Extending starter /batt cables
IbizaPartyBoy replied to dale p's topic in I.C.E, Security an Electrical
Starter and alternatir ones can all be made new as they're only short anyway.. -
Not sure what you are talking about tbh? but I used the standard vr6 shafts as they were, and changed to cups on the actual box to match them, they took all of 5mins to change, no seals involved that I done anyway
-
The cups are the bokt on type on the DZL box, so you can run 100mm or 108mm cups.. whichever match ur shafts. The starter has 1 hole that needs drilling out iirc if u keep the vr6 one, otherwise the v5 will do fine but u need the bolt then as its threaded I think.. been a whike since doing mine, but its pretty much identical.. would reccomend a diesel 5th though..

Mk3 vr6 highline front grill and highline badge
IbizaPartyBoy replied to muj33b's topic in Body Parts
Money sent.. messages sent.. no replies?? Any news please? -
Best advert ever?

The amount of time I looked for a flash red 2door vr... If I hadnt already got 2 VRs I wouldve been straight on this.. lovely car Glws
-
Must be the difference between early 280 setup and later 288 or something? I have gti arms on my VR now that I am building from ground up (came off my low milage 1998 colour concept) and they are identical.. (even compared to the old vr ones just incase)
-
As above, I was dubious about that amount of money on some pretty coloured poly/rubber under my car that I wont even see.. Now I wont be without them. Make a huge difference and give the old VRs a new car feel with tightness on the road. Same with engine mounts, vibratech ones compared to standard is just ridiculous.. but all worth it for a keeper car..
-
Didnt think vr6 and gti mk3 arms were different? Both are 5stud..
-
Will fit 4 cylinder VAG not 6 cylinder.

Mk3 Golf - Leon Brembo brake set-up
IbizaPartyBoy replied to korsou's topic in Brakes and Suspension
The 6mm spacers go between the actual hub and carrier. I packed mine out with 3 washers per bolt. You need longer bolts to gold the carriers as well (6mm longer than standard, just measure yours and get them off ebay) The spacers are needed for any mk4 based brake conversion onto a mk3 platform as far as I know. 323 cupra r discs and brembos fit perfectly behind TT comps. TT comps are et32 and 7 or 7.5j iirc.. I would show u pics of the spacers and where they go etc but my car is now a bare shell haha.. -
Mk3 Golf - Leon Brembo brake set-up
IbizaPartyBoy replied to korsou's topic in Brakes and Suspension
Think on the 280 ones you have to change hubs.. 288 hubs the later stuff all fits with just 6mm spacers or a few washers. posted in wrong section btw haha -
Heat gunned the wax off my bay and inner wings last week.. very satisfying but bored the life outta me. I'd say a heat gun and scraper for under seal possibly, but am leaving mine on and having an OEM ish type look under my car. Just colour coded.

His names Hotgolf (google him) Charges 73 quid for normal lightened one, or 99 for the lightest possible he alsi knows his stuff and will guide u what to do or how far to go depending on what route with engine you are going.

I payed 50 quid for a second hand one on here a while ago 5kg. Love it, loads of people said too light would make it harder to drive, its nade it smoother if anything. few will tell u to get it balanced WITH crank.. thats crap, cranks are balanced already, as long as the flywheel is balanced, then it will be fine. For the life of me I cant remember the name of rhe guy who does then for loads of people on the forums, 90 quid, u post to him and he posts back in that price. I mught have a message still on here will check.
