DaveMcleod 0 Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 Hi guys this is my MK3 Colour Concept VR6 conversion threadJust starting the conversion and searching for information via google that brought me to this website and its helped me out alot with finding the right VR6 for me I am picking up my donor VR6 on friday and going to start the conversion within the month, Its coming from a 5DR VR6 highline OBD2 system so have all the nice additionals for my concept Payday this month buying the engine Manifold and Decat Next month will see the engine being thrown in and car hopefully taken to get a Cat back exhaust system fitted, keeping my backbox (janspeed) as i like the subtle style Its to get rid of the silencer between it and the De-cat Anyways some of you have seen how it was when i got it in my welcome post but here she is again Looks low at the back because rear shocks were buggered and i had half the house in the boot lolcouple weeks later I installed a lowering Kit (springs + dampers) and painted the front grill that I am unsure about either going to paint the other 2 red grills black or look into a badgeless grillThen i ripped apart the dash board to get ready for the new ECU loom + Aircon boxes ect Link to post Share on other sites
