  1. Hi dubvr691! This is not what I am looking for, I am suspecting that I have a play in my wrist pins (I have a knock) and I want to measure them, what I am looking for is this:
    Dimension for the small end of the conrod
    Dimension for the big end of the conrod
    Dimension of the piston wrist pin
    And big end center to small end center on the conrod itself

    If that's not it then.im not sure, maybe try Google for dimensions
  2. Iv got a supercharged vr6 in a 3 door mk2 gti, it's been sat for a while without a clutch slave cylinder and faulty crank shaft sensor had clutch flywheel & alternator changed & referb few months ago but iv no license n can't ever get it insured n been thinking about letting it go, based in Blackburn, lancashire

    There's the parts list and pic of conversation, looking for the pics I'd taken at the time of building but not found them just yet, will get em to you if or when.i do find em, yeah the parts are relatively interchangeable, but most of my enforcement support fabrications were done just to be on the safe side since it's supercharged & didn't wana run any risks of warping the chassis

  4. Anchor points, where subfame fasteners go through, we just welded in steel plates with threaded holes for the bolts, also would highly recommend to strut brace the top of the suspension mounts front and back, and if you're driving hard then stiffer sway bars but standard mk3 ones are good enough for street n fast rd speeds, last thing you want is to twist the mk2 chassis with the vr6 so I was told

  5. Easiest way would be to get a mk3 subfame, with all the mounts and it should slot right in, maybe few cut & shuts inside the engine bay, as for mk2 shell would be best to reinforce n sort out before transplant, I've done the same conversion myself but tore the engine off the frame since it's supercharged & want properly reinforced to the chassis, had to rebuild anchor points, will tryn get you some pics tomorrow at some point, and the parts paperwork listed, best of luck with your project

  6. Even after working 9-5 & sleepless night I find myself being comforted by conflicts of interest, managed to get it right until brothers hand came along, not that I don't appreciate his time and effort knowing my situations. His hands just arnt good for me 1496521265357.jpeg1496521341460.jpeg1496521415899.jpeg1496521464993.jpeg

     

     

    Got the alternator in fine but the supercharger has tilted somewhat and the whole engine has moved over to the frame n is concerningly wrong

  7. I bedded my clutch in when it was N/A so didn't have that problem
     
    But yes you need get a good few miles on it before you give it a good blast .

    Hmm, before I can do that I need to get my alternator checked out so it seems, iv never taken my supercharger off or the belt and wernt around when it was fitted, can't seem to see the belt tensioner? Is there any links or somewhere that shows the removal steps

  8. I run a Valeo clutch, few people rate them better than sachs 
     
    Supercharged VR6 @ 294BHP and do take it down strip now and then, has held up fine so far ! 

    Cool thanks, how long does it take to properly bed the clutch in? Mine atm wasn't properly bled out so wasn't gripping whole n I kinda might have burned n glazed the clutch off
  9. Gonna need to change the clutch again since iv glazed and kinda broken the organic new one that was recently fitted, what clutch could you recommend to be used as a daily driver occasional racer?
