't obviously this ain't a colour concept as they were just in the GTI range. It still looks like a good fairly genuine and untouched base to start with

    Hello

    Welcome to the club mate. Get some pictures of your TT up
  9. Welcome along mate. You've came to the right place for your conversion. Are you planning to get a donor car?
  10. No bother mate. Let me know nearer the time then. It'd be good to wider range of VR's on the stand [emoji41]
  11. Do you fancy putting your car on the vr6oc club stand at the vw festival at harewood house in august?
  12. Ahh no there's a makem on here lol
  13. No problem mate your name has been added to the list
  14. Very nice mate. Welcome to the club
  15. I've got a spare 2.8 just sitting in my garage. It's got 140k on it. Head gasket went but had the head skimmed. It's already to go back together. The only reason I took it out was I got a 2.9 Rado engine so put that in instead
  16. If the clutch is goosed I'd expect the bite to be high and it'd more than likely be slipping. So I'd tend to lead towards the clutch needing bled
  17. Welcome back mate. What's the plans? Get a build thread going
  18. Welcome to the mad house mate. Get some pics posted mate
  19. Fuck me lol. I was speaking to a guy in the states a year or so ago and he was gonna get one for me with the hand brake gator and mounting bracket and ship it for $110
  20. Hi adam. I think you might be pushed to get a mk3 vr with under 100k on it mate. Have you tried ebay and gumtree?
