ad24gti 0 Posted July 31, 2010 Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 May aswell start a thread, Started of with a 5 door Gti when i joined here a long time agoSince then i have owned 4 mk3's including 1 vr and 1 cabby so this is the second attempt at a vr6 after my last one went bang and i got annoyed and broke it.... Possibly the worst thing i have done. Anyway i tried the Integra Type R before getting back in a VW so had to choose the right car after that Seller's Picture So bought this recently for sale on here, Mk3 VR6 88K Climatronic Recaro's the lot!! Had a go at polishing the wheels but they just wasn't working for me Car came with a Lupo wheel so fitted that... either getting old or prefer the normal steering wheels rather than the momo's Then got the wheels in my home made paint booth After a few coat's of satin black they will do for now Also fitted coilover's but got sent the wrong one's as you can see below, that was the highest setting Then the correct one's arrived and 30mins later the backs were done Then it was time for wheels, i wanted something diffrent that hadn't been done on a mk3 before So they were purchased ET15 17-8 and BMW fittment, But decided not to use them, so there up for sale My plan was to get them redrilled and fit them Fitted and painted a Grommet as the wiper didn't work Also fitted a Vibra technic's mount, The black mount is a Integra Gearbox mount thats for sale Done a few other bit's like tyre's and splitters, Window mech but you know thats maintence stuff Thanks for reading will update when i can Link to post Share on other sites
