  1. if the cameras were facing you then u should be ok. i've seen a lot in east london and thinkk they are basically checking on the car for anything dodgy and there normally is police futher up waiting
  2. i dont think the engine that you're on about is out yet, but i have heard about so you haven't been dreaming. there's been talk about it on the audi-sport.net site.
  3. the s3 is a 4 cylinder 1.8t engine. i have a s3 but dont think the 1.8t is as much fun as the vr
  4. my mate has the the v6 4motion engine in his mk1 cabriolet
  5. grant motorsport can also do the conversion. they've already put a 24v engine into a vento.
  6. i'll be there and hope i get a slot on the rollers as im a reserve at the moment
  7. depends on how much u wanna spend
  8. everything and anything to a naturally aspirated, forged pistons, big valve head, fully lightened and balanced, cams, baffled sump, oil pump, helix clutch, final drive, lsd, 6 branch, etc
  9. where abouts in essex are you, as i got my braided hoses from abbey hoses in barking. i got a 2m length and also got them to crimp clips onto the end of the hoses all for a tenner. i should have pics of the hoses on my engine if you want me to mail them to you.

  10. before i transplanted the vr6 into my mk2 it was an auto. i removed the auto box together with everything related to it(ecu, torque converter, selector, etc). apart from the manual box you're gonna need a clutch, flywheel, selector, clutch master and slave cylinder and clutch pedal. i also had to bridge 2 wires at the fuse box end(black connector with 2 red wires) which were connected to the auto gear selector. if not bridged the car wont start as it will be thinking its in either p, r, d. good luck [ Edited Tue Jul 27 2004, 10:02AM ]
  11. everyone is going forced induction these days either turo or supercharged so i thought i'd stick with naturally aspirated. i should hopefully get my car back next week.
  12. i wont be going to mania this year as im busy with work this weekend plus i still aint got my car back. grant deals with a lot of 24v engines too and he said that he could get around 400-450 bhp out of them but i guess they are race spec. still sounds good for a naturally aspirated engine. you can ring him on 07967 914362 and tell him i gave you his number.
  13. if you're asking about my car then you're best asking grant at grant motrsport as he still has my car and while he was doing my engine i kept adding more to the spec. let me know and i'll give you his number. as for seeing my car i haven't even seen it since 2 days before inters. there are some pics of the new engine that i had on the westside site. in case you're confused i had an engine built for this year and 2 days before inters i hit the sump on the motorway and now it's getting done all over again.
  14. cheers and just to let you know it's hiten(not hinten).
  15. could you put me down as a reserve if anyone drops out
  16. september for me as i need time to run my engine in
  17. you're better off getting a re-build if u can afford it. if you get another used engine it might be worse than the one you already have.
  18. a 3.6 final drive sounds good to me. il look into a bit more. il be needing top speed when travelling to the europeon vw shows. quite a few of the westside cars are 20vt and i need to show them that the vr's rule. cheers
  19. i've got a new naturally aspirated 3.0/3.1 engine. i'm gonna keep the car so i ended up doing everything to it, cams, big valve head, fully lightened and balanced bottom end, forged pistons, 6 branch, lightened flywheel, unorthodox pulleys, helix clutch, etc. i had my car ready for inters with my new engine and 2 days before my sump hit something on the motorway causing it to run dry and cause damage. it had only done 700 miles and ended up having to re-build it again. grant motorsport has done all the work. there are pic's of the engine on www.westsidevw.co.uk [ Edited Fri Jul 16 2004, 02
  20. it's the gearbox that governs the speed. once my engine is run im gonna get it re-mapped and might have the rev limiter increased by 750 rpm if i need to get my top speed back. any used 6 speed boxes for sale?
  21. Im getting a lsd fitted to my gearbox but might get a final drive fitted in at the same time. Im in two minds whether to get the final drive as i know i'll get better acceleration but then at the same time im gonna loose around 15 mph of my top speed. Only way around would be to get a 6 speed but that's another story. Has anyone had a final drive fitted?
  22. you're gonna miss the vee dub scene mate. just make sure i dont run into
