    Hi there, There gears on my GF's VR6 (93) was getting a bit hard. So I did an adjustment which improved things. However, I notised that the bushings holding the Gear-stick to the metal rod is completely perished, and its subsequently steel on steel. Although the car shifts ok, the mechanism is rather noisy. Are there any bushings available to replace these? Cheers!

    Ive got a Corrado with a 2,9 ABV engine. The Engine is toast (Chain failure) Ive got a complete 92' Golf OBD1 2,8 AAA ready to break. What issues will I meet putting the AAA engine in the Corrado, if any? Plug and play? Cheers!

    Sure. Sorted. It was the clipthing that holds the upper cable to the gearshift mechanism on the gearbox that was broken off. Adjusting the cables is quite easy. you just need a 13mm wrench :-) its on the top of the gearbox.

    Hi there. Ive been doing some searching on this topic. One of my VR6's, 93, does not want to change into reverse. It started being ''harder'' to get into reverse about a week ago, and now my GF reports that its impossible. So, after doing some searching I found that this is a cable operated system? I also found an ''adjustment procedure'' on this site: http://www.houseofthud.com/shifting_gti.htm can someone confirm that this is correct for my car? The gearoil is fairly new, and the other gears function just fine. Any input here before I get my hands dirty?

    Too much stretch for me. Just don like the look. So I suppose the 9'' rears are out of the question..

    Too much stretch is out of the quiestion.

    I see there are a lot of ideas here on brake fluid. Here are a few boiling points: (dry / wet / after 6 months) Castrol SRF 590 518 554 NEO Super DOT 585 421 503 Motul Racing 600 585 421 503 Motul DOT 5.1 509 365 437 ATE Type 200/ATE Super Blue 536 392 464 I have used all of these, except the NEO one, with an excellent result. The best one is DOT 4.... Castrol SRF rocks!!!

    What is the highest offset possible at the back with 9'' wheels? 20mm? 25mm?? Does anyone know?
  17. 993turbo
    hmmm, Ok. I dont want poke. 205/40 on a 9'' inch rim will STRECH loads..

    Wheels are not for sale.... Ive had them for some time...
  20. 993turbo
    I want the wheels as far in as possible. (tuck) if that is possible on the MkIII with 8 and 9's. Ive been tipped that Et25 up front and 15 rear would be good? Any comments on this? My wheels are high ET, so no issues, just need to decide the size of the adapters
  21. 993turbo
    hmmm, I have a set of BBS RS of a Porsche laying around. 8 inch front and 9 inch rear. What offset (et) is ideal to fit these wheels on a VR6? Also, what tires size am I looking at. Any input is appreciated!

    Im running without on both VR's. No issues.
  23. 993turbo
    Hmmmmmm, I have my doubts. The lambda sensor only gives a voltage feedback to the ECU. Lean - OK - Rich. So any performance gains would be in the ECu's interpretation of the signal.........
  24. 993turbo
    yeah... The reason Im asking is that one of my VR's, a 93 OBD 1, with cat had the Lambda sensor without Letter. The car was running perfect. The other 93' Vr, had the ''A'' lambda (which is the correct one) And I have a NEW VW, AK lamda laying on the shelf, so I wonder if it would work, if I changed the plug, or if it would be a drama....
  25. 993turbo
    hehe, I know very well what model my car is. And I know very well what car the different sensors belong to. What I am asking is if anyone knows what the difference between the sensors are....................................
