  1. Yeah only bad thing about Christmas is going back work. Time to book some leave off and phase myself back in lol Club Chairman
  2. Also depends what is on the log book etc... If it's down as a vr6 on the log book and has had all the engineers reports etc.. Then it will be more saleable Club Chairman
  3. Wasn't me mines all tucked up Club Chairman
  4. Hey mate. Sold mine for 2.5k from memory, but was a full wide track obd2, coil overs, 2.9 wossner low comp pistons. Was a H plate and body shell was fairly tidy. Club Chairman
  5. Too much food.... Dieing Couldn't help steal the kids toys! So what did you all get?? Club Chairman
  6. Probably not but we are hoping to re stock sooon ! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. As many of our members regularly take part in drag racing and other motorsport events, I thought I'd create this section so we can post in. Contributions to this section to get it off the ground appreciated, so get posting
  8. hope everyone is now ready for Christmas! I'm just waiting for my Christmas shop to be delivered from asda (no chance am I going in there this time of year!) from me, and the rest of the VR6OC, Merry Christmas!!
  9. quick bump for an awesome turbo kit from stealth racing discuss!!
  10. I was going to suggest the oil cooler but united motorsport has already suggested it. it's not uncommon for it to go, it has coolant running through a chamber to cool the oil. the oil cooler is reasonably cheap to replace, also get the 2 seals also as they go hard after a while, but be careful replacing as the "crack" pipe is easily damaged that the hose from the oil cooler connect too..... so yes worth replacing and see how you get on, naturally you will need to flush fluids etc...
  11. all I am sensing from this topic is just don't get married and turbo the VR
  12. http://www.topgear.com/uk/car-news/first-drive-vw-golf-gti-concept-2013-11-23 awesome
  13. Good work mate. That miltek really sets the rear off nicely Club Chairman
  14. Would you mind making the PDF available? Club Chairman
  15. Sounds like an interesting project ! cabrioman aka TonyVRT on here may be able she's some light, or Paul parky as they both had syncros that required some fabrication. Club Chairman
  16. Sounds like a good formula that. Having a second car (daily) when our VR's are now knocking on abit is a win win situation. When you drive the daily, the VR feels like it's faster than the speed of light, but also takes out the stress fixing it up and not worrying about it having a flap and breaking down but more importantly your not spanking your money on petrol that could be put to better use fixing it up Club Chairman
  17. Sounds like it's something as a result of your work to me, what your best doing is getting a set of clocks (borrow them from a mate / someone local) to check if they function correctly. Probably easier doing that than troubleshooting your wiring at this point. However if you still get the issue then it's time to check your wiring Club Chairman
  18. My daily car is a 3 door punto and I've got 2 kids, had it for 5 years now and don't believe it to be too small so the golf will be fine, but suppose a passat 4 mo is still "keeping it in the family" as they say Club Chairman
  19. Would love see some regional meets being set up any volunteers? Club Chairman
  20. Yeah that is a very tidy install mate, I had to zoom in to check if it was turbo'd or not hats off to you. Club Chairman
  21. Congratulations on the pending marriage, I think the decision will depend on a few factors 1) time / money as you previously mentioned 2) is it worth buying another one if you have done a lot of work to yours? What I'm trying to say is that you could buy one and could have mechanical issues on your honeymoon with an "unknown" car, you'd never hear the last of it from the other half lol If the rest of your car is in good condition and you have a good base, converting to manual will make it more desirable. It has been done a few times, should be threads covering it on here I don't think
  22. Good stuff mate glad to hear you got it sorted ! Club Chairman
