  1. i love modern warfare 2, i play it most evenings my gamer tag is killaB187stylee
  2. just seen this on ebay might be a good buy for someone !! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Rotrex-Supercharger_W0QQitemZ320445337580QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item4a9c07cfec
  3. im pretty sure that i would have a carlton gsi if i didnt have my vr6 !!
  4. i would love to r32 my vr6, and for the same price of a supercharger !! it seems like a reasonable thing considering you have a 25bhp stock engine which you can later supercharge ! ummmm supercharged r32 mk3 my mind starts wondering.............................
  5. i put a 2.9 inlet manifold on my obd1 but i fitted a 6 branch and de-cat pipe at the same time, i can notice the difference it revs out a lot quicker. there is a tread on here which shows you the differences between the 2.8 and 2.9 manifolds !
  6. ive got the same problem mate !! everytime i plant my foot down it will make a loud knock, i thought it was cos i put on a solid front engine mount but then i realised that my gearbox mount was shagged so i replaced it but i still got the knock so im gonna change the other rear mount next week and hopefully that will sort it !
  7. cheers mate thats what i thought, but cos mine is a obd1 i also have a pipe on the out side of the bend will i have to keep that connected ?
  8. hey guys i have got a load of polished alloy pipe so i thought i would make my own bonrath kit and fit my oil catch tank ! my vr6 is an obd1 and to fit the catch tank im pretty sure that the pipe from the rocker cover goes to the catch tank and then i block off the hole in ther air inlet where the pipe from the rocker used to go ?! is this how it fits on i want to make sure befor i start playing with things !!
  9. well yesterday i fitted my 6 branch manifold, corrado inlet manifold and solid front engine mount, i can notice the difference between 3000 and redline it feels more powerfull and smoother through the revs. the only difference i can feel with the solid engine mount is that when i change down gears at speed it feels a little bit harsh but all in all im happy with the difference ! now i have gotta fit an oil catch tank and a powerboost valve, the boost valve has got a pressure gauge on it so should i set the boost valve pressure to the same as the FPR ?? cheers guys
  10. sweet cos i fitted the 6 branch without it but i thought i would double check ! i also snapped off 4 exhaust studs but ive got a stud extractor so i managed to get them out but i gotta get some studs tomorrow morning.
  11. hi all today i put my new 6 branch manifold on but do you have to put that little copper pipe thing shaped like an M onto the 6 branch and is it best to put the heat shield back on even if i have wrapped the 6 branch with exhaust wrap ? also i have got a corrado inlet manifold to fit but 1 of the allen-key bolts is totally rounded off and i cant seem to get my impact driver in there to get it off any ideas on how to remove it ? any help would be great so i can get the beast back up and running tomorrow !
  12. hello guys and girls, i have finally returned hame from my 3 month work stint on a pissy island ! and when i got home i had a nice pile of boxes all with parts for my vr6, i have got.... 6 branch stainless manifold from hottuning(which i have started to heat wrap) de-cat pipe solid front engine mount oil catch tank and breather filter smoked rear lights powerboost valve bumper intakes cold air induction pipe piper cross induction kit polished heat shield for the air filter corrado inlet manifold and a load of polished pipe which im gonna use for the induction and i might even make my own bo
  13. mate ive got the same problem ! but my rear window switch also closes the sun roof !
  14. well ive been doin some e-mailing to schimmel performance and it works out as £310 for 263 cams and delivery ! thats quite a good price i think !?
  15. i was looking on e-bay earlyer and came across this little puppy ! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1991-VOLKSWAGEN-GOLF-GTI-VR6-TURBO_W0QQitemZ130327371355QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAutomobiles_UK?hash=item1e581dde5b&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14
  16. i picked one up on e-bay 2 weeks ago for 99p and £10 postage !
  17. why would you do that to a golf.........why??????
  18. well ive had a few problems with tesco fuel once in my car and in my moto x bike and so have some of my mates ! but maybe its the way its stored in the staton mind you i do live in cornwall maybe the rain water just gets into the statons tanks ?!
  19. mate i had 2 mega missing problems on my old cavalier gsi one of them turned out to be tesco petrol which is apparently the worst grade of fuel you can buy ! and the other time was the engine temperature sensor which was broke and it was telling the ecu that the car was running hot(even when it was stone cold) so then the ecu was flooding the chambers with fuel to try and cool it down. but all it was doing was making the engine miss and backfire !

  21. did you see all the gauges on the dashbord and how quick he had to keep changing gear the boost on that thing must be intense !
  22. theres a sick video on you tube of that blue 4x4 twin turbo vr6, hes on the drag strip and lets the other car take off about 4 seconds befor him and he still spanks it ! its filmed from inside the car and that thing makes some crazy noises !
  23. are 263 good to use on a n/a vr6 befor i charge it ? i emailed schimmel and asked how much the postage will be to the uk. also when i fit them will i have to get a re-map and do i use my old cam sprockets ?
  24. i was looking at them on the schimmel performance website, but i wasnt sure it is a toss up between 263's and 268's ! and they are pretty cheap compaired to cams which i have brought in the past !
